Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for dynamically matching requestor devices to generate efficient transportation groups that satisfy user-selected arrival deadlines. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems generate timeslots corresponding to a transportation request including pick-up times, arrival deadlines, and transportation values. In response to receiving user selections of timeslots, the disclosed systems can partition requestor devices into sets of requestor devices. Additionally, the disclosed systems can utilize the sets of requestor devices to match compatible requestor devices to both maximize system efficiency and satisfy selected arrival deadlines for each requestor device.
