  • Patent number: 11243658
    Abstract: Techniques described herein are directed to generating and presenting customized directives for facilitating interactions between user(s) and user interface(s) associated with a content service provider. In an example, the content service provider may determine a state associated with a user based on user data associated with the user. Additionally, the content service provider may receive context data identifying an action performed by the user in association with content item(s) presented via a graphical user interface (GUI) and may determine an intent of the user based at least partly on the context data. Based at least partly on the state associated with the user and the intent of the user, the content service provider may determine a directive for prompting the user to access and/or use a feature associated with the content service provider and may cause a change to the GUI to communicate the directive.

  • Publication number: 20180121510
    Abstract: Described are systems and methods that suggest candidate recipients to receive an object identifier from a first user. For example, a first user, independent of a conversation with a second user, may select, close-up, or otherwise view an object identifier. The system, upon detecting the interaction with the object identifier by the first user, may determine one or more second users to suggest to the first user as candidate recipients with which the first user can share the viewed object identifier. The systems and methods may also suggest object identifiers to share with a selected recipient and/or determine two or more users that have a common connection and share an object identifier related to the connection with each of those users.
