Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional social media and database systems are not suited for real-time creation, organization, and management of content or data points associated with time-sensitive events, leading to difficulties in finding, manipulating, and moderating content, with issues like lost archived content, tag conflicts, and the presence of inaccurate or malicious content.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for creating and organizing content and data points in real-time, allowing curated interactions between multiple sources, with features like time-demarcated information presentation, moderated interactions, and role assignment for specific social media handles or identities, enabling storage, distribution, publication, analysis, and retrieval in various formats.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If conventional social media systems organize content by most recent to oldest, then content is automatically organized chronologically, but archived content is lost within an indistinguishable stream of other content

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautomatic chronological organizationVSAvoidarchived content visibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the content stream into distinct event-based collections rather than a single chronological stream. Each event creates a separate container that groups related content together, allowing archived content to be retrieved and displayed as a coherent unit rather than being lost in the general stream.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds an event-based organizational dimension alongside the temporal dimension. Content is organized not only by time (when it was posted) but also by event (what event it relates to), creating a multi-dimensional organization system that preserves archived content through event associations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If conventional tools allow open content submission from multiple sources, then content variety and participation are increased, but inaccurate or malicious content appears in the feed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent source diversityVSAvoidcontent accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary moderation actions by assigning roles and permissions before content submission occurs. Moderators are designated in advance with specific authorities to approve, reject, or flag content, preventing inaccurate or malicious content from appearing in the feed while maintaining open participation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms where moderators review submitted content and provide decisions that affect what appears in the feed. This feedback loop allows the system to maintain content diversity while ensuring reliability through active moderation oversight.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Device complexity

If conventional systems use generic event tags for content categorization, then content organization is simplified, but tag or event identification conflict occurs causing unrelated content to appear

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent organization simplicityVSAvoidcontent relevance
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by making event tags specific and contextual rather than generic. Each event receives a unique identifier and specific metadata that describes its particular characteristics, allowing the system to distinguish between different events even with similar themes and prevent unrelated content from being incorrectly associated.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

4Productivity

If conventional tools lack content collection moderation, then content submission is easier and faster, but editorial oversight is absent allowing malicious content to spread

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent submission speedVSAvoidmalicious content impact
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces moderators as intermediary entities between content submitters and the content feed. Moderators act as a buffer that can quickly process content submissions while providing necessary editorial oversight, maintaining both submission speed and content safety through their intermediary role.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Disclosed are systems, methods, and products for creating, organizing, storing, archiving and publishing content and data points on a real-time basis based on multiple inputs from different sources, including the creation of content and data within the application, the creation of related or summary content and data on social media platforms, the facilitation of non-curated external interactions on social media platforms about, or related to, the curated content and data, and the inclusion of content and data extracted from social media platforms in response to related or summary content and data. The system, methods and products permit variable content moderation during the content creation process dependent on assigned roles. These systems and methods permit assignment of roles for the purpose of curated interactions and allow for content from multiple content providers to be juxtaposed in a dialogue or interview or debate format rather than individual, concatenated feeds.
