Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for providing a single point of interaction for communicating with a first agent and a second agent. An embodiment operates by a server sending a preliminary request for a preliminary response to the first agent and the second agent and, based on the preliminary request, receiving the preliminary response from the first agent. Thereafter, the server determines that the first agent is a preferred agent based on the preliminary response and maintains a line of communication to the preferred agent. The server then sends a follow-up request for a follow-up response different from the preliminary request to the preferred agent over the line of communication and receives the follow-up response from the preferred agent over the line of communication.

Abstract: A workflow assistant can provide for improved memory aids and workflow management. The workflow assistant can retrieve context information from a base application to facilitate the creation of memory aids and workflow management items. Textual analysis can be applied to user input to determine data elements, data objects, assistant items, and collections that may be relevant to a memory or workflow aid. The workflow assistant can suggest actions for a user to take, such as based on text analysis of user input or the contents of a collection. Technical features such as a context analyzer that retrieves information from the base application for access by the workflow assistant can make the workflow assistant more dynamic and reduce the user interaction needed to create or modify a memory or workflow aid.

Abstract: A unifit sleeve includes a base portion, a stem portion, and a conduit extending through the base portion and the stem portion. An outer flange faces outward and downward toward the base portion. A circumferential cavity occupies the space between the outer flange and the stem portion and a self-conforming member biases the outer flange away from the stem portion. A hydrophobic constituent may also be affixed to the inside of the outer flange and the outside of the stem portion to prevent ingressing moisture. The unifit sleeve may be fitted to a wireless earpiece or other wearable device.
