US Patent 11645595 Predictive capacity optimizer

Embodiments of the invention are directed to techniques that include predicting, by a computer system, a number of predicted opportunities and signatures of the predicted opportunities expected in a time window. Based on the signatures of the predicted opportunities, the computer system generates a listing of entities ranked according to signatures of the predicted opportunities. The computer system selects the entities to be assigned to the predicted opportunities based, at least in part, on computing capacity related to sales while accounting for any current opportunities having been assigned to the entities.
