  • Publication number: 20240428151
    Abstract: A system provides a set of data to a user application on a computing device of a user, the set of data being used by the mobile computing device to display a map indicating the current location of the mobile computing device on the map, an estimated arrival time for a vehicle to rendezvous with the user, and a user interface feature operable by the user to request transport. The system can select a driver to fulfill the user's transport request and prior to transport being provided to the user, the system tracks a current location of the selected driver as the selected driver progresses to the pickup location and provides progress information of the selected driver to the user. Upon the user being picked up by the selected driver, the system tracks the selected driver from the pickup location to a drop-off location.

  • Patent number: 12131273
    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: 20140129302
    Abstract: A method for providing transport services is provided. A transport request for a transport service is received from a user. The transport request specifies at least one of a pickup or drop-off location. A confirmation panel is generated to display information corresponding to the at least one of the pickup location or drop-off location. On the confirmation panel, a map relevant to the at least one of the pickup location or drop-off location is displayed. Fare information relevant to the transport request is also displayed on the confirmation panel. A prompt is provided for the user to confirm the transport request.
