Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The present application is a continuation of and claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/947,102, filed on Apr. 6, 2018 and entitled “Processing System having a Machine Learning Engine for Providing a Selectable Item Availability Output,” which is incorporated by reference in its entirety herein.

BACKGROUND

Aspects of the disclosure relate to enhanced processing systems, for providing a selectable item availability output, with improved content and configuration modification capabilities and selectable item availability output determination capabilities. In particular, one or more aspects of the disclosure relate to selectable item availability generation platforms that utilize selectable item availability configuration and content outputs to improve efficiency of selectable item availability content and configuration updates and to facilitate selectable item availability transactions.
Because many organizations and individuals rely on portals as a method for purchasing products, maintaining purchasing efficiency for users and maintaining content and configuration update efficiency for organizations is important. In many instances, however, it may be difficult to quickly update and revise content and configurations of these portals without recoding the portal. In addition, in many instances, it may it may be difficult for users to purchase multiple products without entering the same personal information multiple times.

SUMMARY

Aspects of the disclosure provide effective, efficient, scalable, and convenient technical solutions that address and overcome the technical problems associated with optimizing the performance of switchboard output control computing platforms, content output control computing platforms, and selectable item availability generation computing platforms, along with the information that such systems may maintain, using switchboard output control, content output control, and selectable item availability generation techniques.
In accordance with one or more arrangements discussed herein, a computing platform having at least one processor, a communication interface, and memory may establish, with a user device, a first wireless data connection. The computing platform may receive, from the user device and via the first wireless data connection, a request to access a selectable item availability output. The computing platform may generate one or more commands to cause display of the selectable item availability output. The computing platform may send, to the user device and along with the one or more commands to cause display of the selectable item availability output, selectable item availability output information.

The computing platform may receive, from the user device and via the first wireless data connection, a second request to access the selectable item availability output. The computing platform may generate one or more commands to cause display of the updated selectable item availability output. The computing platform may send, to the user device and along with the one or more commands to cause display of the selectable item availability output, the updated selectable item availability outputs.
In some arrangements, the computing platform may establish, with the switchboard output control computing platform, a second wireless data connection. The computing platform may establish, with the content output control computing platform, a third wireless data connection.
In some examples, the selectable item availability configuration output may be received via the second wireless data connection and the selectable item availability content output may be received via the third wireless data connection.
In some arrangements, the selectable item availability configuration output may comprise an update to at least one of an order of a question on one or more user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output and a group identifier comprising an indication of a selection tool used to provide user input in response to the question.
In some examples, the selectable item availability content output may comprise an update to at least one of: a video displayed by one or more user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output, text displayed on the one or more user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output, a language in which the text is displayed, and a product with which the text or the video is associated.
In some arrangements, the selectable item availability configuration output and the selectable item availability content output may be generated in response to user input received via a user interface displayed on a selectable item availability management computing platform.
In some examples, the computing platform may establish, with a third party source computing platform, a second wireless data connection. The computing platform may generate one or more commands directing the third party source computing platform to provide source data associated with received data. The computing platform may send, to the third party source computing platform, via the second wireless data connection, and along with an indication of the received data, the one or more commands directing the third party source computing platform to provide source data. The computing platform may receive, from the third party source computing platform and via the second wireless data connection, third party source data.
In some arrangements, the computing platform may generate the updated selectable item availability output by generating, based at least in part on the third party source data, the updated selectable item availability output.
These features, along with many others, are discussed in greater detail below.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In the following description of various illustrative embodiments, reference is made to the accompanying drawings, which form a part hereof, and in which is shown, by way of illustration, various embodiments in which aspects of the disclosure may be practiced. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized, and structural and functional modifications may be made, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
It is noted that various connections between elements are discussed in the following description. It is noted that these connections are general and, unless specified otherwise, may be direct or indirect, wired or wireless, and that the specification is not intended to be limiting in this respect.
