Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for providing an event alert
First Claim
1. A method for providing an event alert, comprising:
- detecting an incoming communication from a first device;
receiving, from the first device, an identity of a contacted party associated with a second device;
upon receiving the identity of the contacted party associated with the second device, establishing a first session with an alert tag store configured to store multiple tags;
upon establishing the first session with the alert tag store, determining, via the alert tag store, whether the contacted party associated with the second device is further associated with a first alert tag, the first alert tag comprising a first identifying alert identifying a first person of multiple first persons in the contacted party associated with the second device;
identifying an initiating party associated with the first device;
upon identifying the initiating party associated with the first device, establishing a second session with the alert tag store;
upon establishing the second session with the alert tag store, determining, via the alert tag store, whether the initiating party associated with the first device is further associated with a second alert tag, the second alert tag comprising a second identifying alert identifying a second person of multiple second persons in the initiating party associated with the first device;
in response to determining that the contacted party is associated with the first alert tag and determining that the initiating party is associated with the second alert tag, retrieving the first alert tag and the second alert tag from the alert tag store and storing the first alert tag and the second alert tag on the second device; and
upon retrieving the first alert tag and the second alert tag from the alert tag store and storing the first alert tag and the second alert tag on the second device, playing the first identifying alert of the first alert tag and the second identifying alert of the second alert tag as the event alert.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media provide for providing an event alert. According to embodiments, a method for providing an event alert is provided. According to the method, an incoming communication from a first device is detected. An initiating party associated with the first device is identified. Whether the initiating party associated with the first device is further associated with an alert tag is determined. The alert tag may include an identifying alert identifying the initiating party associated with the first device. In response to determining that the initiating party associated with the first device is associated with the alert tag, the identifying alert is provided as the event alert on a second device.
