1. An apparatus, comprising:

  • a processor circuit; and

    a memory storing instructions which when executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to;

    authenticate, by an application executing on the processor circuit, credentials associated with an account;

    detect, by the application, a tap of a contactless card associated with the account to the apparatus;

    receive, by the application from a communications interface of the contactless card, action data used at least in part to determine an action associated with the tap of the contactless card to the apparatus;

    receive a machine learning (ML) model, the ML model generated based on training data describing a plurality of actions performed responsive to a plurality of taps of a plurality of contactless cards to a plurality of devices, the contactless card associated with the account one of the plurality of contactless cards;

    determine, by the application, a context of the application based at least in part on a current output of the application;

    generate a predicted action by the application based on the action data, the determined context, and the ML model, the predicted action associated with at least one of the application and an operating system (OS) executing on the processor circuit;

    determine, the predicted action as the action associated with the tap of the contactless card to the apparatus; and

    initiate, by the application, performance of the predicted action based on the tap of the contactless card to the apparatus.
