Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional user experience systems lack flexibility, accuracy, and efficiency in designing product storefront webpages, often requiring separate applications and third-party involvement, leading to rigid designs and inefficient resource usage.

Innovation Solution

A user experience design system that integrates product information, user experience information, and audience information within a single design tool to create personalized and scalable storefront webpages, eliminating the need for third-party interaction by generating and publishing designs directly from the design tool.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional systems use separate applications for design, development, and publishing, then each function can be specialized, but the system complexity increases and user efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedesign efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines design tools, product information databases, audience analytics systems, and publishing capabilities into a single integrated application. This allows users to access all functionality through one interface rather than switching between multiple separate applications, directly resolving the contradiction by improving productivity while managing system complexity through integration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The design tool is made universal by enabling it to perform multiple functions: designing user experiences, accessing product information, analyzing audience data, generating personalized content, and publishing directly. This multi-functional approach eliminates the need for separate specialized applications, improving efficiency without proportionally increasing complexity.

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

2Ease of manufacture

If conventional systems use generic design templates, then the design process is simplified, but the accuracy and personalization of the final product decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedesign simplicityVSAvoiddesign accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system maintains simple generic templates as the base structure but enhances them with locally customized elements generated from actual product information and audience analytics. This allows the overall design process to remain simple while achieving high accuracy in specific areas through data-driven personalization of individual design elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by automatically generating personalized design elements and content based on product data and audience insights before the final design is completed. This preliminary customization occurs seamlessly in the background, maintaining design simplicity while ensuring accuracy and personalization in the final output.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If conventional systems require third-party involvement for publishing, then design control is maintained, but the time and resources required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepublishing speedVSAvoidtime for user interactions
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service publishing by integrating publishing capabilities directly into the design tool. Users can publish their designs directly without requiring third-party developers or marketers, allowing them to maintain full control while dramatically reducing the time and interactions needed. The system performs the publishing function itself based on user input, eliminating external dependencies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

4Adaptability or versatility

If conventional systems use partitioned workflows, then specialization is improved, but cross-functional coordination becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefunctional specializationVSAvoidworkflow coordination
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges previously partitioned workflows into a unified interface where design, product information management, audience analytics, and publishing operations can be accessed and coordinated seamlessly. This integration maintains the functional capabilities of specialized tools while eliminating the coordination difficulties of partitioned workflows, allowing users to switch between functions without leaving the application.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for generating webpage design templates based on product information, audience information, and user experience information. For example, the disclosed systems can utilize an internet-based product catalog engine to determine actual product information such as product descriptions and reviews to include within a webpage design template during the design process. The disclosed systems can further generate personalization rules to modify the appearance of a product webpage to accommodate the preferences of different audiences. In addition, the disclosed systems can generate recommendations to modify various design elements based on product information, audience information, and user experience information. Further, the disclosed systems can publish a webpage design template as a product storefront webpage accessible to end users.
