  • Publication number: 20260352764
    Abstract: A system and method for capturing user consent and identity through telecommunications channels resolves that identity against external transaction systems and enables a continuous, bidirectional data loop powering real-time, AI-driven personalized messaging. A persistent user identity profile anchored to a telecommunications identifier is maintained by an interaction control server. An event ingestion engine receives identity-linked activity signals from external transaction systems and normalizes them to a canonical schema. A matchback processor associates each signal with the telecommunications identifier using deterministic and probabilistic matching. An artificial intelligence decisioning engine determines and dispatches a personalized messaging action in response to each matched signal. A predictive consumption module infers per-user product depletion windows and autonomously triggers replenishment messaging.
