  • Content frames for productivity applications
    Patent number: 11468228
    Abstract: Content frames can be provided for productivity applications through a content frame platform. The platform can detect a sequence of similar documents (“a document run”) and provide functionality to easily create the next document in the sequence through a content frame. The platform can receive a trigger for a content frame for a new document; and, in response, determine whether the new document belongs to a document run. In response to determining the new document belongs to a document run, the platform can determine at least two documents in the document run to be used to create the content frame and identify common content between the at least two documents in the document run. The content frame, which can include at least an outline for the new document and sections of updatable content for the new document, can be generated using the common content and provided for display and/or editing.
