Methods and systems of obtaining consumer reviews

This describes a system for encouraging online shoppers to review items. After a customer buys something from an online store, the system estimates how long it will take them to try out that specific type of product. It then sends a review request at an appropriate time, or specifically when the customer places another order for a different item.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread sophisticated machine learning, the core idea of estimating item evaluation time based on item type can now be implemented with far greater accuracy. Modern e-commerce platforms also make integrating and acting on specific user events, like placing a subsequent order, much more seamless.
