  • Publication number: 20240135441
    Abstract: A system and method that facilitates a private transaction is disclosed. The system can retrieve textual information of a webpage containing vehicle sale related information for a vehicle listed for sale by an individual. Using a natural language processing (NLP) model, the textual information may be analyzed to extract vehicle sale related information for the vehicle. The system can compare the vehicle sale related information to known parameters for the vehicle to verify the authenticity of the vehicle sale related information. Based on verifying the authenticity of the vehicle sale related information, the system can determine whether to approve financing for the vehicle. Based on determining to approve financing for the vehicle, financing terms may be generated for the vehicle. The financing terms may be transmitted to client devices.

  • Publication number: 20230252096
    Abstract: Aspects described herein may allow for generating a filter list to facilitate users to refine their online search. Data items displayed on a web page may be determined based on the user’s input data, for example, based on a selection command selecting the data items. Each data item corresponds to a feature of a product. Filters corresponding to the data items may be determined and the weight of each filter may be updated. A filter list may be generated and displayed to facilitate the user to refine his search for a class of products. The filters on the filter list may be automatically ordered based on the weight of each filter. In this way, a user may be able to find filters that are associated with features that he cares about the most and therefore use the filter list to obtain more satisfying results.
