Create a route and schedule planning application for small delivery businesses managing multiple destinations, drivers, vehicles, and delivery time windows.
Allow users to import delivery addresses, parcel sizes, service durations, driver shifts, vehicle capacities, customer time windows, and optional traffic estimates. Validate incomplete addresses and flag deliveries that cannot be assigned under the supplied constraints.
Generate candidate delivery routes that balance distance, driving time, vehicle capacity, delivery priorities, and operating costs. Let users compare different fleet sizes, dispatch times, stop orders, and workload assignments.
Include a live planning board for manually moving deliveries between routes, plus an explanation of why each assignment was suggested. When conditions change, recalculate affected routes without silently discarding previously confirmed commitments.
Use a routing service when available; otherwise, label simplified travel estimates clearly. Never invent precise traffic conditions or guaranteed arrival times. Export driver manifests, route instructions, and a summary of estimated operational costs.
