Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional messaging systems lack adequate features for assisting users in selecting recipients, generating, sending, presenting, or refining messages, particularly for cycle messages, leading to tedious and inefficient manual processes.

Innovation Solution

The messaging system provides improved message management by automatically selecting recipients, generating, tracking, personalizing, and optimizing messages through message objects and machine-learning models that utilize customary messaging data to generate message features and workflows, enhancing user navigation and processing efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Extent of automation

If conventional messaging systems are used for cycle messages, then basic message sending is possible, but significant manual user intervention is required for recipient selection, message generation, and tracking across multiple cycles

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautomation of message managementVSAvoidmanual user intervention
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service automation by automatically performing message management tasks including recipient selection based on communication circles, message generation using templates and customizations, and tracking across multiple cycles without requiring manual user intervention for each action

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring communication circles, message templates, and cycle parameters before the messaging process begins, allowing the automated system to execute subsequent actions without requiring real-time manual input

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If manual processes are used for managing cycle messages, then flexibility in message customization is possible, but processing efficiency and user navigation speed are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemessage processing efficiencyVSAvoidtime for message management
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system replaces manual mechanical processes with automated computing operations, using algorithms to perform recipient selection, message generation, and cycle tracking tasks that previously required manual user actions, thereby significantly improving processing efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses message templates and communication circle configurations as reusable copies that can be automatically instantiated and customized for each cycle, eliminating the need to manually create each message from scratch and reducing time loss

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

Various embodiments, methods, and systems for implementing message management are provided. Message management includes assisting with selecting recipients for messages, and generating, tracking, personalizing, and optimizing messages. The messaging system provides message operations for cycle messages, message tracking interface features, and automatically generating message feature values. In operation, for automatically generating message feature values, a first message to be generated is determined to correspond to a message type. The message type comprises one or more message features, where the one or more messaging features are generated based on customary messaging data. A machine-learning model supports identifying the automatically generated message feature value. A message user interface comprising a message user interface feature is generated based on the message type, such that a first message feature is received to generate the first message based on the automatically generated message feature value. The generated first message is sent to a communication circle.
