Abstract: A method for generating a singularity recommendation includes receiving structured and unstructured data for a user, where the structured and unstructured data for the user provide a first context for generating a singularity recommendation. The method, responsive to identifying a location for the user, determines ecosystem data based on the location for the user, where the ecosystem data provides a second context for generating the singularity recommendation. The method determines environmental data based on the location for the user, where the environmental data provides a second context for generating the singularity recommendation. The method generates the singularity recommendation based on the first context, the second context, and the third context directed to the user. The method displays the singularity recommendation in a user interface on a client device associated with the user.
