Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure enable contextual user experiences to be provided. A computing system receives sensor data from an appliance associated with a first user account, and analyzes the sensor data to identify a product and one or more second user accounts associated with the product. The second user accounts are used to aggregate product data associated with the product, and the product data is used to generate catalog data associated with the product. The catalog data includes one or more portions associated with the second user accounts and is transmitted to a client device associated with the first user account to prompt a first user to enter into a transaction associated with the product. Each portion of the catalog data is selectable to facilitate the transaction between the first user and a respective second user associated with the second user accounts.
