The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method for connecting peripheral units to user devices. The method comprises detecting a communication via a first user device connectable to a peripheral unit; detecting a connection intent of the peripheral unit to connect to a second user device; and sending, to the second user device, a command to suppress a connection with the peripheral unit.

Method and system for connecting headset to device with active session

Systems and methods are provided for generating a resource preview in a communication session. The systems and methods may include receiving a link associated with a resource from a sender to a recipient. The systems and method may further include displaying a resource preview as a function of the received link and a stored preview-setting profile. The preview-setting profile may include a recipient-based preview setting, an environment-based preview setting, or a sender-based preview setting.

Systems and methods for generating a resource preview in a communication session

Systems and methods for establishing call connection in response to user action, the method including receiving a first user action from a user associated with making a call connection, wherein the first user action comprises any of copying at least part of a phone number, pasting at least part of the phone number, or inputting at least part of the phone number. The method also includes determining one or more call recipients based on the first user action. The method also includes establishing one or more silent call connections based on the determined one or more call recipients, wherein each of the one or more silent call connections comprises a call connection with a predetermined parameter so that there are no incoming call indicators on one or more devices associated with the one or more call recipients.

Systems and methods for establishing a call connection

A method includes receiving an input data from a host to schedule a meeting. The input data may include invitees to the meeting and a time/date associated with the meeting. A first and a second set of invitees from the invitees are determined. The first set of invitees is identified to start a pre-meeting meeting prior to the meeting scheduled at the time/date. The second set of invitees is identified to start the meeting at the time/date. It is appreciated that the pre-meeting meeting and the meeting are merged into a single meeting at a predetermined threshold of time.

System and method for joining a meeting and setup thereof

A method includes detecting a modification to one chat message that forms a modified one chat message. Subsequent chat messages that are posted after the one chat message has been posted are processed. The method includes automatically identifying a chat message from the subsequent chat messages that has a dependency on the one chat message. The method also includes automatically determining whether a content of the chat message from the subsequent chat messages is impacted by the modified one chat message.

System and method for deep message editing in a chat communication environment

A computer-implemented method and system for improving digital content recommendations of a presentation is provided. The method comprises determining one or more knowledge areas covered by the presentation stored in a database; determining an audience proficiency level in the one or more knowledge areas based on audience data stored in the database; estimating a knowledge gap from the audience proficiency level and the presentation; and automatically generating a recommendation based, at least in part, on the knowledge gap.

Automating content recommendation based on anticipated audience

A system for providing a notification for a plurality of messages is disclosed. The system may include a memory and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to receive the plurality of messages from one or more devices associated with one or more users; identify one or more subjects associated with the plurality of messages; and provide the notification including the plurality of messages to a device associated with a recipient, wherein the plurality of messages are arranged in the notification based on the identified one or more subjects, and wherein the one or more users and the recipient exchange the plurality of messages in a collaborative environment.

Method and system for providing notification

Systems and methods consistent with the disclosure receive as an input content selected from a previous communications session with a first user, receive an input selecting a second user different from the first user, identify an object in the selected content to determine information descriptive for the selected content, initiate a new communications session with the second user, and transmit a message to the second user, including the descriptive information for the selected content.

Systems and devices and methods for initiating communications based on selected content

A method includes receiving a signal associated with an electronic meeting invitation for users to attend the electronic meeting. The users include members of an organization and at least one nonmember of the organization. Responsive to receiving the signal, an online collaborative team is automatically created within an online chat environment. The team members of the online collaborative team include the members and the at least one nonmember. In some embodiments, an online collaborative team account is automatically created for the at least one nonmember responsive to determining that the at least one nonmember has no online collaborative team account.

Collaborative communications environment and automatic account creation thereof

A method is provided for determining when to send an electronic message. The method may include receiving the electronic message for a recipient, and making a prediction associated with the electronic message being positively received by the recipient based on an attribute of the electronic message and an additional attribute of the recipient. The method may also include selectively sending or deferring sending of the electronic message based on the prediction.

Messaging system having send-recommendation functionality

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for generating headshots from a plurality of still images. In one implementation, the system may include a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions. The instructions may include instructions to receive a plurality of still images from one or more video feeds, score the plurality of images along a plurality of dimensions based on a scale, rank the plurality of images using at least one of a composite score or at least one of the dimensions, select a subset of the plurality of images using the ranking, and construct at least one headshot of the user from the subset of the plurality of images.
