May 29, 2026 \u2013 Fama Technologies, providers of AI-powered online screening, has announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has allowed all claims in its patent application covering the foundational technology behind social media background screening. The patent, titled \u201cSystem for Searching and Correlating Online Activity with Individual Classification Factors,\u201d has a priority date of November 30, 2015, establishing Fama as the original inventor of the technology that has since become a critical component of modern hiring and risk management.<\/p>\n

The core technology that powers the category was invented here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The allowed patent encompasses 22 claims spanning key components of Fama\u2019s technology pipeline: extracting personally identifiable information from source documents, retrieving online activity from social media platforms and websites, transforming unstructured image data into structured datasets using object recognition, classifying content using machine learning algorithms trained on inter-rater agreements, and presenting results through an interactive reporting interface.<\/p>\n

A Decade of Innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fama\u2019s patent journey began with a provisional application filed on November 30, 2015, when non-tech players in the market proliferated. Ever since, Fama has worked with a series of lawyers, IP experts, and USPTO examiners to navigate the patent approval process, eventually securing the IP in March 2026.<\/p>\n

Over that period Fama\u2019s feature set has also evolved to include video analysis, multilingual screening, and monitoring. It has also developed a series of unique approaches…<\/p>\n
