The example method further includes predicting, by utilizing a machine learning (ML) model, a set of SPA opportunities that each have a respective cost and a respective confidence interval and that satisfy a confidence interval threshold. The example method further includes determining a first SPA opportunity corresponding to a highest respective confidence interval, and a second SPA opportunity corresponding to a lowest cost of each SPA opportunity in the set of SPA opportunities; and transmitting a notification of the first and second SPA opportunities for display to a user.
