Personalized information from venues of interest

A computerized method for providing personalized information to a user from one or more venues that are of interest to the user, the method comprising:

• monitoring user data to determine a pattern of user interactions by the user with the one or more venues, wherein the pattern of interactions is based on repeated interactions with the one or more venues over time, wherein the pattern of interactions with each venue comprises a pattern including at least one day and at least one time of day,
• wherein the user data comprises sensor data from user computing devices associated with the user, and wherein each venue comprises an entity that is associated with information or announcements via one or more information sources;
• determining a set of venues relevant to the user, the set of venues determined at least in part based on the pattern of user interactions with each venue by the user, determined from the sensor data associated with the user;
• for a venue in the set of venues, determining one or more sources of information for the venue, wherein the one or more sources of information provide items of information that are associated with the venue;
• determining, from the items of information, an item of information that is associated with at least one source of information by the venue;
• determining a relevance of the item of information to the user, wherein determining the relevance of the item information is based on comparing the pattern of interactions with the venue by the user including at least one day and at least one time of day to the corresponding extracted relevance-related features in the item of information including at least one day and at least one time of day corresponding to a change in open hours of the venue identified in the item of information;
• determining an urgency of the item of information to the user, wherein determining the urgency of the item information is based on comparing the pattern of interactions with the venue by the user to extracted urgency-related features in the item of information;
• and
• based on determining that the item of information is relevant to the user and the urgency of the item of information, providing a notification of the item of information associated with the change in open hours of the venue and the urgency.

A computerized system comprising:

• one or more sensors configured to provide sensor data associated with one or more user devices of the user;
• a venue-information clearinghouse configured for receiving venue information published by a set of venues and for making the received venue information accessible to a personal assistant service, wherein the venue-information clearinghouse provides an application programming interface (API) to each venue, and wherein the venue-information clearinghouse receives the venue information from each venue by way of the API;
• a data store configured to store clearinghouse account information comprising accounts for the venues that use the venue-information clearinghouse, and user accounts for facilitating access to the venue information by the user;
• a venue monitor configured to monitor user data to determine a pattern of user interactions by the user with one or more venues,
• wherein the pattern of interactions is based on repeated interactions with the one or more venues over time, wherein the pattern of interactions with each venue comprises a pattern including at least one day and at least one time of day,
• wherein the user data comprises sensor data from user computing devices associated with the user, and wherein each venue comprises an entity that is associated with information or announcements via one or more information sources;
• the venue monitor further configured to determine one or more venues relevant to the user based on the patterns of interactions, to monitor information items published by the one or more venues;
• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer storage media storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• monitoring the published venue information accessible via the clearinghouse to determine, from the information items, an item of information published by a venue and a relevance to the user, wherein determining the relevance of the item of information is based at least in part on the sensor data and comparing a first set of features of the pattern of interactions with the venue by the user including at least one day and at least one time of day to a second set of features corresponding to features in the item of information including at least one day and at least one time of day corresponding to a change in open hours of the venue identified in the item of information;
• and
• providing a notification of the item of information associated with the change in open hours of the venue.
