Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for providing marketing information often result in indiscriminate information accumulation and marketing fatigue, as they typically require user consent and save messages as permanent history, limiting the ability to reach users who have not consented to receive marketing information.

Innovation Solution

A temporary message processing method that displays marketing information as a volatile, temporary message for users who have not consented, using a dedicated message template that does not accumulate in the user's inbox and can be deleted upon user action, allowing for one-time display without saving as conversation history.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If marketing information is provided as a permanent message to users who have not consented, then the reach of marketing information is limited, but information accumulation and marketing fatigue increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereach of marketing informationVSAvoidinformation accumulation and marketing fatigue
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies the disposable principle by implementing temporary messages that automatically disappear after being viewed or after a set time period. These temporary marketing messages are designed to be short-lived and non-persistent, allowing marketers to reach users without consent while the messages automatically vanish after use, preventing accumulation in user inboxes and eliminating the need for manual deletion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the persistence parameter of marketing messages from permanent to temporary. By modifying the message lifecycle parameter - setting automatic expiration times and disposable characteristics - the system enables broader distribution to non-consenting users while controlling information accumulation through parameter-based message management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Loss of information

If marketing information is saved as conversation history, then message redundancy increases, but user privacy and consent preferences are violated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemessage redundancyVSAvoidprivacy violation and consent disregard
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts temporary marketing messages from the permanent conversation history storage system. By separating temporary messages into a distinct storage category with different retention policies, the system prevents these messages from being saved in the user's permanent inbox, thereby eliminating redundancy while respecting user privacy preferences and consent choices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements disposable temporary messages that are automatically deleted after viewing or time expiration, preventing them from accumulating in conversation history. This disposable approach eliminates message redundancy while inherently respecting user privacy by not persisting information that users have not consented to receive.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)

3Quantity of substance

If a dedicated message template is created for non-consenting users, then marketing information can be displayed, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay capability for non-consenting usersVSAvoidmessage template management
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal temporary message template that serves multiple functions: it displays marketing information to non-consenting users, automatically manages its own lifecycle through expiration logic, and integrates with existing messaging infrastructure. This multi-functional template reduces overall system complexity by handling multiple concerns within a single standardized component.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments message templates into distinct types - permanent conversation messages and temporary marketing messages - each with specific rendering rules and storage behaviors. This segmentation allows the system to handle different message types through specialized, simplified logic rather than complex conditional processing within a single template system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A temporary message processing method includes, in response to an entry request from a user for entry into a chatroom, verifying whether the user has consented to receiving marketing information from a business operator related to the chatroom; and when the user has not consented to receiving marketing information, configuring a marketing message of the business operator in a form of a volatile temporary message and displaying the same in the chatroom.
