Abstract

This disclosure describes techniques for automatic triggering of contextual suggestions based on web page content via a web browser. With user permission, the webpage content, including the uniform resource locator (URL) and page content are analyzed to determine whether to trigger contextual suggestions. For example, a simple web page may be analyzed using a client-side script. A user interface element with a suggestion is displayed if the analysis indicates that a suggestion is appropriate. For example, a suggestion to add ingredients to the user’s shopping cart may be triggered when a user views a recipe web page. The suggestion may be overlaid on the web page in the browser user interface. Appropriate thresholds are used to trigger only such suggestions that are helpful.
