Motivation
The client approached Azati with the request to develop an automated solution that would notify researchers about newly added patent sequence data relevant to their previous searches. This solution was aimed at eliminating the manual process of tracking updates, ensuring that researchers receive accurate, timely, and comprehensive information, and reducing the risk of missing critical data in their intellectual property research.
Main Challenges
Due to 24-hour update cycles on the SequenceBase Research Portal, users often missed new patent documents and sequences relevant to their ongoing research. Azati addressed this by introducing a monitoring system that proactively tracks and notifies users of relevant updates.
Researchers had to perform repeated manual searches to find newly added sequences matching their queries, which was time-consuming and inefficient. Azati proposed and implemented a solution with automated recurring search checks and user notifications.
Without intelligent filtering, frequent alerts can overwhelm users. Azati designed a smart notification engine that only sends alerts when genuinely relevant results appear, reducing alert fatigue.
Researchers needed a clear history of sequence updates to verify their work. Azati implemented a history log showing previous search results for transparency and reproducibility.
