  • Publication number: 20210319380
    Abstract: A system can receive location information from computing devices of drivers to determine current positions of each of the drivers as the drivers operate throughout a geographic region. The system can transmit data to a computing device of a user, causing the computing device to generate a map interface including (i) a map indicating a current location of the computing device of the user on the map, (ii) an estimated time of arrival for a particular vehicle to rendezvous with the user, and (iii) a user interface feature operable by the user to request transport. Based on the user configuring the user interface feature displayed on the map interface, the system receives a transport request specifying a pickup location and selects a driver to fulfill the transport request.

  • Patent number: 10743134
    Abstract: A method for providing on-demand service information is provided. One or more processors determine, for a given geographic region, position information for each of a plurality of requesters for an on-demand service and position information for each of a plurality of service providers that can provide the on-demand service. A plurality of sub-regions is identified for the given geographic region. Based, at least in part, on the position information of the requesters and the service providers, one or more sub-regions are determined as being under-supplied by the plurality of service providers as compared to one or more other sub-regions. Information identifying the under-supplied sub-regions are provided to one or more service provider devices.

  • Patent number: 10402841
    Abstract: A method for enabling a user to verify a price change for an on-demand service is provided. One or more processors can determine a real-time price for providing the on-demand service to the user. The one or more processors can determine when the real-time price is equal to or exceeds a threshold price. In response to a request from the user for the on-demand service when the real-time price is equal to or exceeds the threshold price, an intermediate interface can be provided that the user is to correctly respond to before a service request can be transmitted to a service system.

  • Publication number: 20130246301
    Abstract: A system and method are described for providing feedback for a transportation service. A rating user interface can be provided after completion of a service. In response to a user's providing a rating for the transportation service, additional rating features can be provided as part of the rating user interface. If the rating is equal to or higher than a predetermined level, the user may be enabled to share positive aspects of the service with other people. If the rating is below the predetermined level, the user may be enabled to indicate categories which the user was dissatisfied with.

  • Publication number: 20130246207
    Abstract: A method for adjusting prices for services is provided. One or more processors make a determination of an amount of requesters for a service at a given time and an amount of available service providers for providing the service at the given time. A price, relative to a default price, for using the service provided by one or more service providers is adjusted based on the determined amount of requesters and the determined amount of available service providers. Pricing data corresponding to the adjusted price is transmitted to one or more requesting devices or one or more provider devices so that the adjusted price can be displayed on at least one of the one or more requesting devices or the one or more provider devices and be indicative of an adjustment in price as compared to the default price.