It may be difficult for organizations to determine how best to determine selectable item availability outputs that prompt customers for personal information that may be used to identify multiple product options simultaneously once the personal information has been entered. A processing system capable of determining multiple products simultaneously may reduce an amount of time a customer may spend trying to purchase products, as it may eliminate instances of data reentry. It may take organizations significant amounts of time to make edits to such a processing system. Organizations may send requested user interface modifications to developers, who may then recode the interfaces based on the requests. A system that allows an organization to modify the configuration and content of the user interfaces on the spot may be advantageous, as it may reduce the amount of time for organizations to go live with user interface modifications.

FIGS. 2A-20 depict an illustrative event sequence for deploying a selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 that utilizes improved selectable item availability output generation techniques in accordance with one or more example embodiments. Referring to FIG. 2A, at step 201, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a selectable item availability configuration update request. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive, via a user interface displayed on a display comprising the selectable item availability management computing platform 105, a user input requesting a configuration update to a selectable item availability output. The selectable item availability output may comprise one or more user interfaces that allow a user to provide personal information.
At step 202, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may establish a connection with the switchboard output control computing platform 102. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may establish a first wireless data connection to the switchboard output control computing platform 102 to link the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to the switchboard output control computing platform 102.
At step 203, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send the selectable item availability configuration update request. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send, while the first wireless data connection is established and via the first wireless data connection, the selectable item availability configuration update request to the switchboard output control computing platform 102.
At step 204, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may receive the selectable item availability configuration update request. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may receive, via the first wireless data connection and from the selectable item availability management computing device, the selectable item availability configuration update request.
Referring to FIG. 2B, at step 205, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may generate one or more commands directing the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to cause display of a switchboard interface output. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may generate the one or more commands in response to receiving the selectable item availability configuration update request at step 204.
At step 206, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may send, via the communication interface 113, via the first wireless data connection, and to the selectable item availability management computing platform 105, the one or more commands directing the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to cause display of the switchboard interface output.
At step 207, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive the one or more commands directing the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to cause display of the switchboard interface output. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive the one or more commands via the first wireless data connection and from the switchboard output control computing platform 102.
At step 208, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may cause display of the switchboard interface output. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may cause display of the switchboard interface output in response to receiving the one or more commands at step 207. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may display and/or otherwise present a graphical user interface similar to graphical user interface 305, which is illustrated in FIG. 3. The switchboard interface output may allow a user to select a particular group of elements and to modify the configuration of those elements. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a user input requesting that a user interface comprising the selectable item availability output prompts a user for his or her gender prior to prompting for a date of birth. In another example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a user input requesting that the user interface prompts a user to select a gender via a drop down menu (as opposed to typing it in, selecting a button, or the like). The selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive this user input via the group identifier field. The selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may also receive user input to vary particular questions by state and/or otherwise to modify their configuration on the selectable item availability output. In some examples, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive input to delete, move, change, or otherwise revise particular elements of various user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output.
The selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may also receive user input to edit one or more of the following: one or more of the levels of coverage (limits, deductibles, options, or the like) for various plans, scenarios for which a stop page is displayed to a user, which products are live in each state, which sections to display to a user based on personal information, which zip codes customers are able to purchase insurance for, dog breeds that may trigger a stop page, which protective devices are displayed to a user, page order or question group order, values displayed in dropdowns, values for state level indicators on a state by state basis, restrictions applied to renter counties, changes to an environment via a product release, and the like. The selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may also receive user input to navigate to different utility tools.
By allowing a user to edit the configuration of the selectable item availability output via the switchboard interface, the user may avoid having to request that the selectable item availability output be recoded to show the revised configuration. This may save a considerable amount of time.
Referring to FIG. 2C, at step 209, as described above with regard to FIG. 3, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a selectable item availability configuration update input. For example, the selectable item availability configuration update input may comprise an indication to move, delete, add, and/or otherwise edit elements and their configuration comprising the selectable item availability output as described above at step 208.
At step 210, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send the selectable item availability configuration update input to the switchboard output control computing platform 102. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send, via the first wireless data connection and to the switchboard output control computing platform 102, the selectable item availability configuration update input.
At step 211, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may receive the selectable item availability configuration update input. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may receive, via the first wireless data connection, the selectable item availability configuration update input sent by the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 at step 210.
