Application: Group data objects and associated functionality enablement (Patent ID: US20240185212A1)

Block Inc. has filed a patent for techniques that involve generating group data objects and monitoring inputs to determine if attribute thresholds are met, enabling functionality for users associated with the group data objects. Real-time updates to user interfaces are provided to reflect changes in the group data objects. The method includes accessing context data for user accounts, generating group data objects based on this data, associating sub-accounts with the group data objects, monitoring funds in real-time, and enabling specific functionalities for the group of users when certain thresholds are met. Additionally, the system involves determining characteristics of user accounts, generating actionable recommendations for new user accounts to join the group, and enabling sub-accounts for these new users.

The system further includes operations such as associating group data objects with specific purposes, enabling functionalities based on these purposes, and automating the deconstruction of group data objects once the purpose is fulfilled. Additionally, the system determines incentives based on group data object attributes, associates different instances of incentives with individual user accounts and the group as a whole, and enables the utilization of these incentives for transactions. The patent also covers the use of machine learning models to associate group data objects with user accounts, receiving feedback data to update the model, and generating group data objects based on user interactions with previous transactions or likelihood of association with future events.
