Patent number: 8516047Abstract: Apparatus include a communication interface, a trigger interface, computer-readable media encloded subscriber-originated recipient list data, and a user interface. The user interface is configured to display and receive input from, via a computer screen display, plural sets of screen-displayed destination setting selection indicators for individually configuring sets of destination settings for corresponding event types. Each set of destination settings corresponds to a corresponding one of plural selectable event types selectable for causing corresponding triggered messages to be sent including sending the given event-specific message to the corresponding list of recipients.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2007Date of Patent: August 20, 2013Inventors: Rick Castanho, Jeffrey Delaney, William Harry Kirtley, Robert Kuszewski, Robert Matthews, David A.

Patent number: 7609821Abstract: Transmission of messages composed on one or more input devices to a single or multiple recipients by means of one or plural communication modes is facilitated. Such communication modes may include conventional or wireless telephone, facsimile transmission, pager, e-mail, postal mail or courier. Thus, a message may be directed to a single recipient via multiple modes, such as e-mail and fax, in order to ensure the earliest possible receipt of the message; or may be directed to multiple recipients by a single mode or by different modes. In the case of multiple-mode delivery, “escalation” rules may specify conditions under which different delivery modes may be sequentially employed. Automatic follow-up to determine whether a message has been received, as well as automatic sender notification upon confirmation of receipt, may be employed. The system is capable of sending messages having embedded questions, and facilitating multi-question surveys.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2006Date of Patent: October 27, 2009Assignee: Varolii CorporationInventors: Jeffrey Delaney, William H. Kirtley, Robert Kuszewski, Robert Mathews, David Page, Martin Sarabura, Gregory Warden

Patent number: 7353256Abstract: Transmission of messages composed on one or more input devices to a single or multiple recipients by means of one or plural communication modes is facilitated. Such communication modes may include conventional or wireless telephone, facsimile transmission, pager, e-mail, postal mail or courier. An application program interface (API) mediates between remote applications requesting messaging functions and a message server that actually implements these functions. The API is capable of processing high-volume requests for message routing, status information, and various other functions on an automated basis, enabling businesses to make routine use of these functions.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2004Date of Patent: April 1, 2008Assignee: Varolii CorporationInventors: Jeffrey Delaney, William H. Kirtley, Robert Kuszewski, John Andrew Lash, Robert Mathews, David Page, Martin Sarabura, Gregory Warden
