How AI is used

SmartRoutes is a delivery management platform designed to help businesses coordinate their fleet and plan multi-stop routes. It combines routing algorithms with a driver-facing app to handle the process from order placement to final delivery.

The tool supports businesses operating in sectors such as eCommerce, pharmacy, and home delivery. It helps create routes that factor in vehicle capacities and time windows, which may help reduce wasted mileage.

Beyond routing, the software includes tools for capturing proof of delivery and sending automated notifications to customers. This is designed to help reduce the volume of customer queries regarding order status.

Buyers should confirm which pricing tier they need, as features such as fleet tracking and Shopify integration are available on the Essentials and Premium plans.
