Various embodiments include a conversation engine for facilitating a conversation between member accounts (e.g., personal accounts) and social network entities (e.g., corporate accounts) in a social networking system. The conversation engine can enable interactions between a member account and a social network entity via a messaging application when an end-user device associated with the member account is in proximity to a physical establishment associated with the social network entity. The end-user device can scan for available access points and determine its location based on the wireless source identifier(s) of the available access points. The end-user device and/or the social networking system can compare the wireless source identifier(s) to a set of known wireless source identifiers to determine the end-user device's location. Messages can be generated by the conversation engine that include content that is generated based at least in part on the location of the end-user device.

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and devices for providing personal assistant service via messaging. In particular, one or more embodiments receive a request for personal assistant service in an electronic message from a user, assign the request to an agent, determine an intent of the request, and configure an agent user interface to include one or more options in accordance with the determined intent of the request.

Providing personal assistant service via messaging

A system determines a set of users satisfying a given criteria based on attribute values of the users. The system associates each value of an attribute with a representation of users having that attribute value. The representation of users may be an enumeration of users or a bit index. The system receives a request for determining a set of users satisfying a given criterion. The system identifies a logical operation based on the criterion and performs the logical operation to determine the set of users. The representation of the set of users may be distributed across a plurality of processors, allowing the system to perform the logical operation in parallel. The system may further determine statistical information describing a characteristic of the set of users, for example, page likes by the set of users. The statistical information may be presented to a business for analyzing their target audience.
