1. A system for customizing rideshares, comprising:
a plurality of vehicles, with each of the plurality of vehicles configured to transport a plurality of users, the users including passengers and prospective passengers, wherein each of the plurality of vehicles includes a biometric recognition device, wherein the biometric recognition device is a biometric scanner;
one or more data storage devices storing a set of subjective rideshare compatibility information for each of at least a first prospective passenger and a first passenger of the users;
at least one processor; and
memory encoding instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to:
calculate a match score between the first prospective passenger and the first passenger based on the set of subjective rideshare compatibility information of the first prospective passenger and the set of subjective rideshare compatibility information of the first passenger, wherein the match score is a measure of mutual compatibility between the first prospective passenger and the first passenger, the mutual compatibility being based on one or more of personal preferences of the first prospective passenger and the first passenger;
upon the match score exceeding a threshold value, offer a first vehicle occupied by the first passenger to the first prospective passenger for rideshare;
set a fare for the prospective passenger based on the match score, wherein the fare is higher for a higher match score;
present the set fare to the prospective passenger;
upon the prospective passenger accepting the presented fare, capture biometric data associated with the prospective passenger, including scanning one or more biometric features of the prospective passenger using the biometric scanner;
upon the biometric recognition device associated with the first vehicle verifying the biometric data of the prospective passenger, allow the prospective passenger to enter the first vehicle by unlocking one or more doors to the first vehicle; and
upon the prospective passenger accepting entry to the first vehicle, decrease the first passenger's fare.
