Route Planning Software That Puts Every Stop in the Smartest Order

Route planning software takes a list of stops and works out the best order to drive them, so your vehicles cover fewer miles and reach more customers in a day. It sorts the stops, respects delivery time windows, sends the route to the driver, and updates the ETA as the day unfolds. With AIQ Connect, all of it runs on your own server, under your own brand, with no fee per vehicle.

01
🧮

Multi-Stop Route Optimization

Give AIQ Connect a list of drop-offs and it works out the shortest, fastest order to drive them all. Instead of a planner guessing the sequence, the software sorts dozens of stops in seconds to cut total distance and time. That means less fuel, more jobs per shift and drivers who finish on time.

  • Best stop order worked out automatically
  • Dozens of stops sequenced in seconds
  • Shorter routes mean less fuel and time
02

Time Windows and Constraints

A good route is not just the shortest one. AIQ Connect plans around real rules: a customer who only accepts deliveries before noon, a vehicle that can carry so much, or a stop that needs a certain van. You set the constraints once, and every route it builds keeps those promises without you checking each one.

  • Delivery time windows kept on every stop
  • Vehicle capacity and load limits respected
  • Match a stop to the right vehicle or driver
03

Drag-and-Drop Route Editing

Plans change, so you stay in control. Drag a stop to a new spot and AIQ Connect instantly redraws the route and updates every ETA. Add a last-minute drop, remove a cancelled one, or move a job to another vehicle, all on one screen, and see the effect on distance and timing right away.

  • Reorder stops by dragging on the map
  • Add or remove a stop and re-plan at once
  • Move a job to another vehicle in a click

Live ETAs and Driver App

Once a route is set, it goes straight to the driver's phone with turn-by-turn steps. AIQ Connect tracks the vehicle live and updates each stop's ETA as traffic and delays happen, so your office and your customers always know when a van will arrive. No more calling the driver to ask where they are.

  • Route sent to the driver app with directions
  • Live ETA per stop, updated as things change
  • Office and customers see accurate arrival times

Turn a List of Stops Into a Smart Route

Drop in a day's addresses and AIQ Connect draws the best route on the map, numbered in the order to drive them. Each stop shows its planned arrival time, so the driver knows exactly where to go next. A plan that used to take a dispatcher an hour is built in seconds.

  • Optimized stop order drawn on the map
  • Planned arrival time on every stop
  • A full day's route built in seconds

Watch Routes Run and Re-Plan Live

Once drivers set off, every route event lands in one feed. A stop is marked done, a traffic delay pushes an ETA, or a new drop is slotted in and the route re-plans on the fly. Your office sees the real day as it happens and can re-route a driver in a click, without a single phone call.

  • Stop-done, delay and re-plan events in one feed
  • Live ETA changes as traffic and stops shift
  • Re-route a driver in a click from the office

See How Well Every Route Ran

Each finished route becomes a report you can learn from. Compare the planned route against what actually happened, see the on-time rate, and track the miles and hours the optimizer saved. Spot the routes that keep running late, so you can fix a tight schedule before it costs you again.

  • Planned versus actual route on every job
  • On-time rate and miles saved per vehicle
  • Find routes that need a schedule fix
Honest Comparison

Self-Hosted AIQ Connect vs Maps Apps and Cloud Route Planners

Most fleet route planning software is a maps app used by hand, or a cloud planner that bills per vehicle. Here is how both compare to a route optimizer on your own server.

FAQs

Route Planning Software, Common Questions

What is route planning software?
Route planning software takes a list of stops and works out the best order to drive them, so vehicles cover fewer miles and reach more customers in a day. It respects delivery time windows, sends the route to the driver, and updates the ETA as the day unfolds. With AIQ Connect, all of it runs on your own server under your own brand, with no per-vehicle fees.
How does route optimization work?
You give AIQ Connect the day's stops and any rules, like time windows or vehicle limits. The optimizer then tests many possible orders and picks the one with the shortest distance and time that still keeps every rule. It does in seconds what would take a dispatcher an hour by hand, and it can re-plan the moment a stop is added or cancelled.
Can it handle delivery time windows?
Yes. Each stop can have a time window, such as a customer who only accepts deliveries before noon. AIQ Connect builds every route so those windows are met, and warns you if a window is at risk during the day. That keeps promises to customers without a planner checking each stop by hand.
Can I change a route after it starts?
Yes. Plans change all day, so you can drag a stop to a new spot, add a last-minute drop, or move a job to another vehicle. AIQ Connect redraws the route and updates every ETA at once, then pushes the change to the driver app. Your driver always has the current plan, not yesterday's.
Do drivers get turn-by-turn directions?
Yes. Once a route is planned, it goes to the driver's phone with the stops in order and turn-by-turn directions to each one. The app tracks the vehicle live, so the office and the customer see an accurate ETA for every stop. Drivers spend less time working out where to go and more time delivering.
Can I put my own brand on it?
Yes. AIQ Connect is white-label, self-hosted fleet route planning software, so the planner and driver app carry your logo, your colors and your domain. Every route and stop stays on your own server, not a shared cloud. You can even offer route planning to your own clients under your brand, with no per-vehicle fees.
