[0043] The following discussion is directed to various embodiments of the invention. Although one or more of these embodiments may be preferred, the embodiments disclosed should not be interpreted, or otherwise used, as limiting the scope of the disclosure, including the claims. In addition, one skilled in the art will understand that the following description has broad application, and the discussion of any embodiment is meant only to be exemplary of that embodiment, and not intended to intimate that the scope of the disclosure, including the claims, is limited to that embodiment.

[0044] An entity, as used herein, may refer to an organization, a group of individuals, an individual, and/or the like. The organization, for example, may include a Logistics Services Provider (LSP), a Carrier Service Provider, a Product Supplier or Service Provider, a Financial Institution, an Insurance Company, and/or the like. A participant, as used herein, may refer to an entity that engages in a transaction with one or more other entities. A transaction, as used herein, may refer to any exchange between two or more entities involving a product, a service, an intangible commodity, and/or the like. In some implementations, the transaction may be a commercial transaction (e.g., an e-commerce transaction). Additionally, or alternatively, the transaction may be a B2B transaction, a B2C transaction, a B2G transaction, a C2C transaction, a G2G transaction, and/or the like.

[0045] The embodiments disclosed herein include systems and methods for a dynamic product offering. Products may include goods, services (e.g., trade facilitation services), intangible commodities, and/or the like. The trade facilitation services may include services relating to logistics, insurance, and finance offerings, and/or the like.

[0046] In some embodiments, the systems and methods disclosed herein comprise computer- implemented Dynamic Product Offerings (DPOs) as new market making instruments which provide an automated matching-mechanism to match product offerings offered by product suppliers and service providers with the required products the customers are looking for. This matching mechanism is designed to meet the needs of the participants based on the characteristics of the markets that the participants are participating in and the characteristics of their transactions duly optimizing the target return and expected risk from the transaction.

[0047] For example, certain entities can leverage the high-quality dynamic information and the entity performance indicators and risk profiles of the customers to design competitively priced Dynamic Product Offerings (DPOs) with suitable terms and conditions. The Product Suppliers and Service Providers can also incorporate economic and commercial promotion incentives within these new instruments (DPOs). As an example, countries, regional and global economic development organizations such as import/export banks can provide additional economic incentives in the form of guarantees to spur targeted economic growth. These measures can include the promotion of trade financing within special market segments, under developed geographical regions, groups of nations, economic zones, or tariff-free zones.

[0048] Fig. 1 is flowchart of a system 100 and illustrates a method 500 according to the principles of the present disclosure. In some implementations, method 500 may include a digital platform or one of its components, that generates a new Dynamic Product Offering (DPO), where a participant (e.g., an entity, such as a product provider) can utilize the steps from 1.0 to 12.0 to identify market needs, devise and/or refine the new Dynamic Product Offering (DPO), manage DPO performance, and/or the like. The digital platform, or one of its components, may perform one or more steps described below.

[0049] The method 500 includes a plurality of steps organized into three categories or“swim lanes.” Steps 1.0 to 12.0 are organized under three swim-lanes 502, 504, 506 depicting the life cycle of a DPO.

[0050] Using steps 1.0 to 4.0 within first swim-lane 502, an entity selling a product can analyze participants’ performance and risk profiles, analyze market characteristics, study and identify market gaps in product offerings by leveraging Big Data and BI (Business Intelligence) Analytics.

[0051] Step 508 includes analyzing participants’ performance and risk profiles. This step may be performed automatically or using BI Analytics tools and dashboards via artificial intelligence and based on objective performance indicators associated with the participant.

[0052] Step 510 includes analyzing market characteristics. This step may also be performed automatically or using BI Analytics tools and dashboards via artificial intelligence and objective performance indicators.

[0053] Step 512 includes studying market gaps and economic incentives for product offerings. This step may also be performed automatically or using BI Analytics tools and dashboards via artificial intelligence and objective performance indicators.

