AI summary

A system for assisting a customer is provided. The system comprises a database comprising multimedia files, wherein one or more tags are associated with one or more of the multimedia files. The system further comprises a virtual agent server 100 configured to receive input from a first user (customer) and a second user (customer service representative). Further, the virtual agent server 100 processes the received input to understand a context of the input.
