US Patent 9898772 Item recommendation

Techniques for providing a recommendation for an item may be provided. In particular, a system can provide a recommendation for one or more items based at least in part on how easily a system can fulfill the recommended item. The ease of fulfillment may be affected by one or more items selected or selected by the user, so that when two potential items can be recommended for the user, the item that is easier to provide to the user with the selected item can receive a better recommendation by the system (e.g., through a ranked or scored recommendation list, by limiting the recommended items provided to a user).
