Information Processing Apparatus for Value-Added Service Agreement
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face difficulty in agreeing to data coordination due to complex rules and regulations, leading to distrust and avoidance of data distribution, as existing systems overwhelm them with numerous service options and granularity choices.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that acquires user data, determines value-added services from a second operator, and generates a message requesting data provision agreement, focusing on value-added services related to the primary service, thereby reducing information overload and facilitating agreement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If users are presented with many service items and granularity options for data coordination agreement, then the comprehensiveness of data utilization increases, but the complexity of user decision-making increases and agreement becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data coordination agreement process into two distinct stages: (1) a comprehensive data selection stage where multiple service items and granularity options are presented to ensure thorough data utilization, and (2) a simplified confirmation stage where only the essential agreement elements are displayed to the user. This segmentation allows the system to maintain comprehensive data coverage while reducing the cognitive burden on users during the actual agreement process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary processing layer (the management device) that acts as a mediator between the complex data coordination options and the user. This intermediary pre-processes the numerous service items and granularity options, organizing them into structured formats and filtering out redundant information before presenting it to the user, thereby reducing decision-making complexity while preserving comprehensiveness.
2Adaptability or versatility
If comprehensive data coordination options are provided to users, then the potential value of data distribution increases, but user trust decreases due to information overload
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and separates the essential agreement elements from the comprehensive data coordination options. Instead of presenting users with all the complex service items and granularity details simultaneously, the system extracts only the critical agreement components (such as the core data sharing purpose and main benefits) and presents them separately in a simplified confirmation interface, thereby maintaining trust while preserving value.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary processing of the data coordination options before user interaction. The management device pre-organizes, filters, and structures the comprehensive service items and granularity options into predetermined categories and formats, preparing the information in advance so that users receive pre-digested, easy-to-understand agreement content rather than raw complex data, thus building trust before the agreement process begins.

AI summary
Provided is a technique to present an additional service related to a service which a user has received so as to reduce an amount of information presented to the user and easily obtain agreement from the user to use user data. An information processing apparatus includes: an acquisition means for acquiring user data pertaining to a service which a user has received from an operator; a determination means for determining whether or not there is a value-added service receivable from a second operator in relation to the service; and a generation means for generating a message in a case where the value-added service has been determined to exist, the message including (i) an agreement request for provision of the user data possessed by the operator to the second operator and (ii) information pertaining to the value-added service which is receivable upon approval of the user to the agreement request.
