Abstract

Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for scaled delivery of media content. The systems and methods assign a set of proposed designations to a plurality of media content. The systems and methods select a set of media content from the plurality of media content based on the set of proposed designations and distribute a subset of media content of the set of media content to a selected user of a plurality of users. The subset of media content is presented at a computing device associated with the selected user. The systems and methods receive a set of indicators for each media content of the subset of media content. Each indicator represents an interaction with a media content of the subset of media content. The systems and methods cause presentation of an interaction notification at the computing device associated with the selected user.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method comprising:
assigning, by one or more processors using a machine learning process, a set of proposed designations to a plurality of media content, each media content instance of the plurality of media content being assigned one or more proposed designations describing media content of the respective media content instance;
organizing the plurality of media content into related proposed designations using the one or more proposed designations of each media content instance;
selecting, a set of media content from the plurality of media content based on the related proposed designations, the set of media content being a subset of the plurality of media content;
distributing, the subset of media content of the set of media content to a computing device associated with a selected user of a plurality of users;
receiving a set of indicators for each media content of the subset of media content; each indicator representing an interaction with a media content of the subset of media content; and
causing presentation of an interaction notification at the computing device associated with the selected user, the interaction notification indicating interaction with each media content of the subset of media content.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
receiving a content request from the computing device of the selected user;
authenticating the selected user; and
selecting the subset of media content from the set of media content, proposed designations of the subset of media content corresponding to at least a portion of the content request.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the content request includes a location and a set of content types, and wherein selecting the subset of media content further comprises:
identifying a proposed designation common among one or more media content within the set of media content, the proposed designation corresponding to at least one of the location and the set of content types;
selecting the one or more media content for inclusion in the subset of media content;
generating a structured interaction for the subset of media content; and
distributing the subset of media content to the selected user by transmitting the structured interaction, with the subset of media content, to the computing device associated with the selected user.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein generating the structured interaction further comprises:
generating a plurality of structured media instances, each structured media instance comprising a media content of the subset of media content included within the structured interaction, a set of user interface elements, and an indication of the proposed designation for the media content; and
generating a representative interaction element comprising a selectable user interface element, the proposed designation corresponding to the subset of media content, and one or more aspect indicators for the structured interaction.

5. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
selecting a user from the plurality of users, the user being the selected user; and
selecting the subset of media content from the set of media content, proposed designations of the subset of media content corresponding to the selected user.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the selected user is a first selected user and selecting the user from the plurality of users further comprises:
selecting a set of users from the plurality of users, the set of users including the first selected user;
for each user of the set of users, selecting a subset of media content from the set of media content, the proposed designations of the subset of media content corresponding to the user for which the subset of media content is selected; and
distributing each subset of media content to the user, of the set of users, for which the subset of media content is selected.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the selected user is associated with a location and a set of content types, the proposed designations of subset of media content, distributed to the selected user, being associated with at least one of the location and the set of content types.

8. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
generating a set of structured interactions for one or more proposed designations, each structured interaction corresponding to a proposed designation;
transmitting at least one structured interaction of the set of structured interactions to the computing device associated with the selected user;
receiving at least one structured response indicating interaction with one or more elements of the at least one structured interactions; and
validating the at least one structured response with a validated interaction for the one or more proposed designations.

9. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
a anon-transitory processor-readable storage medium storing processor executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
assigning, by one or more processors using a machine learning process, a set of proposed designations to a plurality of media content, each media content instance of the plurality of media content being assigned one or more proposed designations describing media content of the respective media content instance;
organizing the plurality of media content into related proposed designations using the one or more proposed designations of each media content instance;
selecting a set of media content from the plurality of media content based on the related proposed designations, the set of media content being a subset of the plurality of media content;
distributing the subset of media content of the set of media content to a computing device associated with a selected user of a plurality of users;
receiving a set of indicators for each media content of the subset of media content, each indicator representing an interaction with a media content of the subset of media content; and
causing presentation of an interaction notification at the computing device associated with the selected user, the interaction notification indicating interaction with each media content of the subset of media content.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving a content request from the computing device of the selected user;
authenticating the selected user; and
selecting the subset of media content from the set of media content, proposed designations of the subset of media content corresponding to at least a portion of the content request.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the content request includes a location and a set of content types, and wherein selecting the subset of media content further comprises:
identifying a proposed designation common among one or more media content within the set of media content, the proposed designation corresponding to at least one of the location and the set of content types;
selecting the one or more media content for inclusion in the subset of media content;
generating a structured interaction for the subset of media content; and
distributing the subset of media content to the selected user by transmitting the structured interaction, with the subset of media content, to the computing device associated with the selected user.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein generating the structured interaction further comprises:
generating a plurality of structured media instances, each structured media instance comprising a media content of the subset of media content included within the structured interaction, a set of user interface elements, and an indication of the propose
