Abstract: A concierge system identifies retail locations within a distance of a picker client device of a picker. This distance defines a zone and the system provides a map of the zone for display within a picker client application. For each retail location in the zone, the system determines a batch volume for the retail location and an average batch volume for the zone and generates a batch availability score using a model trained on batch volumes for the retail location and batch volume for the zone. The batch availability score can be a value reflecting batch availability or busyness of the retail location relative to other retail locations or can be a wait time prediction in minutes until the picker receives a batch at the retail location. The system modifies how the retail locations are displayed on the map to emphasize those with batch availability scores above a threshold value.

A first and a second client, a first target amount of resource can be allocated to a first client, and a second target amount of resource can be allocated to a second client for using the service. A request can be received from a third client for allocating resources; estimating that (i) the first client is using a first subset of the first target amount and not using a second subset of first target amount, and (ii) the second client is using a third subset of the second target amount and not using a fourth subset of second target amount. It can be determined that the second subset is greater than the fourth subset.
