Patent number: 11941703Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating photo-based estimation are described. In an aspect, a server is configured to send via a communications module to a remote computing device a first signal comprising a chat interface. The server may receive, via the communications module and from the remote computing device, a second signal representing input received at the remote computing device through the chat interface. The server may identify an account associated with the remote computing device and retrieve policy data associated with the identified account from the data store. The server may automatically evaluate the input and policy data against predetermined criteria to determine whether a claim has a low risk level and, when the claim is determined to have a low risk level, engage a photo-based estimation module.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Denny Devasia Kuruvilla, Esli Gjini, Sarah Reeve, Harjot Singh Panag, Justin Seto, Naomi Sarah Feth, Anurag Thakur

Publication number: 20230110017Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating photo-based estimation are described. In an aspect, a computing device is configured to receive, from the camera, a signal comprising image data. The image data may represent at least a portion of a vehicle. The computing device may also retrieve data representing a preferred scene of the vehicle and determine, based on the image data and based on the data representing the preferred scene of the vehicle, whether the image data corresponds to the preferred scene of the vehicle. The server may, when the received image data corresponds to the preferred scene of the vehicle, enable capture of the image data. The server may send, via the communications module, a signal representing the captured image data to a processing server configured to analyze the captured image data to assess vehicular damage.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Applicant: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Denny Devasia KURUVILLA, Esli GJINI, Sarah REEVE, Harjot Singh PANAG, Justin SETO, Naomi Sarah FETH, Anurag THAKUR
