  • Patent number: 11900479
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for calculating a trust score. The trust score may be calculated between entities including, but not limited to, human users, groups of users, organizations, or businesses/corporations. A system trust score may be calculated for an entity by combining a variety of factors, including verification data, a network connectivity score, publicly available information, and/or ratings data. A peer trust score targeted from a first entity to a second entity may also be calculated based on the above factors. In some embodiments, the peer trust score may be derived from the system trust score for the target entity and may take into account additional factors, including social network connections, group/demographic info, and location data. Finally, a contextual trust score may be calculated between the first and second entities based on a type of transaction or activity to be performed between the two entities.

  • Publication number: 20220300538
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for searching for entities based on trust score and geography. The trust score may be calculated between entities including, but not limited to, human users, groups of users, organizations, or businesses/corporations and may take into account a variety of factors, including verification data, network connectivity, publicly available information, ratings data, group/demographic information, location data, and transactions to be performed, among others. A user may search for entities within a certain geographic location that meet a desired trust score. The results of the search may be generated for display on a user device, for example, by generating a map that shows the current location of the user device and the identified entities. The search may be filtered by entering an anticipated activity or transaction to be performed or desired by the user, and thereby returning entities that are associated with the activity or transaction.
