  • Patent number: 12099563
    Abstract: A user device stores a local application including initial search records and an initial search function. Each initial search record includes an application link that opens an application page and search data that describes the application page. The initial search function is configured to select from the initial search records. The user device executes the local application to request and receive search update data from a remote system. The search update data includes updated search records and an updated search function. The user device updates the initial search records and the initial search function with the updated search records and the updated search function. The user device receives a search query from a requesting application, selects a set of updated search records based on the search query and the updated search function, and provides a response to the requesting application including application links from the set of updated search records.

  • Patent number: 12073478
    Abstract: Systems and methods for intellectual property (IP) asset protection are disclosed. For example, by analyzing characteristic information associated with a user, along with feedback from one or more potential insurers, the system may determine various terms of an insurance policy for protecting the user against claims of IP infringement. The policy may provide for financial reimbursement for costs incurred while taking active measures to mitigate losses and/or defend against such claims. In addition, the system may analyze the characteristic information to identify various users having a low exposure of an infringement claim being asserted. The identified users may be actively targeted to acquire an IP protection policy.

  • Patent number: 12013745
    Abstract: A method is provided for monitoring operation of and/or interaction with a website to detect events (“frustration events”). A detection system can monitor a website for the same or unrelated interaction and operation to detect events that affect the performance of a website, while contributing to the frustration of user interaction with the website. The detection system can monitor interaction with and/or operation of one or more documents of a website. Interactions with a website, operations of the website, or a combination thereof, may be assessed with respect to a threshold defining an event. One or more criteria (e.g., a time period) of the event may be assessed for the interactions and operations. Event data may be generated for the event(s) that occur. The event data may be sent to a host system to adjust operation of the website.

  • Patent number: 11941145
    Abstract: A method includes sequentially generating fragment records for a user device according to fragment generation rules specifying that each subsequent fragment record be generated for user device events that occur within a defined period of time. Each fragment record includes event data for a series of user device events and includes a fragment ID generated using a non-deterministic ID generation algorithm. The method includes generating an ID-fragment record associating a chain ID with the fragment IDs. The chain ID is associated with device IDs that identify the user device. The method includes removing associations between the chain ID and fragment IDs according to removal parameters indicating that associations be removed based on an age of the fragment records. The method includes generating at least one of search results and advertisements for the user device based on the event data in the fragment records that remain associated with the chain ID.

  • Publication number: 20240080355
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for identifying issues related to digital interactions. For example, a detection system may be provided to analyze suspect sessions to determine if one or more stages associated with the suspect sessions are underperforming compared to corresponding stages associated with similar sessions. The detection system may provide a user interface that allows a user to select one or more attributes that may be associated with one or more sessions. Selection of the one or more attributes may identify multiple sessions (referred to as suspect sessions herein). The one or more suspect sessions may be analyzed to determine whether one or more stages associated with the one or more suspect sessions are underperforming compared to corresponding stages associated with one or more other sessions determined to be similar to the one or more suspect sessions.
