  • Publication number: 20240152992
    Abstract: A system, method and computer-readable storage medium are disclosed herein. The system includes one or more servers, one or more processors and a memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations. The operations include receiving data and information associated with a user, and executing a first ML algorithm to select which other ML algorithm to execute to determine a value profile associated with a collateral asset. Additional ML algorithms are executed to generate a collateral profile associated with the collateral asset, an activity profile associated with a user, and a household profile associated with the user. Data from among the profiles is combined to generate a digital asset, and advanced analytics are applied to the digital asset, in connection with rules and policies, to identify a user-specific product offering. The user-specific product offering is communicated to the user.

  • Publication number: 20240085989
    Abstract: Systems and methods for radial gesture navigation are provided. In example embodiments, user input data is received from a user device. The user input data indicates a continuous physical user interaction associated with a display screen of the user device. An initial point and a current point are detected from the user input data. A radius distance for a circle that includes the current point and is centered about the initial point is determined. An action is selected from among multiple actions based on the radius distance being within a particular range among successive ranges along a straight line that starts at the initial point and extends through the circle. Each range among the successive ranges corresponds to a particular action among the multiple actions. The selected action is performed in response to detecting a completion of the continuous physical user interaction.

  • Patent number: 11627194
    Abstract: Systems and methods for causing display of a messaging achievement pictograph based on messaging activity are provided. In some example embodiments, a message activity communication is received by a messaging activity service from a client device, the messaging active communication causing and adjustment to a message activity score and the message activity score transgressing a first threshold activity score. Responsive to the message activity transgressing the first threshold activity score, an achievement pictograph is displayed on the client device. In some example embodiments, the pictograph may be ephemeral and removal of the pictograph may be triggered by a designated time or by the message activity score transgressing a second threshold activity score. In some example embodiments, a notification is generated that notifies a user of the display or removal from display of the achievement pictograph.

  • Publication number: 20170357784
    Abstract: A method for license management. The method includes making a first determination by a local license server of a coordination point that a feature license that is not available on the local license server is required by the local license server. The method further includes, based on the first determination: sending, by the coordination point, a license availability request to an auto activation server, receiving, by the coordination point and from the auto activation server, information about available feature licenses, and sending, by the local license server of the coordination point to a central license manager, an activation request specifying the feature license. The specified feature license is one of the available feature licenses. The method further includes, in response to sending the activation request: receiving, by the local license server from the central license manager, an activated feature license.
