  • Patent number: 11455461
    Abstract: Self-executing document revision includes creating a current version of an electronic rendering of a collaborative document based on input received from a user via a communicative coupling with a data communications network. The current version's relevancy is determined by a self-executing document revisor and compared with the relevancy of a prior version of the collaborative document. In response to determining the relevancy of the current version is less than the relevancy of the prior version, one or more segments of one or more electronically stored versions of the collaborative document are selected based on a relevancy of each of the one or more segments, the relevancy of each determined by the self-executing document revisor. The self-executing document revisor generates a graphical representation of a revised version of the collaborative document by merging the one or more segments selected with the current version of the collaborative document.

  • Patent number: 11429783
    Abstract: A computing system receives a request to generate one or more narrative frameworks for a worksheet. The worksheet is hosted by a third party server. The computing system interfaces with the third party server to retrieve data associated with the worksheet. The computing system infers attributes of the worksheet from the retrieved data. The attributes correspond to a type of data represented in the worksheet. The computing system generates a narrative template for the one or more narrative frameworks. The computing system generates one or more data variables for the one or more narrative frameworks based on the generated narrative template. The computing system constructs the one or more narrative frameworks by selectively retrieving data from the worksheet for each data variable of the one or more data variables in the narrative framework.