[0054] Step 514 includes leveraging big data and BI analytics to conduct market research and gain insights into product and service offerings gaps. This step may also be performed automatically or using BI Analytics tools and dashboards via artificial intelligence and objective performance indicators.

[0055] The second swim lane 504, includes steps 5.0 to 8.0 of Fig. 1, is directed to devising new Dynamic Product Offerings (DPOs). Step 516 includes analyzing and identifying the patterns of performance indicators and risk profiles of participants using an objective score, such as an AxioScore™, and characteristics of their transactions and markets they operate. This analysis can be performed automatically based on objective criteria.

[0056] Step 518 includes analyzing and identifying the pre-qualification criteria of DPO 116 for targeted markets and participants. This step may be performed automatically.

[0057] Step 520 includes optimizing the financial return and risk of the new product and service offering through DPO 116 for each entity and functional domain. This step may be performed automatically.

[0058] Step 522 includes utilizing the online trading platform to release the DPO 116 as new market instruments within the targeted markets to the targeted customers.

[0059] The third swim lane 506 includes Steps 9.0 to 12.0 of Fig 1, and includes the category Manage Dynamic Product Offerings. Step 524 includes automating matching of the products and services with the customer and market needs. Step 526 includes helping assess the performance of the DPO 116 in the marketplace. Step 528 includes refining the pre qualification criteria for maximizing the market acceptance of the DPOs. In some embodiments, the digital platform (or one of its components) may automatically perform one or more actions to refine DPO 116. For example, the digital platform may automatically adjust a discount to DPO 116 (e.g., based on detecting that DPO 116 is not performing well on the market), implement a new advertising campaign, and/or any other refinement capable of improving the commercial viability of DPO 116.

[0060] Step 530 includes optimizing risk and return, and continually monitoring market conditions to fine tune the DPO criteria. These steps may be performed automatically.

[0061] By determining the target reward and the expected risk for the new product offering based on the identified criteria, the digital platform or one of its designated components, reduces or eliminates human subjectivity by providing participants with an objective value to consider when determining whether to engage in particular transactions. Additionally, the digital platform conserves resources (e.g., computing resources, network resources, memory resources, and/or the like) that would otherwise be wasted by user devices to display sub- optimal product offerings provided by an inferior system (e.g., where the product offerings are based on subjective data) producing lower conversion ratios.

[0062] Fig. 2 is a diagram illustrating the system 100 used with the method 500 of providing dynamic product offerings according to the principles of the present disclosure. Fig. 2 provides illustrative examples of various types of Dynamic Product Offerings in the area of online e- Commerce, e-Finance, e-Insurance, e-Logistics, and/or the like. [0063] Fig. 2 provides an illustrative data flow diagram indicating an overall performance score 110 (e.g., AxioScore™, an aggregated objective score, and/or the like), as well as the relevant Attribute level AxioScores, of the participants and characteristics 112 of the market and transactions as inputs in the design of Dynamic Product Offerings (DPO) 116. DPO 116 can, for example, be in multiple forms, as shown at the bottom of Fig. 2.

[0064] AxioScore™ is a weighted average aggregate of underlying attribute level AxioScores whose weights are determined by prioritization based on the relevant industry standards. While an aggregated AxioScore™ represents a multi-dimensional objective measure of entity performance and risk profile of the entities, each of the individual attribute level AxioScores represents a critical aspect of entity performance and risk area. It utilizes Artificial Intelligence and Big Data Analytics to process the minimally required transactional (e.g., Universal Data Elements (UDEs)) to efficiently process transactions that have been dynamically validated by multiple parties creating Ultimate Data Quality (UDQ).

[0065] The system 100 can be embodied in a digital platform or one of its components to devise, refine, and/or offer new market instruments (DPOs) for various products. The DPOs can also be offered in an online Carriers Private Marketplace through an integrated e-Logistics and e-Commerce platform. Financial Institutions and Insurance Companies can also devise DPOs for trade financing, cargo insurance, business owners’ insurance, and trade credit insurance using an integrated digital platform encompassing e-Finance, e-Insurance, e- Commerce, and e-Logistics suite of apps.

