Solution Overview

Problem

Unplanned changes to government agency web portals frequently cause failures in automated electronic document filing systems, leading to labor-intensive and error-prone manual recovery efforts, especially during peak filing periods.

Innovation Solution

A system that proactively detects breaking changes in web portals through clickstream recordings, generates automated filing instructions, and updates the filing system dynamically, minimizing manual intervention and enabling efficient scaling based on actual filing loads.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If manual recovery efforts are used to reconcile failed transmissions, then transmission failures can be resolved, but labor intensity and error rates increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission success rateVSAvoidmanual effort required
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service by automatically detecting breaking changes through health checks and self-correcting by regenerating filing instructions through clickstream recording, eliminating the need for manual intervention to resolve transmission failures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by continuously monitoring web portal health and detecting breaking changes before they cause transmission failures, and automatically regenerating instructions to prevent service disruption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If automated filing systems are updated frequently to adapt to web portal changes, then adaptability improves, but system complexity and maintenance effort increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to web portal changesVSAvoidsystem update complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by continuously monitoring web portal health and detecting breaking changes before they cause transmission failures, and automatically regenerating instructions to prevent service disruption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback from health check results and transmission failure events to automatically trigger clickstream recording and instruction regeneration, creating a closed-loop system that adapts to web portal changes without manual intervention

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If manual recovery efforts are scaled to handle peak filing loads, then transmission failures can be recovered, but resource overhead and costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecovery capacityVSAvoidresource overhead
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The automated system performs self-service by detecting breaking changes and regenerating filing instructions without requiring human operators, eliminating the need to scale manual recovery resources during peak loads

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces manual mechanical recovery efforts with automated computational processes including health checks, clickstream recording, and instruction regeneration, which can handle peak loads without proportional increases in resource overhead

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

AI summary

A system and method for dynamic script generation for automated filing services is provided. In embodiments, a method includes: initiating a clickstream recording of an electronic document filing interface of a remote platform based on a triggering event; generating a clickstream recording of the electronic document filing interface, wherein the clickstream recording comprising a recording of a navigation of the electronic document filing interface through multiple steps of a document filing process, wherein the clickstream recording is in the form of scripts associated with each of the multiple steps of the document filing process; and generating automated filing instructions for the electronic document filing interface using the clickstream recording, the automated filing instructions enabling computer automated submission of one or more documents to the remote platform via the electronic document filing interface.
