Abstract
Methods and systems for intelligently joining a conference are provided. The method includes initiating a connection for a user to an audio conferencing service, such as through an alert or notification. The method also includes matching the user with contact details including user's name, email address, phone number, user ID, and/or enterprise. The method also includes determining a confidence score based on matching the user with the contact details to verify an identity of the user when the confidence score exceeds a predetermined threshold. The method also includes searching calendar data for a meeting involving the user based on the contact details of the user, the meeting being scheduled proximate to a current time, the calendar data having a scheduled start time and a scheduled end time for the meeting. The method also includes joining the user to the meeting via the audio conferencing service based on the calendar data.
