Before & after
From manual to automatic
Suboptimal routes cost you unnecessary kilometers and fuel
- Planners create routes based on experience, not data — which leads to unnecessary kilometers.
- Last-minute changes (extra stops, cancellations) are handled manually, impacting the entire route.
- Real-time traffic information is not considered, leaving drivers unnecessarily stuck in traffic.
Optimal routes that adapt to reality
- Calculates the optimal stop sequence for all stops, accounting for time windows, capacity, and distance.
- Adjusts routes in real-time when changes occur: new stops, cancellations, or delays are processed immediately.
- Accounts for vehicle type, load capacity, and license requirements when assigning orders to drivers.
- Reports on driven kilometers, fuel consumption, and delivery reliability per driver and route.

Frequently asked questions
Does the agent account for customer time windows?
Yes, customer-specific time windows are treated as a hard constraint. The agent plans routes so that all time windows are met, adjusting stop order and driver assignment accordingly.
Can the agent adjust routes in real-time?
Yes, when new orders, cancellations, or traffic events occur, the agent immediately recalculates the affected route and communicates the change to the driver.
What does it cost and how long does implementation take?
Standard agents like this start from €2,500, or from €5,000 for a custom build; a free AI scan is a good first step. Implementation for route planning typically takes about 4 weeks, since it involves connecting to your TMS or ERP system and GPS data.
How is my route and customer data protected?
Route, address and delivery data is processed on EU-based infrastructure in line with GDPR requirements, and a data processing agreement can be signed on request. Only the data needed for planning, such as addresses, time windows and vehicle capacity, is used.
Which systems does the route planner connect with?
The agent connects to your TMS or ERP system, such as Exact Online, Navision or SAP, plus navigation data from Google Maps, TomTom or HERE, and can send driver updates via WhatsApp Business, SMS or app notifications.
Does the agent send routes to drivers automatically, or do I review them first?
You decide: routes can be sent directly to drivers once generated, or held for a planner to review and approve first. Manual overrides remain possible at any time if local knowledge suggests a better sequence.
Can we adjust the planning rules to match our fleet and drivers?
Yes, vehicle type, load capacity, license requirements and driver-specific constraints are all configurable, so the setup reflects how your fleet actually operates. Rules can be updated as your fleet or delivery area changes.
