An identification of a plurality of disparate types of applications to be generated based on the designed experience is received. The experience is translated for each of the disparate types of applications to generate the plurality of applications of disparate types.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing content to a user device. Content is provided to a user via an e-book transmission channel via a network for display on a first application, wherein pre-defined metadata associated with the content identifies a content event trigger at a point in the content, wherein the content event trigger is associated with a user accessing a pre-specified point of the e-book. When the content event trigger is reached, a trigger signal is received via the network and transmitting supplemental content that was not previously accessible on the device over the network from a server to the device for access on a second mobile device application that is different from the first mobile device application.

Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are described for providing user access to content via customized options for a plurality of regions, a customized option being provided to a user based on a region associated with the user. An upload of content for distribution and metadata describing the content are received. A first option definition is received that defines first criteria for accessing the content in a first region. A second option definition defining second criteria for accessing the content in a second region is received. One or more options for the content are provided to the user based on the region associated with the user. An identification of an option is received from the user, and access to the content is provided according to the criteria of the option that the user has identified.

Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods of providing content to a user via communications between a content provider and a user over a plurality of disparate communication channels are provided. Content is provided to a user via a first transmission channel for presentation. Metadata associated with the content identifies a content event trigger at a point in the content. The content is displayed using a first presentation system. When the content event trigger is reached, supplemental content is provided to the user via a second transmission channel. The supplemental content is provided to the user during continued presentation of the content, and the supplemental content is provided to the user using a content providing system that is wholly separate from the first presentation system.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for granting a permission. A similarity score is calculated for each of a plurality of items and a particular item. A score is determined for each person in a pool for each of the plurality of items, wherein prescience scores are calculated based on an earliness of interaction metric and a number of interactions metric. For each person, a permission score is calculated for the particular item based on similarity scores for items and that person's score for items. A permission is granted to one or more people based on said permission scores.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for identifying an influencer from a pool of people based on past interactions with one or more items. A similarity score is calculated for each of a plurality of items. An affinity score is determined for each person in the pool of people for each of the plurality of items. A similar item affinity score is calculated for each person based on the similarity score for each item and the affinity score for that item.
