  • Publication number: 20250077790
    Abstract: The technology relates to systems and methods for generating advanced feedback for a draft message. The operations may include receive text for a message being drafted in a messaging application; upon an analysis condition being satisfied, analyze the message by applying at least one of a message-analysis model or heuristic to generate a feedback score for the message; and based on the feedback score crossing a feedback threshold, trigger generation of advanced feedback for the message. The operations may also or alternatively include receive an initial sent message from a messaging application; analyze the message by applying at least one of a message-analysis model or heuristic to generate a feedback score for the message; based on the feedback score crossing a feedback threshold, transmit a feedback alert message for surfacing in the messaging application; and based on receiving an interaction, trigger generation of advanced feedback for the message.

  • Patent number: 12177177
    Abstract: A noise management system analyzes messages from a sender to a plurality of recipients. The noise management system prepares a message frequency of a quantity of messages sent to a unique recipient over a period of time. The noise management system sends the message frequency with a noise rank to the client device for the recipient to review.

  • Patent number: 11379798
    Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for surfacing content related to electronic calendar events are presented. An electronic calendar event library may be maintained. One or more calendar events that meet threshold time criteria in relation to a current time may be identified. One or more rules may be applied to the identified events to determine whether contextual information and/or actions should be surfaced in relation to those events. In some examples, an event priority score may be calculated for each of the identified events. Contextual information and/or actions associated with events with event priority scores that exceed a threshold value may be surfaced. The contextual information and/or actions may be prioritized based on the event priority scores.