At step 212, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may generate a selectable item availability configuration output. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may generate, based on the selectable item availability configuration update input received at step 211, the selectable item availability configuration output. In generating the selectable item availability configuration output, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may generate configuration data that may be used to cause a user interface to show the requested configuration change indicated by the selectable item availability configuration update input. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may generate configuration data indicating that on a marital status should be selected, using the selectable item availability output, via a drop down menu as opposed to typed into a text box.
The switchboard output control computing platform 102 may also generate, based on the selectable item availability configuration update input, selectable item availability configuration outputs that edit one or more of the levels of coverage (limits, deductibles, options, or the like) for various plans, scenarios for which a stop page is displayed to a user, which products are live in each state, which sections to display to a user based on personal information, which zip codes customers are able to purchase insurance for, dog breeds that may trigger a stop page, which protective devices are displayed to a user, page order or question group order, values displayed in dropdowns, values for state level indicators on a state by state basis, restrictions applied to renter counties, changes to an environment via a product release, and the like.
Referring to FIG. 2D, at step 213, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may establish, with the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104, a connection. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may establish a second wireless data connection with the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104.
At step 214, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may send the selectable item availability configuration output, generated at step 212, to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may send, to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104, while the second wireless data connection is established, via the communication interface 113, and via the second wireless data connection, the selectable item availability configuration output. For example, the switchboard output control computing platform 102 may establish the second wireless data connection to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 to link the switchboard output control computing platform 102.
At step 215, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive the selectable item availability configuration output. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive, via the communication interface 119, via the second wireless data connection and from the switchboard output control computing platform 102, the selectable item availability configuration output.
At step 216, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may store the selectable item availability configuration output. In some examples, in response to receiving the selectable item availability configuration output, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output. In other examples, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 wait to update the selectable item availability output until receiving a request for the selectable item availability output. In yet other examples, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine based on the selectable item availability configuration output whether to start updating now or later. For example, if selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 determines that the update is below a predetermined complexity threshold, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may wait to update the selectable item availability output. If the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 determines that the update is above a predetermined complexity threshold, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may initiate the update.
Referring to FIG. 2E, at step 217, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a selectable item availability content update request. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a request to update content comprising the selectable item availability output.
At step 218, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may establish a connection with the content output control computing platform 103. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may establish a third wireless data connection with the content output control computing platform 103. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may establish the third wireless data connection to the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to link the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to the content output control computing platform 103.
At step 219, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send the selectable item availability content update request to the content output control computing platform 103. The selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send, while the third wireless data connection is established, via the third wireless data connection, and to the content output control computing platform 103, the selectable item availability content update request.
At step 220, the content output control computing platform 103 may receive the selectable item availability content update request sent at step 219. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may receive, via the communication interface 116, via the third wireless data connection and from the selectable item availability management computing platform 105, the selectable item availability content update request.
Referring to FIG. 2F, at step 221, the content output control computing platform 103 may generate one or more commands directing the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 to cause display of a content interface output. The content output control computing platform 103 may generate the one or more commands in response to receiving the selectable item availability content update request at step 220.
At step 222, the content output control computing platform 103 may send, to the selectable item availability management computing platform 105, the one or more commands to cause display of the content interface output. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may send, via the communication interface 116, via the third wireless data connection and to the selectable item availability management computing platform 105, the one or more commands.
At step 223, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive the one or more commands to cause display of the content interface output. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive, via the third wireless data connection and from the content output control computing platform 103, the one or more commands.
At step 224, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may cause display of the content interface output. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may cause display of the content interface output in response to receiving the one or more commands at step 223. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may display and/or otherwise present a graphical user interface similar to graphical user interface 405, which is illustrated in FIG. 4. The content interface output may allow a user to edit particular content displayed on the selectable item availability output. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a user input requesting that a user interface comprising the selectable item availability output prompts a user for his or her marital status by displaying “Select your marital status,” instead of “Are you married?” In another example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a user input requesting that the user interface is displayed in Spanish instead of English. In yet another example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive an input to change particular video content that is displayed via the selectable item availability output. In yet another example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive an input to change a product with which video or text is associated. The content interface output may allow a user to vary content based on state, product, device, language, application, and the like. By allowing a user to edit the content of the selectable item availability output via the content interface output, the user may avoid having to request that the selectable item availability output be recoded to show the revised content. This may save a considerable amount of time.
