Methods and systems for correcting errors in transportation routes are provided. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes receiving a transportation request that includes at least two locations. A first route prediction may be generated based on a first set of previously-completed routes associated with the at least two locations. A first predictive model may compare the first route prediction with route information associated with a second set of previously-completed routes identified based on the first route prediction. A second route prediction may be generated based on the comparison and may be sent to a mobile device for presentation to a user.

Transportation route error detection and adjustment

The disclosed computer-implemented method may include receiving an indication that a transportation application has been initialized on a computing device and analyzing current dispatch conditions affecting the dispatch of transportation provider devices to the computing device. The method may also include determining, based on the analysis, that the current dispatch conditions allow for an ephemeral ride mode to be offered on the transportation application. The method may further include instructing, based on the determination, the computing device to at least temporarily present the ephemeral ride mode within the transportation application as a selectable option. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Systems and methods for enhanced transportation dispatch

The disclosed computer-implemented method may include dynamically selecting transportation options to present to a transportation requestor device based on current transportation network conditions and transportation requestor device history. In some embodiments, transportation network may have many different ways of arranging a transportation requestor's trip, such as private rides, shared rides, immediate rides, and delayed rides. In some examples, the requestor's choice of transportation option may have an impact on the transportation network. In anticipation of or in response to a transportation request, the method may determine which transportation options will better benefit the transportation network and determine which transportation options to display to the requestor and/or the prominence with which the transportation products are displayed. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
