Example of the first is supertab (it though not only chooses completion method when tab is pressed, but also makes tab do indent). Example of the second is clang_complete. YCM and neocomplcache may also have such features, but I do not know for sure. They AFAIK have a mode in which completion menu is always shown when user is in insert mode.

     Another script that enters completion mode automatically is word_complete.vim:  http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=73 . It is not much more than proof of concept, which is bad if you want to use it but good if you want to see what it is doing.
