Abstract

Computer-based systems and methods that determine interest profiles of contacts of work product. The contact interest profiles may indicate the contacts' interests in particular topics of research work product and/or analyst teams within the research department that produced the research work product. The contacts' interest profiles may be determined based on research work product accessed by the contacts according to topic and/or analyst team that produced the research work product, the interaction of the contacts with the research department, and any other reliable information indicative of the contacts' topic and/or team interests. Also, research work product items produced by the entity may be rated for each contact based on, for example, the topic(s) of the research work product items and the analyst teams that produced the research work product items, as well as the contacts' topic and/or analyst team interests.
