Integration application utilizing a communications protocol

A computer system configured to facilitate communications over a plurality of communication platforms, each communication platform associated with a plurality of communication clients, wherein each communication platform is configured to transmit communications between communication clients associated with the communication platform, the computer system comprising:

• a chat monitor configured to monitor communications over a plurality of communication platforms;
• a parser coupled to the chat monitor and configured to detect whether a communication entered into a communication client corresponds to a communication protocol, the communication protocol including a protocol identifier and a plurality of primary protocol elements including a first user identifier and an instrument identifier;
• a protocol validator coupled to the parser and configured to validate communications corresponding to the communication protocol;
• and
• a database coupled to the protocol validator for storing validated communications.

A computer system for facilitating communications over a plurality of communication platforms, each communication platform associated with a plurality of communication clients, wherein each communication platform is configured to transmit communications between communication clients associated with the communication platform, the computer system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory comprising software that, when executed by the processor, performs operations that cause the processor to:
• monitor communications over a plurality of communication platforms;
• detect that a first communication entered into a first communication client of a first communication platform corresponds to a communication protocol, the first communication including a protocol identifier and a plurality of primary protocol elements including a first user identifier and an instrument identifier;
• store in a database, the first communication;
• detect that a second communication entered into a second communication client of a second communication platform corresponds to the communication protocol, the second communication including the protocol identifier and a plurality of primary protocol elements including a second user identifier and the instrument identifier;
• store in the database, the second communication;
• retrieve from the database, previously detected communications entered into any of the communication clients associated with any of the communication platforms and including the instrument identifier associated with the second communication, including retrieving the first communication;
• and
• transmit the retrieved first communication to the second communication client.

A non-transitory computer readable medium for facilitating communications over a plurality of communication platforms, each communication platform associated with a plurality of communication clients, wherein each communication platform is configured to transmit communications between communication clients associated with the communication platform, the non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• monitor communications over a plurality of communication platforms;
• detect that a first communication entered into a first communication client of a first communication platform corresponds to a communication protocol, the first communication including a protocol identifier and a plurality of primary protocol elements including a first user identifier and an instrument identifier;
• store in a database, the first communication;
• detect that a second communication entered into a second communication client of a second communication platform corresponds to the communication protocol, the second communication including the protocol identifier and a plurality of primary protocol elements including a second user identifier and the instrument identifier;
• store in the database, the second communication;
• retrieve from the database, previously detected communications entered into any of the communication clients associated with any of the communication platforms and including the instrument identifier associated with the second communication, including retrieving the first communication;
• and
• transmit the retrieved first communication to the second communication client.

• means for detecting that a second communication entered into a second communication client of a second communication platform corresponds to the communication protocol, the second communication including the protocol identifier and a plurality of primary protocol elements including a second user identifier and the instrument identifier;
• means for storing in the database, the second communication;
• means for retrieving from the database, previously detected communications entered into any of the communication clients associated with any of the communication platforms and including the instrument identifier associated with the second communication, including retrieving the first communication;
• and
• means for transmitting the retrieved first communication to the second communication client.
