Patent number: 12682376Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a network inventory service (NIS). An NIS may, for example, profile a private network for personalized advertising by recording a list of devices connected to the private network, recording traffic data for the private network, and generating profile associated with the private network based on the recorded list of devices and the recorded traffic data. The NIS may be notified, e.g., of a device within the private network, an advertising avail, request, from an advertising service, a targeted advertisement based on the user profile, and cause the targeted advertisement to be inserted in the advertising avail. In some embodiments, an NIS may work in conjunction with an inventory profile service (IPS) and/or an ad presentation service (APS). An IPS may deliver rules for analyzing new devices and/or network traffic and an APS may communicate with the NIS along with various advertiser networks to supply personalized ads.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2024Date of Patent: July 14, 2026Assignee: Adeia Guides Inc.Inventor: Warren Keith Edwards

Patent number: 12640247Abstract: A method is described for controlling operations of an automated refill system (AFS) to support automated communications with a plurality of interactive voice response (IVR) systems in fulfillment of a prescription order. Upon receiving a request message to refill a medicinal prescription order from a first IVR system, the AFS is configured to determine whether it is able to communicate with the first IVR system associated with a first pharmacy identified in the request message. Thereafter, the AFS determines whether the first IVR system associated with the first pharmacy provides a medication identified in the request message at a lowest cost. If so, the AFS continues operability with the first IVR system. Otherwise, the AFS selects a second IVR system associated with a second pharmacy to handle the refill order when the second pharmacy can provide the medication at a lowest cost.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2024Date of Patent: May 26, 2026Assignee: MH Sub I, LLCInventors: Or Maoz, Rizwan Zia, Joseph Jackson