Referring to FIG. 2G, at step 225, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a selectable item availability content update input. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may receive a user input via the content interface output as described above with regard to FIG. 4.
At step 226, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send the selectable item availability content update input to the content output control computing platform 103. For example, the selectable item availability management computing platform 105 may send, via the third wireless data connection and to the content output control computing platform 103, the selectable item availability content update input.
At step 227, the content output control computing platform 103 may receive the selectable item availability content update input. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may receive, via the communication interface 116, via the third wireless data connection and from the selectable item availability management computing platform 105, the selectable item availability content update input sent at step 226.
At step 228, the content output control computing platform 103 may generate a selectable item availability content output. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may generate, based on the selectable item availability content update input received at step 227, the selectable item availability content output. In generating the selectable item availability content output, the content output control computing platform 103 may generate content data that may be used to cause a user interface to show the requested content change indicated by the selectable item availability content update input. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may generate content data indicating that a marital status should be prompted for by the text “Select your marital status,” instead of “Are you married?”
Referring to FIG. 2H, at step 229, the content output control computing platform 103 may establish a connection with the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may establish a fourth wireless data connection with the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 to link the content output control computing platform 103 to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104.
At step 230, the content output control computing platform 103 may send the selectable item availability content output to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104. For example, the content output control computing platform 103 may send, while the fourth wireless data connection is established, via the communication interface 116, via the fourth wireless data connection, and to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104, the selectable item availability content output.
At step 231, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive the selectable item availability content output sent at step 230. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive the selectable item availability content output via the fourth wireless data connection, via the communication interface 119, and from the content output control computing platform 103.
At step 232, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may store the selectable item availability content output received at step 231. In some examples, in response to receiving the selectable item availability content output, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output. In other examples, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 wait to update the selectable item availability output until receiving a request for the selectable item availability output. In yet other examples, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine based on the selectable item availability content output whether to start updating now or later. For example, if selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 determines that the update is below a predetermined complexity threshold, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may wait to update the selectable item availability output. If the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 determines that the update is above a predetermined complexity threshold, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may initiate the update.
With reference to FIG. 2I, referring to step 233, the user device 107 may receive a selectable item availability request. For example the user device may receive a user input indicating that a user would like to access the selectable item availability output (which may be an online tool for purchasing insurance products and the like).
At step 234, the user device 107 may establish a connection with the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104. For example, the user device 107 may establish a fifth wireless data connection with the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 to link the user device 107 to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104.
At step 235, the user device 107 may send the selectable item availability request to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104. For example, the user device 107 may send, while the fifth wireless data connection is established, via the fifth wireless data connection, and to the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104, the selectable item availability request.
At step 236, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive the selectable item availability request. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive, from the user device 107, via the communication interface 119, and via the fifth wireless data connection, the selectable item availability request sent at step 235.
Referring to FIG. 2J, at step 237, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output. For example, if the selectable item availability output was not previously updated as described above at steps 216 and 232, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output based on stored selectable item availability configuration outputs and selectable item availability content outputs. For example, in updating the selectable item availability output, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update user interface content and configurations comprising the selectable item availability output that were requested by the selectable item availability management computing platform 105.
In addition, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update one or more user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output based on user input received via a previous user interface comprising the selectable item availability output. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update, using machine learning algorithms and datasets, one or more user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output. For example, if a user previously provided an address and clicked “Next” on a user interface comprising the selectable item availability output, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output to comprise a subsequent user interface. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive a zip code via a selectable item availability input, and may determine that a user selected “Next” on the previous user interface. In this example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output to cause display of a subsequent user interface comprising the selectable item availability output. For example, the subsequent user interface may comprise prompts for the user's name, address, other information as described below with regard to FIG. 5, or the like. In another example, based on a zip code received via a selectable item availability input, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine a state and a background scenery associated with the zip code. The selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may cause the state to move to the forefront of one or more subsequent user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output, and may cause the fill of the state to comprise the background scenery. For example, a user may enter a zip code associated with a rural town in Illinois, and the selectable item availability generation computing program may cause Illinois to move to the forefront of the subsequent user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output, and may cause the state to be filled with a rural background (farm fields or the like). In determining the background scenery, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine, for example, a pacific north west background, a mountain background, a south west background, a mid-west background, a Texas background, a New England background, a mid-Atlantic background, a south east background, a city background, or the like.
