Abstract: One method retrieves, by a connector engine, communication data between a user communication device and a decision engine in response to identifying communications between the user communication device and the decision engine, the decision engine configured to receive user communication device input and provide the user communication device with a set of decision options. The method then retrieves, by the connector engine, at least one vendor option from a marketing database based on the communications between the user communication device and the decision engine. The method then outputs, by the connector engine, the at least one vendor option.

Abstract: A method for comparing decision options automatically determines factors for a set of decision options. Each of the factors defines a respective attribute of the set of decision options. The method provides the factors to a graphical user interface. The method receives a user preference value for at least one factor. The method then normalizes an attribute value of each factor. The method calculates a user preference score for each decision option as a function of the user preference value and the normalized attribute value for each factor. The method ranks the set of decision options based on the calculated user preference score for the subject decision option relative to each other decision option of the set of decision options. The method provides a ranked list of the set of decision options to the graphical user interface in response to ranking the set of decision options.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for interfacing a decision engine and a marketing engine in order to provide vendor-related data in response to decision-related data is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the system and method may include providing a decision engine on a user-accessible network, interfacing a marketing engine with the decision engine on the network; receiving a plurality of user inputs with the decision engine; processing decision-related data with the decision engine in accordance with the plurality of user inputs; sharing the decision-related data with the marketing engine; processing the decision-related data with the marketing engine; and transmitting vendor-related data via the network.

Abstract: A method for comparing decision options includes storing a set of decision options. The method includes determining for each decision option of the set of decision options, a plurality of factors, wherein each of the plurality of factors defines a respective metric. The method includes receiving a plurality of user preference indicators, each indicator corresponding to a respective factor of the plurality of factors. The method includes ranking the set of decision options in response to receiving a first user preference indicator. The method includes providing the user with a ranked list of the set of decision options in response to receiving the first user preference indicator. The method includes reranking the set of decision options in response to receiving a second user preference indicator and providing the user with a reranked list of the set of decision options in response to receiving the second user preference indicator.
