Patent number: 11853339Abstract: Disclosed are examples of a system, techniques and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that enable the selection of a response document template for generating an appropriate response to notification document. Respective components may generate an electronic document from the notification document. A common theme between two or more of the electronic documents may be identified. The electronic documents identified as having the common theme may be grouped in a notification document corpus. The notification document corpus may be analyzed with reference to received notification documents stored in a document repository. Based on results of the analysis, a template of a notification response document appropriate for responding to a specific notification document received by the enterprise may be selected. The selected response document template may be forwarded to a client device for further processing.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2022Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Joerg Rings, William Thomas Romano, Andre Gatorano