In another example, based on the background scenery determined via a selectable item availability input, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine that subsequent user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output should use the determined background scenery as a background for the user interface (as opposed to just the fill for the state). In this example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output based on the determined background scenery.
In yet another example, based on a vehicle make and model determined via a selectable item availability input, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine that subsequent user interfaces should use the determined vehicle driving through the determined background scenery as a background for the user interfaces. In this example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output based on the determined vehicle and the determined background scenery.
In other examples, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the selectable item availability output based on user input received via a current user interface comprising the selectable item availability output. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive a selectable item availability input indicating a model and body style of a vehicle. The selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update a currently displayed user interface comprising the selectable item availability output to display the determined vehicle (as opposed to just the vehicle frame). In another example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive a selectable item availability input indicated that the vehicle was new when the user purchased it. In this example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update a currently displayed user interface comprising the selectable item availability output to display plus signs floating around the vehicle. In yet another example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive a selectable item availability input indicating that a home has a garage. In this example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update a currently displayed user interface comprising the selectable item availability output to include a garage in addition to the home. The selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may continue to update the currently displayed user interface comprising the selectable item availability output based on selectable item availability inputs indicating how many cars the garage holds, whether the garage is attached, whether the garage has living space above, or the like. Similarly, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may continue to update user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output based on user inputs indicating whether the home has a pool, a deck, a porch, or the like. In yet another example, the selectable item availability input may indicate basement information as described below with regard to FIG. 5. Based on the basement information, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update the user interfaces comprising the selectable item availability output to include a basement.
In another example, the selectable item availability input may indicate that the user is unemployed. In this example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may update a figure currently displayed on a user interface comprising the selectable item availability output to have a confused expression.
At step 238, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may establish a connection with the third party source computing platform 106. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate a sixth wireless data connection with the third party source computing platform 106 to link the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 to the third party source computing platform 106.
At step 239, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate a source data request. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate the source data request based on user input previously received via a user interface of the selectable item availability output. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 previously received a vehicle type owned by a user; the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate a request for manufacturer source data associated with the vehicle type. In another example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may previously have received an address, and may generate a request for housing source data associated with the address to determine additional information about the house.
At step 240, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may send the source data request. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may send, via the sixth wireless data connection, via the communication interface 119, and to the third party source computing platform 106, the source data request.
Referring to FIG. 2K, at step 241, the third party source computing platform 106 may receive the source data request sent at step 241. For example, the third party source computing platform 106 may receive, via the sixth wireless data connection, the source data request.

For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may receive, from the user device 107, via the communication interface 119, and via the fifth wireless data connection, the selectable item availability input.
At step 252, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine whether more selectable item availability inputs will be received. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine whether a final user interface of the selectable item availability output has been sent to the user device 107. If more selectable item availability inputs will be received, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may return to step 237 to update the selectable item availability output based on the selectable item availability input. If more selectable item availability inputs will not be received, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may proceed to step 253.
Referring to FIG. 2N, at step 253, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate a selectable item availability result output. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may determine one or more insurance products to offer based on the selectable item availability inputs. In some examples, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate the selectable item availability result output via machine learning algorithms and datasets. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may store historical selectable item availability inputs associated with historical selectable item availability result outputs. For example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate one or more machine learning datasets for various selectable item availability result outputs, and may store the selectable item availability inputs in those machine learning datasets. Then, when a new set of selectable item availability inputs are received (for example, a new user accesses the selectable item availability and provides personal information), those selectable item availability inputs may be compared to the various machine learning datasets. If the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 determines that the selectable item availability inputs match one or more of the machine learning datasets to a degree that exceeds a predetermined threshold, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may use a selectable item availability result output associated with those one or more machine learning datasets as the selectable item availability output (for example, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may send this selectable item availability output to the user device 107 for display).
At step 254, the selectable item availability generation computing platform 104 may generate one or more commands directing the user device 107 to cause display of the selectable item availability result output.
