Methods, apparatus, systems, computing devices, computing entities, and/or the like for contextually optimizing routings for interactions. This may include receiving an interaction, wherein the interaction is selected from the group consisting of a voice-based interaction and a textual-based interaction; receiving an interaction problem statement for the interaction; generating, based at least in part on the interaction problem statement, an interaction problem statement summary, wherein the interaction problem statement comprises the context of the interaction; identifying one or more features for the interaction, wherein the features are input for one or more machine learning models; predicting an optimal route for the interaction, wherein the optimality of each route, hence, the optimal route is determined by the one or more machine learning models; and routing the interaction to the optimal route.