[0066] The digital platform or one of its components can be used to provide DPO 116 in the form of Product Offers 118, Service Offers 120, Carriers Offers 122, Finance Offers 124, and Insurance Offers 126. It will be appreciated that other types of offers may also be provided. The DPO 116 can include pre-defined entity performance and risk profiles (such as the AxioScore™ 110), and characteristics 112 that are associated with the market and/or market transactions. The entity performance and risk profiles can include relevant range of values for the AxioScores 110 which encompass AxioScore Attributes, and AxioScore Factors in the computation of the AxioScores 110.

[0067] The characteristics 112 can include Point of Loading (POL), Point of Discharge (POD), Product, or Commodity Type, and/or the like. The product 118 and service 120 offerings can pre-qualify and offer the potential customers with the price discounts, attractive interest rates on the trade financing loans, best premiums for the cargo, trade credit or business insurance policies, price discounts for the carrier services or for the logistics services from the Logistics Service Providers etc.

[0068] As described in further detail below, details of reference implementation of the system 100 and DPO are provided as embodied as part of various marketplaces including but not limited to the areas of online e-Commerce, e-Logistics, e-Insurance, and e-Finance.

[0069] The examples, provided hereunder, include user and system interaction flow diagrams, tabulation of detailed steps of interaction between the computer system and interacting users. Each step is performed by a user or system role identified in the table, depending on the transaction and entity process area of operation. The reference implementation provides an illustrative example of entity usage of DPO innovation in each entity process area contained in the detailed user system interaction flow diagram, tabulation of interaction steps, and illustration of how each step has been implemented in the system by reference to the Figures that depict an example implementation of each step. The entity process area examples, in each of the below sub-sections cover e-Commerce, e-Logistics, e-Insurance, and e-Finance in that order.

For example, the website may be hosted by another device, such as an e-commerce platform or another server device and digital platform 3320 may provide the other device with an overall performance score, with a recommendation associated with the overall performance score, and/or the like.

[0188] In some implementations, as shown, digital platform 3320 may be hosted in cloud computing environment 3330. Notably, while implementations described herein describe digital platform 3320 as being hosted in cloud computing environment 3330, in some implementations, digital platform 3320 might not be cloud-based (i.e., may be implemented outside of a cloud computing environment) or might be partially cloud-based.

[0189] Cloud computing environment 3330 includes an environment that hosts digital platform 3320. Cloud computing environment 3330 may provide computation, software, data access, storage, and/or other services that do not require end-user knowledge of a physical location and configuration of system(s) and/or device(s) that host digital platform 3320. As shown, cloud computing environment 3330 may include a group of computing resource 3325 (referred to collectively as“computing resources 3325 and individually as“computing resource 3325”).

[0190] Computing resource 3325 includes one or more personal computers, workstation computers, server devices, or another type of computation and/or communication device. In some implementations, computing resource 3325 may host digital platform 3320. The cloud resources may include compute instances executing in computing resource 3325, storage devices provided in computing resource 3325, data transfer devices provided by computing resource 3325, etc. In some implementations, computing resource 3325 may communicate with other computing resources 3325 via wired connections, wireless connections, or a combination of wired and wireless connections.

[0191] As further shown in Fig. 33, computing resource 3325 may include a group of cloud resources, such as one or more applications (“APPs”) 3325-1, one or more virtual machines (“VMs”) 3325-2, virtualized storage (“VSs”) 3325-3, one or more hypervisors (“HYPs”) 3325- 4, or the like.

[0192] Application 3325-1 includes one or more software applications that may be provided to or accessed by user device 3310. Application 3325-1 may eliminate a need to install and execute the software applications on user device 3310. For example, application 3325-1 may include software associated with digital platform 3320 and/or any other software capable of being provided via cloud computing environment 3330. In some implementations, one application 3325-1 may send/receive information to/from one or more other applications 3325- 1, via virtual machine 3325-2. In some implementations, application 3325-1 may include applications 102. In some implementations, application 3325-1 may include an application capable of interacting with applications 102.

