RCS Message Template GUI with Concurrent Preview
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Businesses face difficulties in creating Rich Communication Services (RCS) message templates suitable for business communications due to the need for complex JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) programming and reliance on external entities for template generation, hindering widespread adoption of RCS messaging.
Innovation Solution
A graphical user interface (GUI) system that allows users to easily generate RCS message templates by inputting content and viewing a concurrent representative display, enabling the creation of static and parameterized message content without manual coding, and allowing businesses to generate and send customized RCS messages independently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If businesses use existing technologies to generate RCS templates, then they can send RCS messages, but they must write complicated JSON programming or rely on external entities to generate templates
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables businesses to self-service template generation through a graphical user interface that allows direct creation of RCS message templates without requiring JSON programming knowledge or external service provider intervention. The GUI provides intuitive form fields and visual builders that automatically generate the underlying JSON structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical/technical barrier of JSON programming with a graphical user interface system. Instead of requiring businesses to manually write or configure complex JSON code, the system provides visual form fields, drag-and-drop elements, and automated generation mechanisms that substitute the manual coding process.
2Ease of operation
If businesses rely on external entities to generate RCS templates, then they can avoid programming complexity, but they lose independence and control over template generation
Solution Approach 1:
The system eliminates dependency on external entities by providing businesses with direct access to template generation capabilities through the graphical user interface. Businesses can independently create, edit, and manage their own RCS templates without requiring third-party service providers to generate templates for them.
3Productivity
If businesses use SMS messaging to approximate RCS functionality, then they can send messages with links, but users are less likely to access content due to the extra step of clicking the link
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the fundamental parameters of message delivery by enabling direct RCS message transmission with embedded interactive features, buttons, and media content that can be viewed and interacted with directly within the messaging interface, eliminating the need for external link clicks and improving user engagement.

AI summary
System and method for generating RCS message templates using a graphical user interface (GUI) with concurrent representative display. Templates are generated based on inputs via an input region of the GUI. Inputs can include a template name, a template type, and message content, which can include text, images, video, interactive buttons or icons, and so forth. Inputs can be static or parameterized. A representative message based on the template is concurrently displayed in a display region of the GUI. Based on the inputs, the system generates RCS message templates, such as by compiling JSON code corresponding to the user inputs and the representative display. The templates can be used to generate and send finalized RCS messages, such as text messages, rich cards, and so forth, by invoking a generated template and providing data for any parameterized fields in the template.
