  • Publication number: 20210326980
    Abstract: A method for providing an accurate evaluation of a borrower's creditworthiness includes using a network-connected aggregation server to aggregate records of a plurality of financial transactions from one or more network-connected financial institution servers, wherein each record of a financial transaction comprises a unique identifier associated with its transaction and using the records of the plurality of financial transactions to determine estimated financial information of the borrower. The estimated financial information of the borrower may include an estimated cash flow stream of the borrower, an estimated income stream of the borrower, an estimated trade line of the borrower, or estimated assets of the borrower. The method may also include using the estimated financial information of the borrower to create an evaluation of the borrower's creditworthiness and providing the evaluation of the borrower's creditworthiness to a recipient that is considering whether to extend a loan to the borrower.

  • Patent number: 10824320
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine at least one request to access a content item, wherein the content item was composed using a set of camera feeds that capture at least one scene from a set of different positions. A viewport interface can be provided on a display screen of the computing device through which playback of the content item is presented, the viewport interface being configured to allow a user operating the computing device to virtually navigate the at least one scene by changing i) a direction of the viewport interface relative to the scene or ii) a zoom level of the viewport interface. A navigation indicator can be provided in the viewport interface, the navigation indicator being configured to visually indicate any changes to a respective direction and zoom level of the viewport interface during playback of the content item.
