  • Publication number: 20240378377
    Abstract: The Controversy Resolution Assistant Engine Machine Learning Apparatuses, Processes and Systems (“CRAEML”) transforms matter milestone interaction input datastructure/inputs via CRAEML components into matter milestone interaction output outputs. A matter milestone interaction request datastructure is obtained. Milestone document details are determined via an NLP engine. The milestone document details are evaluated via a first ML prediction logic datastructure to determine relevant matter data. Similar prior matters are determined by executing a search query. The milestone document details, the relevant matter data and similar prior matters data are evaluated via a second ML prediction logic datastructure to determine a best matching resolution document template. Template placeholder values for a template placeholder of the best matching resolution document template are generated via an LLM. User selection of a template placeholder value is obtained.

  • Patent number: 11429965
    Abstract: A method for obscuring a value of a sensitive data element includes: (a) receiving the sensitive data element, the sensitive data element being received over a data communications network (110) at a hardware computing device (142) of a trusted tokenization service provider (140); (b) generating a token corresponding to the received sensitive data element; (c) storing the token and sensitive data element in a memory device (146) such that they are correlated with one another; (d) providing the generated token to a first party (130) that uses the token in place of the sensitive data element in a request for authorization to complete a transaction, the request being sent from the first party (130); (e) intercepting the request for authorization including the token; (f) using the token contained in the intercepted request to look-up and retrieve the correlated sensitive data element in the memory device (160); (g) replacing the token contained in the request with the sensitive data element retrieved from the memo

  • Patent number: 11023886
    Abstract: The UNIVERSAL ELECTRONIC PAYMENT APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“UEP”) transform touchscreen inputs into a virtual wallet mobile application interface via UEP components into purchase transaction triggers and receipt notices. In one implementation the UEP provides, via a user device, a product information search request; and obtains, in response to the product information search request, information on a first product for sale by a first merchant and a second product for sale by a second merchant. The UEP generates a single purchase transaction request, using the information on the first product for sale by the first merchant and the second product for sale by the second merchant. The UEP provides, via the user device, the single purchase transaction request for payment processing. Also, the UEP obtains an electronic purchase receipt for the first product for sale by the first merchant and the second product for sale by the second merchant.

  • Publication number: 20180089753
    Abstract: Systems, gateway computers, and methods for using a gateway abstraction layer and application platform interfaces for conducting service transactions are disclosed. A gateway abstraction layer computers can receive service requests in multiple message formats or communication protocols, transform those service requests into other message formats to process the service using one or more networks or third-party service providers. The results of the service request can then be translated back to the message format in which the original service request was received. The gateway abstraction layer can be maintained using update messages received from service providers.
