Automatic recipient targeting for notifications

Abstract:

A method may include one or more computing devices receiving an indication that a triggering action has been detected from a client device, identifying one or more notifications associated with the triggering action, wherein the one or more notifications have been stored in a queue prior to receiving the indication that the triggering action has been detected, and, for each of the one or more identified notifications, calculating a click-through probability that a user associated with the client device will interact with the notification, wherein the click-through probability is calculated based at least in part on a period the notification was stored in the queue prior to receiving the indication that the of the triggering action has been detected, and determining whether the calculated click-through probability satisfies a threshold and sending, in response to determining that the calculated click-through probability satisfies the threshold, the identified notification to the client device.
