Abstract

Methods and systems for providing content for a brand to an authorized party via a distributed computer system are disclosed. A plurality of content is curated for a brand wherein the plurality of content has been aggregated from data resulting from a search of a network that, at least in part, seeks out databases with an online profile for the brand. A request is received for a first content for the brand wherein the request is from an authorized party at a content application programming interface (API). The first content is identified among the plurality of content for the brand. The authorized party is provided with access to the first content via the content API.

Claims

1. A method for providing content for a brand to an authorized party via a distributed computer system, said method comprising:

curating a plurality of content for a brand wherein said plurality of content has been aggregated from data resulting from a search of a network that, at least in part, seeks out databases with an online profile for said brand;

receiving a request for a first content for said brand wherein said request is from an authorized party at a content application programming interface (API);

identifying said first content among said plurality of content for said brand; and

providing said authorized party with access to said first content via said content API.

2. The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising:

determining whether said authorized party has authorization permission to access said first content before said providing occurs.

3. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein said identifying said first content accesses a database of content for a plurality of brands each having an online presence.

4. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein said request comprises a feature, and wherein said identifying said first content searches said plurality of content for a tag associated with said first content wherein said tag identifies said feature.

5. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the providing the authorized party with access to said first content is accomplished via sending a link to said authorized party to download said first content from a third party location.

6. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the providing the authorized party with access to said first content is accomplished via sending said first content to said authorized party.

7. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein said plurality of content has been normalized by mapping data structures to display said normalized content in a consistent format via said content API.

8. A non-transitory computer-usable storage medium having instructions embodied therein that when executed cause a computer system to perform a method for providing content for a brand to an authorized party via a distributed computer system, said method comprising:

curating a plurality of content for a brand wherein said plurality of content has been aggregated from data resulting from a search of a network that, at least in part, seeks out databases with an online profile for said brand;

receiving a request for a first content for said brand wherein said request is from an authorized party at a content application programming interface (API);

identifying said first content among said plurality of content for said brand; and

providing said authorized party with access to said first content via said content API.

9. The non-transitory computer-usable storage medium as recited in claim 8, further comprising:

determining whether said authorized party has authorization permission to access said first content before said providing occurs.

10. The non-transitory computer-usable storage medium as recited in claim 8, wherein said identifying said first content accesses a database of content for a plurality of brands each having an online presence.

11. The non-transitory computer-usable storage medium as recited in claim 8, wherein said request comprises a feature, and wherein said identifying said first content searches said plurality of content for a tag associated with said first content wherein said tag identifies said feature.

12. The non-transitory computer-usable storage medium as recited in claim 8, wherein the providing the authorized party with access to said first content is accomplished via sending a link to said authorized party to download said first content from a third party location.

13. The non-transitory computer-usable storage medium as recited in claim 8, wherein the providing the authorized party with access to said first content is accomplished via sending said first content to said authorized party.

14. The non-transitory computer-usable storage medium as recited in claim 8, wherein said plurality of content has been normalized by mapping data structures to display said normalized content in a consistent format via said content API.

15. A method for automatically tagging an item of content via a distributed computer system, said method comprising:

curating a plurality of content for a brand wherein said plurality of content has been aggregated from data resulting from a search of a network that, at least in part, seeks out databases with an online profile for said brand;

automatically detecting a feature of an item of content of said plurality of content, wherein said item of content is related to said brand, and wherein said item of content is stored in a database;

automatically associating a tag with said item of content, wherein said tag identifies said feature; and

storing an association between said tag and said item of content in said database.

16. The method as recited in claim 15, further comprising:

modifying said tag and association in said database.

17. The method as recited in claim 15, further comprising:

normalizing said tag by mapping data structures to display said normalized content in a consistent format.

18. The method as recited in claim 15, wherein said automatically detecting said feature is a detection of a creation of said item of content.

19. The method as recited in claim 15, wherein said automatically detecting said feature is a detection of a publication of said item of content.

20. The method as recited in claim 15, wherein said database comprises at least one tag that has been received by manual form submission associating said at least one tag with at least one item of content of said plurality of content.
