  • Publication number: 20230419390
    Abstract: Multiple users of a household can each have a different profile associated with a common account for an online concierge system. This association of different profiles with the common accounts allows the concierge system to show a user of the household what other users of the household purchased and rank items for suggestion to the user based one purchases of other users, facilitating order building. The online concierge system also enables a user profile to designate a user profile associated with the common account for an order pickup or as a contact for a home delivery. Additionally, association of different user profiles with the common account may be used for account recovery of one of the user profiles. Further, different user profiles may have different permissions for creating an order with the online concierge system.

  • Publication number: 20230394551
    Abstract: An online system provides options for selection by a user. The online system receives a query entered on a client device. The online system queries an item database to retrieve a set of items related to the query and assigns each item to a product category in a predefined taxonomy that maps items to product categories. The online system inputs each item into a prediction model trained to predict a probability that an item is available at a warehouse location. The online system determines that a first product category has low availability based on predicted probabilities for items in the first product category. Responsive to determining that a first product category has low availability, the online system generates a generic item for the first product category and sends a list of items including the generic item to the client device for display responsive to the query.

  • Publication number: 20230385762
    Abstract: A system receives an order from one or more user client devices associated with an account of the system, and transmits a first notification to the one or more user client devices that an order is ready for pick up at a pickup location. The system receives location data from a particular user client device of the one or more user client devices. The system determines an outer geofence based in part on a running average time or wait time at the pickup location in a recent time period, a size of the order, or a historical wait time associated with the account. In response to receiving an indication from the particular user client device that a user associated with the particular user has entered the determined outer geofence, the system transmits a second notification to a runner client device.

  • Publication number: 20230359471
    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to a computer device including a memory, and at least one processor configured to partition application files for multiple users of the computer device. The computer device creates a per-user location for a first user when installing an application package to an installation location. The application package includes a plurality of files for an application that are read-only for the first user. The computer device projects, via one or more filter drivers, installed package files from the installation location into the per-user location. The computer device receives a modification to the plurality of files for the application projected into the per-user location. The computer device writes at least one modified file into the per-user location. The computer device loads, during execution of the application by the first user, the at least one modified file from the per-user location for the first user.
