Abstract: An information processing apparatus, an information processing method, or a non-transitory storage medium plans a service schedule of vehicles that transport visitors to an event site. The apparatus includes a processor configured to execute: receiving advance purchase of goods sold in the event site from the visitors; setting a threshold for a total value of upper limit numbers of people up to which the goods can be handed over per predetermined period of time respectively at one or more shops at the event site; when the number of goods purchasers purchased the goods in advance exceeds the threshold, distributing the goods purchasers such that the goods purchasers in number smaller than or equal to the threshold get a ride on each vehicle; and planning the service schedule of the vehicles such that the number of goods purchasers who concurrently arrive at the event site does not exceed the threshold.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a controller configured to: divide a plurality of visitors into two or more groups based on reserved seat information; dispatch one or more vehicles for transporting the visitors to an event site group by group, the visitors belonging to any one of the divided groups; select the recommended goods that the visitors belonging to the any one of the groups use at the event site; and determine a content prompting the visitors belonging to the any one of the groups to purchase the recommended goods.

Abstract: A method that is performed by an information processing device includes: acquiring attribute information of each of a plurality of spectators who is going to visit an event venue; dividing the spectators into two or more groups based on the attribute information; and determining an operation plan for two or more vehicles so as to transport the spectators in the same group to the event venue by the same vehicle.

Abstract: A method that is performed by an information processing device includes: acquiring biometric information of each of a plurality of spectators who is going to visit an event venue; and determining, based on the biometric information, an operation plan for one or more vehicles to transport the spectators to and/or from the event venue.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a controller configured to: acquire a first image that is obtained by capturing an external appearance of a first vehicle that is operated as an on-demand bus; and provide the first image to a first user who is to get on board the first vehicle.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a controller configured to acquire first data for identifying a first user who is a user of an on-demand bus that is operated on demand, the first data being read by a signage apparatus installed at a boarding/alighting point of the on-demand bus, and make a boarding reservation for the on-demand bus based on the first data.
