Abstract:
Inactive areas of interest to a merchant delivery service may be identified and customers within those areas may be utilized to recruit eligible merchants to participate with a merchant delivery service so that the merchant delivery service can deliver customer ordered products on behalf of participating merchants to the customers within the area. In some implementations, the merchant delivery service may provide incentives to customer to incent the customers to recruit eligible merchants to participate with the merchant delivery service. Likewise, incentives may be provided to merchants to incent merchants to participate in the merchant delivery service. When an eligible merchant becomes a participating merchant, the merchant delivery service provides a reward to the customers that recruited the merchant.
Abstract:
Management of persistent campaigns can be automated across multiple possible communication channels. A campaign management service monitors state information for the targeted users to ensure that the campaign content is provided to those users at appropriate times using appropriate channels. After a state change is detected for a particular user, corresponding to the desired action being taken, the campaign content will no longer provided for that user across any of those channels. The ability to manage state across all channels ensures that the providing of campaign content to any targeted users does not exceed frequency, occurrence, or other such criteria, and the types of actions can be any detectable actions performed with respect to an electronic environment.
Abstract:
A merchant system including an order management application and method of integrating orders received from multiple ordering channels is described. An aggregated order queue is established including multiple orders from multiple different ordering channels. The orders are processed for fulfillment and a delivery channel is selected from multiple delivery channels for delivery of the one or more items of the order. The multiple orders, regardless of the ordering channel originating the order, and delivery channels may be managed via a single user interface.
Abstract:
A food item container that contains a food item may include one or more sensors that collect sensor data indicating a characteristic (e.g., temperature, humidity, pressure, orientation, etc.) associated with the food item. A delivery container that transports the food items within the food item container may also include one or more sensors that collect the sensor data. Based on the sensor data, a component of the food item container and/or the delivery container may maintain or adjust the characteristic. The one or more sensors of the delivery container may also detect an identifier associated with the food item container, which may indicate which food item containers (and corresponding food items) are included within each delivery container.
Abstract:
Disclosed are various embodiments for suggesting item prices using item attributes specific to an item classification. One or more input values are received for a set of attributes corresponding to a selected item classification. A user interface is rendered that includes a suggested price range. The suggested price range is determined from a set of historical transaction prices for multiple items that are classified under the selected item classification and match the input value(s) for the set of attributes.
Abstract:
Personalizing recommendations for users based at least in part on learning user patterns that are specific to individual entities is described. A service provider may determine data associated with interactions between users and an entity and may determine, based on the data, patterns associated with a user of the users and the entity. The patterns may represent affinities between the user and at least one of goods or services offered by the entity. The service provider may determine entity data associated with the entity and, based at least in part on an availability of at least one of the goods or the services, may generate recommendations associated with the patterns and the entity data.
