Frequently asked questions
Features
NextBillion.ai route planning APIs are designed for margin-sensitive logistics which need advanced constraints to solve complex and large-scale routing problems without breaking the bank.
We use Open Street Maps and TomTom which allows us to tailor and control the quality of routes much better. That said, these maps are not hardcoded into our route solver. We swap in new map data depending on what works best for a given territory or routing problem.
Yes, on accuracy, NextBillion.ai route planning API is comparable to Google’s solution. We recommend you book a trial onboarding call and get a trial API key to compare the results.
NextBillion.ai route planning APIs support all countries and regions across the globe. We even swap in new map data depending on what works best for a given territory or routing problem.
Yes, like every other mapping solution, NextBillion.ai takes into account real-time traffic data to calculate distance matrices and suggest the most efficient routes.
Yes, NextBillion.ai route planning APIs let you specify “truck” as your mode of transport and define “vehicle dimensions” to identify routes and calculate transit time and mileage in compliance with trucking regulations.
NextBillion.ai APIs support 50+ hard and soft routing constraints, including shift timings, capacity, skills, vehicle movement, vehicle type, delivery windows, travel cost, service time, overtime, task dependencies, and more. Learn more by exploring the documentation on our website.
