Systems and methods for determining the effectiveness of vehicle safety features are provided. Vehicle build information (VBI) for vehicles manufactured by a plurality of OEMs may be obtained. The VBI may contain OEM-specific terminology for smart safety features associated with each vehicle. The obtained VBI may be analyzed to generate an ontology model mapping each feature to any OEM-specific terminology associated with the feature. The ontology model may be applied to the VBI to generate translated VBI for each vehicle, such that the OEM-specific terminology associated with each feature is replaced with OEM-agnostic terminology for the feature. Vehicle accident record information may be obtained for each vehicle, including, e.g., the number, frequency, severity, etc. of accidents associated with each vehicle. Using the OEM-agnostic terminology for each feature associated with each vehicle and the vehicle accident information for each vehicle, an effectiveness score associated with each feature may be calculated.

Systems and methods relating to improving the experience of gig-economy workers are disclosed, with particular reference to gig-economy work involving vehicle use. During or after performance of gig-economy work, data automatically collected may be used to generate and present recommendations or education points to gig-economy workers. Such recommendations may include targeted alerts to notify gig-economy workers of high-demand situations or to coordinate between gig-economy workers and gig-economy customers. Alerts may be generated based upon current excess demand for gig-economy services, as well as gig-economy worker availability and preferences. For example, alerts may be generated in response to detecting emergency conditions in an area in order to mobilize a large number of gig-economy transportation service providers.

Systems and methods relating to improving the experience of gig-economy workers are disclosed, with particular reference to gig-economy work involving vehicle use. Such systems and methods include automatically monitoring and evaluating activities such as driving during performance of gigs, as well as providing recommendations based thereupon. Transferable tokens may be used to apply information across various types of gig activities. Such a transferable token may represent one or more risk levels associated with a gig-economy worker to provide reputational information between gig-economy platforms or between types of gig-economy activities. Thus, the transferable token may enable a gig-economy worker to transfer high customer ratings across gig-economy platforms.

Systems and methods of using a transferrable token for gig-economy activity assessment

Systems and methods relating to improving the experience of gig-economy workers are disclosed, with particular reference to gig-economy work involving vehicle use. Such systems and methods include automatically monitoring and evaluating activities such as driving during performance of gigs, as well as providing recommendations based thereupon. Gig-related activities may be automatically detected based upon data provided by a mobile device associated with the gig-economy worker, thereby automatically generating a record of such activities for the worker. Telematics data indicative of movement of a vehicle may be collected and analyzed to detect gig-economy activities. During or after performance of gig-economy work, data automatically collected may be used to generate and present recommendations or education points to the gig-economy worker.
