Patent attributes
A method and system are provided that provide an avatar based customer service experience with a human support agent. The methods and systems receive, from a customer computing (CC) device, a request for assistance fulfillable by one of a plurality of support agents. The methods and systems launch an avatar-based exchange that includes receiving customer issue definition (CID) information from the CC device regarding the request for assistance, defining a virtual character to be presented on the CC device; and providing pre-recorded support (PRS) content based on the CID information. The PRS content is presented in combination with animation of the virtual character. The methods and systems select a support agent, and transition a basis for the avatar-based exchange from the PRS content to support agent content such that the support agent communicates with the customer through the virtual character animated on the CC device.
