  • Patent number: 11720641
    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for retrieving database records are presented. A method includes receiving an access request for database records, identifying a primary database record corresponding to the access request, and selecting a set of secondary database records corresponding to a portion of the access request. The method determines a set of differentiating elements within records of the set of secondary database records. Each differentiating element distinguishes at least one record of the set of secondary database records from one or more of the primary database record and a portion of the records included in the set of secondary database records. The method generates a formatted search interface including a set of selectable interface icons representing one or more differentiating elements and causes presentation of the formatted search interface at a client device associated with the access request.
