Solution Overview

Problem

Existing marketing systems struggle to adaptively generate leads efficiently and accurately, particularly when lead quality changes over time due to variations in publisher sources and user interactions, leading to inefficiencies in lead scoring and filtering.

Innovation Solution

A computerized marketing system that adapts lead scoring and filtering processes by monitoring scrub rates and adjusting scoring and filtering parameters in response to changes in lead quality, using predictive models and adaptive models to optimize lead selection based on real-time data analysis.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional static lead scoring and filtering systems are used, then system complexity is low, but lead generation accuracy deteriorates when lead quality changes over time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelead scoring accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic lead scoring by continuously updating scoring parameters based on real-time performance data. The system transitions from static thresholds to adaptive models that automatically adjust weights and criteria as lead quality patterns change, ensuring accurate scoring without manual intervention while managing complexity through automated learning algorithms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback loops where conversion outcomes from filtered leads are fed back into the scoring model. This closed-loop approach allows the system to learn from actual performance, automatically refining scoring parameters to maintain high accuracy. The feedback mechanism manages complexity by using automated statistical analysis rather than requiring complex manual tuning procedures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Quantity of substance

If lead filtering thresholds are lowered to capture more potential leads, then lead quantity increases, but lead quality deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenumber of leadsVSAvoidlead quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts filtering parameters based on real-time performance metrics and changing lead patterns. Rather than using fixed thresholds, the system modifies scoring weights, cutoff values, and criteria priorities automatically to maintain optimal lead quality. This allows the system to capture varying quantities of leads while preserving quality through adaptive parameter tuning rather than static rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Measurement precision

If lead scoring parameters are frequently adjusted to adapt to changing lead quality, then lead generation accuracy improves, but system stability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelead scoring accuracyVSAvoidscoring parameter stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements periodic retraining and parameter updates at optimized intervals rather than continuous changes. This periodic action allows the system to adapt to changing lead patterns while maintaining stability during intervals between updates. The system balances accuracy and stability by scheduling updates based on detected pattern changes or time intervals, preventing both stagnation and excessive volatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates validation and testing phases before implementing parameter changes. By cushioning against potential instability through preliminary evaluation of proposed changes, the system ensures that updates improve accuracy without causing harmful volatility. This protective mechanism maintains stability by filtering out potentially destabilizing changes while accepting beneficial ones.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

AI summary

Various examples are directed to systems and methods for adaptively generating leads. A marketing system may determine that a first lead score for a first lead is greater than a first lead score threshold and determine that a second lead score for a second lead is less than the first lead score threshold. The marketing system may generate a set of filtered leads including the first lead information from the first lead. The marketing system may determine a scrub rate that describes a portion of first execution cycle data having lead scores greater than the first lead score threshold and determine that the scrub rate is greater than an analysis window scrub rate by more than a scrub rate threshold. The marketing system may select a second lead score threshold that is lower than the first lead score threshold.