[0193] Virtual machine 3325-2 includes a software implementation of a machine (e.g., a computer) that executes programs like a physical machine. Virtual machine 3325-2 may be either a system virtual machine or a process virtual machine, depending upon use and degree of correspondence to any real machine by virtual machine 3325-2. A system virtual machine may provide a complete system platform that supports execution of a complete operating system (“OS”). A process virtual machine may execute a single program, and may support a single process. In some implementations, virtual machine 3325-2 may execute on behalf of a user (e.g., user device 3310), and may manage infrastructure of cloud computing environment 3330, such as data management, synchronization, or long-duration data transfers.

[0194] Virtualized storage 3325-3 includes one or more storage systems and/or one or more devices that use virtualization techniques within the storage systems or devices of computing resource 3325. In some implementations, within the context of a storage system, types of virtualizations may include block virtualization and file virtualization. Block virtualization may refer to abstraction (or separation) of logical storage from physical storage so that the storage system may be accessed without regard to physical storage or heterogeneous structure. The separation may permit administrators of the storage system flexibility in how the administrators manage storage for end users. File virtualization may eliminate dependencies between data accessed at a file level and a location where files are physically stored. This may enable optimization of storage use, server consolidation, and/or performance of non-disruptive file migrations.

[0195] Hypervisor 3325-4 provides hardware virtualization techniques that allow multiple operating systems (e.g., "guest operating systems") to execute concurrently on ahost computer, such as computing resource 3325. Hypervisor 3325-4 may present a virtual operating platform to the guest operating systems, and may manage the execution of the guest operating systems. Multiple instances of a variety of operating systems may share virtualized hardware resources.

[0196] Network 3340 includes one or more wired and/or wireless networks. For example, network 3340 may include a cellular network (e.g., a fifth generation (5G) network, a fourth generation (4G) network, such as a long-term evolution (LTE) network, a third generation (3G) network, a code division multiple access (CDMA) network, another type of advanced generated network, etc.), a public land mobile network (PLMN), a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), a metropolitan area network (MAN), a telephone network (e.g., the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)), a private network, an ad hoc network, an intranet, the Internet, a fiber optic-based network, a cloud computing network, or the like, and/or a combination of these or other types of networks.

[0197] The number and arrangement of devices and networks shown in Fig. 33 are provided as an example. In practice, there may be additional devices and/or networks, fewer devices and/or networks, different devices and/or networks, or differently arranged devices and/or networks than those shown in Fig. 33. Furthermore, two or more devices shown in Fig. 33 may be implemented within a single device, or a single device shown in Fig. 33 may be implemented as multiple, distributed devices. Additionally, or alternatively, a set of devices (e.g., one or more devices) of environment 3300 may perform one or more functions described as being performed by another set of devices of environment 3300.

Communication interface 3470 may permit device 3400 to receive information from another device and/or provide information to another device. For example, communication interface 3470 may include an Ethernet interface, an optical interface, a coaxial interface, an infrared interface, a radio frequency (RF) interface, a universal serial bus (USB) interface, a Wi-Fi interface, a cellular network interface, or the like.

[0203] Device 3400 may perform one or more processes described herein. Device 3400 may perform these processes based on processor 3420 executing software instructions stored by a non-transitory computer-readable medium, such as memory 3430 and/or storage component 3440. A computer-readable medium is defined herein as a non-transitory memory device. A memory device includes memory space within a single physical storage device or memory space spread across multiple physical storage devices.

[0204] Software instructions may be read into memory 3430 and/or storage component 3440 from another computer-readable medium or from another device via communication interface 3470. When executed, software instructions stored in memory 3430 and/or storage component 3440 may cause processor 3420 to perform one or more processes described herein. Additionally, or alternatively, hardwired circuitry may be used in place of or in combination with software instructions to perform one or more processes described herein. Thus, implementations described herein are not limited to any specific combination of hardware circuitry and software.

