  • Patent number: 11922484
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems, methods and computer readable media for facilitating delivery of a digital notification of a physical product to inform a recipient of the identity of the physical product. A digital notification may inform the recipient of the identity of a physical product ordered for the recipient by a sender. A digital unwrapping trigger may be utilized to ensure that the recipient is authorized to view the identity of the digital product. For example, the digital notification may not identify the identity of the physical product until a particular date has passed (e.g., a holiday or birthday), until the recipient performs a certain task, or until the recipient meets a certain goal. In response to the trigger occurring, the digital notification may be enabled for viewing of the identity of the physical product. The physical delivery of the product may be coordinated with delivery of the digital notification.

  • Publication number: 20230259973
    Abstract: Embodiments provide computer systems, computer-executable methods and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media for offering one or more promotions to consumers using a promotion and marketing service. User input may be received from a first consumer interface associated with a first consumer, the user input including an interest indication relating to a first promotion. An association between the first consumer and a second consumer for sharing of promotions may be programmatically retrieved or generated. Based on the association, it may be determined whether to offer the first promotion to the second consumer based on one or more characteristics associated with the second consumer. Based on a determination that the first promotion should be offered to the second consumer, an indication may be outputted, the indication configured to cause an impression of the first promotion to be generated on a second consumer interface associated with the second consumer.

  • Publication number: 20220382960
    Abstract: A method for rendering linked content in a first document is described. A first user entry of a first link in the first document is received at a computing device. The first link refers to a first set of content having a source location that is external to the first user entry. The first set of content is displayed with a first display format of the source location in a user interface that displays the first document. Displaying the first set of content includes retrieving, by the computing device, the first set of content using the first link. Displaying the first set of content also includes updating the user interface to display both the first set of content and a second set of content that is distinct from the first set of content.

  • Publication number: 20220383356
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems, methods and computer readable media for facilitating transfer of promotions. A promotion and marketing service may allow for assignment of one or more promotions to a first provider or consumer. A method for transferring promotions may include assigning a promotion to a first user account. The promotion may be redeemable by a first user account to obtain a good, service, or experience. The method may also include receiving a request to transfer the promotion to at least one second user account, receiving a promotion reassignment trigger, and in response to receiving the promotion reassignment trigger, assigning the promotion to the second user account using a processor, wherein assignment of the promotion to the second user account enables the second user account to redeem the promotion to obtain the good, service, or experience.

  • Publication number: 20220248005
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for processing video content. Content may be encoded/transcoded for delivery to a computing device that requested the content. The content may be encoded as temporally interlaced blocks, which interlaces frames over time. Because the frames are temporally interlaced, the computing device may be able to decode and play back a full-length or complete video at a reduced quality even if every temporally interlaced block was not received by the computing device, such as when network bandwidth is low or the network connection is disrupted. Receiving only a portion of the temporally interlaced blocks may be still be sufficient to display a full-length video at a reduced quality (e.g., at a reduced bit rate).

  • Publication number: 20210250441
    Abstract: Internet Protocol captioned telephone service often utilizing Automated Speech Recognition can be utilized with conference calls to separate out each of the various parties' speech as text, such as with text bubbles differentiated by caller on a device of the user. Additionally, a prioritized vocabulary can be provided for each user that is not shared with a public so that if the user utilizes words in their speech not common in the general public, those words can be more accurately identified by the telephone service. The service may learn and apply that vocabulary and/or the user may provide words to the service.

  • Publication number: 20210106019
    Abstract: A method of producing a non-dairy cheese includes fermenting non-dairy milk with lactic acid bacteria and mixing the fermented non-dairy milk with dry ingredients. The dry ingredients include one or more gums and one or more starches. The method further includes heating the fermented non-dairy milk and dry ingredients to 180 degrees and mixing oil into the fermented non-dairy milk in an in-line high shear mixer creating an oil/non-dairy milk mixture. The method further includes circulating the oil/non-dairy milk mixture through the inline high shear mixer until the droplet size of the oil in the non-dairy milk is 15 micrometers or less, removing air from the oil/non-dairy milk mixture, and packaging the oil/non-dairy milk mixture to yield a non-dairy cheese product.
