Route monetization
First Claim
1. A system comprising a processor coupled to a computer-storage medium, the computer-storage medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer software components executable by the processor, the computer software components comprising:
- an analysis component that identifies at least one reward capability of travel between at least two locations;
a production component that augments a direction set based on at least about one identification of the analysis component; and
an artificial intelligence component that makes an inference that a user would accept less of a reward to travel the augmented direction set due to an interest.

Abstract
A user can be compensated for taking detours from a projected route. Commonly, the reason for the compensation is that the user will be subjected to advertising, the user will pass by an establishment she is likely to visit, or to ease traffic congestion. Analysis of an area takes place and monetization opportunities are determined based upon the results of the analysis. A route between at least about two locations can be altered such that the user is provided a reward, commonly in an optimized manner.

-
an analysis component that identifies at least one reward capability of travel between at least two locations; a production component that augments a direction set based on at least about one identification of the analysis component; and an artificial intelligence component that makes an inference that a user would accept less of a reward to travel the augmented direction set due to an interest. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A system comprising a processor coupled to a computer-storage medium, the computer-storage medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer software components executable by the processor, the computer software components comprising:
-
a production component for producing at least two equivalent routes; a selection component for selecting a route for presentment to a user, wherein selection is based at least in part upon reward opportunity of the route; and an artificial intelligence component for inferring that a particular company is not a viable opportunity and, upon making such inference, ceasing consideration of the company to conserve system resources. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13)

14. A computer storage media device storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method, the method comprising:
-
identifying at least one reward capability of travel between at least two locations; augmenting a direction set based on at least about one identification of the analysis component; and making an inference that a user would accept less of a reward to travel the augmented direction set due to an interest.
