Our patent disclosure

  1. Provider historical performance
  2. Future schedule adjustment

Where the architectures diverge

  • Thumbtack evidence focuses strongly on matching and response selection.
  • The patent position includes future schedule adjustment.
  • That distinction is commercially important and should be preserved in all messaging.

Public Evidence

Each record exposes the source, publisher, date, direct link, relevant extract, what it establishes, what it does not establish and evidence confidence.

Classification language rule: "Not Publicly Established" records the limits of public evidence reviewed. It is not a finding that the company does not operate the technology. Forward-looking items are labelled: Potential Future Patent Development — Subject to Patent Attorney Review.
