Abstract

A system and method for providing curated content items is disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method includes selecting a first set of content items of a limited content curation from a plurality of available content items provided by a plurality of content provider servers, providing the first set of content items to a first user account on a first user portal that displays on a user device, receiving consumption information for the first user account regarding the first set of content items from the user device, selecting a second set of content items for the first user account based on the consumption information for the first user account, and providing the second set of content items to the first user account on the first user portal.

selecting a second set of content items for the first user account based on the consumption information for the first user account; and

providing the second set of content items to the first user account on the first user portal.

2 .

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein selecting the second set of content items for the first user account based on the consumption information for the first user account includes logging a history of the consumption information, and comparing the history of the consumption information with a predetermined criterion of the consumption information.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the consumption information includes one or more of a completed task associated with one or more content items of the first set of content items, a cumulative consumption time of the one or more content items of the first set of content items, a number of times of consumption of the one or more content items, a frequency of consumption of the one or more content items, and a number of content items of the first set content items that are consumed by the first user account.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a discovery path for the first user account, wherein the discovery path includes a plurality of content items from the first set of content items of the limited content curation from the plurality of available content items.

6 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

monitoring a completion progress of the discovery path based on the consumption information; and

modifying the discovery path based on the consumption information.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing the first set of content items to the first user account on a first user interface that displays on the first user portal, and providing the second set of content items to the first user account on a second user interface that displays on the first user portal.

8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

providing the first set of content items to the first user account of a plurality of first user accounts, wherein each of the first user accounts is associated with a respective subscriber account of a plurality of subscriber accounts;

receiving the consumption information for the first user account for each of the plurality of first user accounts;

selecting the second set of content items for the plurality of first user accounts based on the consumption information for each of the plurality of first user accounts; and

providing the second set of content items on the first user portal to each of the plurality of first user accounts.

9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising selecting the second set of content items for the plurality of first user accounts based on limited content curation analytics regarding the consumption information for each of the plurality of first user accounts.

10 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising selecting the second set of content items for the plurality of first user accounts from the plurality of available content items.

11 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a curation instruction that is configured by a second user account on a second user portal that displays on the user device; and

selecting the second set of content items for the first user account based on the consumption information for the first user account and the curation instruction.

12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the curation instruction includes a desired triggering event including a predetermined status of the consumption information for the first user account.

13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the curation instruction includes one or more of a completed task associated with one or more content items of the first set of content items, a threshold consumption time of the one or more content items, a threshold number of times of consumption of the one or more content items, a threshold frequency of consumption of the one or more content items, and a threshold number of content items of the first set of content items that are consumed by the first user account.

14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the first user account and the second user account are associated with a common subscription account.

15 . A system, comprising:

a first user portal that displays on a user interface of a user device, wherein the first user portal provides access to a first user account;

a user tracking engine that receives consumption information for the first user account regarding a first set of content items from the user device;

a content curation analytics engine that

selects the first set of content items of a limited content curation from a plurality of available content items provided by a plurality of content provider servers,

provides the first set of content items to the first user account on the first user portal,

select a second set of content items for the first user account based on the consumption information for the first user account, and

provide the second set of content items to the first user account on the first user portal.

16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the content curation analytics engine selects the first set of content items based on one or more of a demography associated with the first user account, a user preference associated with the first user account, a season, an event, a character, a relation, a geographical location, a desired content item provided by a content provider server of the plurality of content provider servers, and a promotional campaign provided by the content provider server.

17 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the content curation analytics engine selects the second set of content items for the first user account based on the consumption information for the first user account including logging a history of the consumption information, and comparing the history of the consumption information with a predetermined criterion of the consumption information.

18 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the consumption information includes one or more of a completed task associated with one or more content items of the first set of content items, a cumulative consumption time of the one or more content items, a number of times of consumption of the one or more content items, a frequency of consumption of the one or more content items, and a number of content items of the first set of content items that are consumed by the first user account.
