Solution Overview

Problem

Existing technologies face challenges in generating customer or user lists due to difficulties in opt-in management for anonymous or semi-anonymous users, particularly across multiple online platforms, and lack flexibility and coverage across various channels, including digital and physical opt-ins.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for automated opt-in list generation using text redirect, involving a call-to-action element that triggers a text message to auto-populate a unique identifier and consumer financial information, which is evaluated by a credit analysis manager and optionally integrated with a universal identification and passport manager for pre-qualified credit offers.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional opt-in forms and manual enrollment processes are used, then user information can be collected, but the process becomes time-consuming and reduces conversion opportunities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveopt-in collection efficiencyVSAvoiduser time spent on enrollment
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-populates opt-in forms with user information automatically retrieved from social media profiles and other data sources. This preliminary action eliminates the need for users to manually enter their information, significantly reducing enrollment time while maintaining data accuracy and completeness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables users to opt-in by simply tapping a button or interacting with a QR code, allowing them to self-enroll without requiring manual form filling or customer service assistance. The automated information retrieval and form population processes handle the complex tasks behind the scenes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Adaptability or versatility

If opt-in opportunities are introduced through multiple channels and platforms, then coverage and flexibility improve, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemulti-channel opt-in coverageVSAvoidopt-in management system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system is designed to operate across multiple platforms and channels (social media, websites, mobile apps, physical locations with QR codes) using a unified architecture. A single opt-in mechanism can function across different contexts, eliminating the need for separate systems for each channel and reducing overall complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary layer that standardizes communication between various channels and the central opt-in management platform. This mediator handles platform-specific protocols and data formats, allowing diverse channels to integrate seamlessly without increasing core system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Quantity of substance

If user information is collected for marketing purposes, then customer lists can be generated, but privacy concerns and consent verification become more difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustomer list sizeVSAvoidconsent verification accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements explicit consent verification mechanisms where users must actively confirm their opt-in preference through button taps, QR code scans, or other clear actions. This feedback loop ensures that only users who have provided explicit consent are added to marketing lists, maintaining high reliability of consent verification while still enabling list growth

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A system and method for automated opt-in list generation via text redirect. The first step is engagement by a user computing device, such as a mobile phone, with a call-to-action element that may be embedded in various media including a QR code or link that triggers a text message to auto-populate on the user computing device. The auto-populated message comprises a unique identifier. The second step is for the user to tap to send the auto-populated message to a list opt-in manager, which verifies the user's consent, formats the user's information according to the client's opt-in instructions, and sends the formatted user information to the client's CRM. Optionally, the system may integrate with a universal identification and passport manager.