[0206] The above discussion is meant to be illustrative of the principles and various embodiments of the present disclosure. Numerous variations and modifications will become apparent to those skilled in the art once the above disclosure is fully appreciated. It is intended that the following claims be interpreted to embrace all such variations and modifications.

[0207] The word“example” is used herein to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any aspect or design described herein as“example” is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other aspects or designs. Rather, use of the word “example” is intended to present concepts in a concrete fashion. As used in this application, the term“or” is intended to mean an inclusive“or” rather than an exclusive“or”. That is, unless specified otherwise, or clear from context,“X includes A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive permutations. That is, if X includes A; X includes B; or X includes both A and B, then“X includes A or B” is satisfied under any of the foregoing instances. In addition, the articles“a” and“an” as used in this application and the appended claims should generally be construed to mean“one or more” unless specified otherwise or clear from context to be directed to a singular form. Moreover, use of the term“an implementation” or“one implementation” throughout is not intended to mean the same embodiment or implementation unless described as such. Further, the phrase“based on” is intended to mean“based, at least in part, on” unless explicitly stated otherwise. [0208] Some implementations are described herein in connection with thresholds. As used herein, satisfying a threshold may refer to a value being greater than the threshold, more than the threshold, higher than the threshold, greater than or equal to the threshold, less than the threshold, fewer than the threshold, lower than the threshold, less than or equal to the threshold, equal to the threshold, or the like.

[0209] Certain user interfaces have been described herein and/or shown in the figures. A user interface may include a graphical user interface, a non-graphical user interface, a text- based user interface, or the like. A user interface may provide information for display. In some implementations, a user may interact with the information, such as by providing input via an input component of a device that provides the user interface for display. In some implementations, a user interface may be configurable by a device and/or a user (e.g., a user may change the size of the user interface, information provided via the user interface, a position of information provided via the user interface, etc.). Additionally, or alternatively, a user interface may be pre-configured to a standard configuration, a specific configuration based on a type of device on which the user interface is displayed, and/or a set of configurations based on capabilities and/or specifications associated with a device on which the user interface is displayed.

[0210] Implementations the systems, algorithms, methods, instructions, etc., described herein can be realized in hardware, software, or any combination thereof. The hardware can include, for example, computers, intellectual property (IP) cores, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), programmable logic arrays, optical processors, programmable logic controllers, microcode, microcontrollers, servers, microprocessors, digital signal processors, or any other suitable circuit. In the claims, the term“processor” should be understood as encompassing any of the foregoing hardware, either singly or in combination. The terms“signal” and“data” are used interchangeably.

[0211] As used herein, the term module can include a packaged functional hardware unit designed for use with other components, a set of instructions executable by a controller (e.g., a processor executing software or firmware), processing circuitry configured to perform a particular function, and a self-contained hardware or software component that interfaces with a larger system. For example, a module can include an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), a circuit, digital logic circuit, an analog circuit, a combination of discrete circuits, gates, and other types of hardware or combination thereof.

In addition, or alternatively, for example, a special purpose computer/processor can be utilized which can contain other hardware for carrying out any of the methods, algorithms, or instructions described herein.

[0213] Further, all or a portion of implementations of the present disclosure can take the form of a computer program product accessible from, for example, a computer-usable or computer- readable medium. A computer-usable or computer-readable medium can be any device that can, for example, tangibly contain, store, communicate, or transport the program for use by or in connection with any processor. The medium can be, for example, an electronic, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic, or a semiconductor device. Other suitable mediums are also available.

[0214] The above-described embodiments, implementations, and aspects have been described in order to allow easy understanding of the present invention and do not limit the present invention. On the contrary, the invention is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the scope of the appended claims, which scope is to be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and equivalent structure as is permitted under the law.
