  • Patent number: 11934469
    Abstract: In an embodiment, the disclosure provides computer-implemented systems and methods for providing graph-based recommendations of digital media collaborators for content creators. In an embodiment, the disclosure provides computers programmed to implement a networked, online platform for facilitating collaboration between content creators. In an example embodiment, the platform provides a system for recommending a collaborator for a particular content creator to create content with, of a specific content type. In another example embodiment, the platform provides a system for recommending a collaborator for a particular content creator to create content with, without restricting the content type, using a community detection algorithm. In embodiments, recommendations may be made partly based on centrality measures of creator nodes on a network graph programmatically calculated between content nodes of that network graph, or content nodes of a community detected in the network graph.

  • Publication number: 20230024951
    Abstract: In an embodiment, the present disclosure provides computer-implemented systems and methods for automatic management of video content of a plurality of content creators. In an embodiment, the disclosure provides, among other things, computers programmed to implement a networked, online platform for facilitating collaboration between content creators and producers. In an embodiment, the platform is programmatically configured to provide a content creator with a Challenge function that includes a challenge management system with automated messaging and a reward system. In an embodiment, the platform is also programmatically configured to implement a Broadcast function useful to a content creator. In an embodiment, the platform is programmed to implement the foregoing functions using complete, defined workflows that efficiently facilitate collaboration among content creators via the Challenge function or the Broadcast function.

  • Patent number: 11367060
    Abstract: One example computer-implemented collaborative NFT method involves receiving and digitally storing a set of files, each file comprising digital content; programmatically associating the set of files with a corresponding unique project identifier; receiving digital input specifying a final digital composition comprising information from the set of files; digitally storing the final digital composition as a digital object in a database; receiving digital input specifying an allocation of authorship shares representing a distribution of ownership rights in the digital object; minting, on a blockchain, an NFT comprising a reference to the digital object; creating, on the blockchain, a smart contract specifying a fractional ownership of the digital object, the smart contract comprising a pointer to a metadata file associated with the NFT, the metadata file comprising one or more links to one or more corresponding digital assets associated with the NFT, each digital asset comprising a representation of the NFT.
