About Routimize
Routimize is a US transport and logistics technology company. It solves complex fleet management problems for enterprises with high-volume last-mile deliveries, replacing labour-intensive planning with smart, data-driven tools.
The challenge
Routimize’s prospective customers planned routes by hand. Dispatchers scheduled hundreds of deliveries a day with spreadsheets, whiteboards and experience, which was slow and error-prone. Vehicle capacity, driver skills and delivery windows couldn’t be accounted for, so fleets were underused and fuel costs were higher than they needed to be.
Once a driver left the depot, dispatchers had little visibility, so customers couldn’t get accurate ETAs. Routimize needed a robust MVP to prove the vehicle routing problem could be solved digitally: a system that takes in orders and returns optimised routes immediately, handles the maths, and stays easy for non-technical dispatchers and drivers.
What Assystant did
We designed and built Routimize’s first VRP platform from scratch, focused on an MVP that fixed the core pain of manual routing: a routing engine, a map-based dashboard for dispatchers and a mobile app for drivers.
- A VRP engine in Django that runs the route optimisation algorithms
- A dispatcher dashboard in Angular for managing orders and seeing routes on a map
- A cross-platform driver app in Xamarin with daily schedules and turn-by-turn navigation, replacing paper manifests
- Secure APIs linking the dashboard, the app and the engine
The system was designed to be intuitive so dispatchers and drivers adopted it quickly.
