Abstract
An entity computing device associated with a service provider can temporarily provision access to a functionality associated with the service provider to user computing devices operated by users associated with the entity. In an example, the entity computing device can receive, via an application, information from instances of the application executing on the user computing devices. Based on the information, the entity computing device can provision to a user computing device access to a functionality associated with the application. The access can enable the user computing device to independently implement the functionality via an instance of the application. Data corresponding to the usage of the functionality can be received by the entity computing device from the user computing device and can be sent by the entity computing device to the service provider to update database(s) associated with the functionality.
