Route Optimization API
Generate dispatch-ready multi-stop delivery routes in seconds with support for 50+ hard and soft constraints — including time windows, vehicle capacity, driver shifts, and priority orders — at predictable per-order pricing.
E-commerce delivery volumes are relentless — and your routing infrastructure needs to keep pace without ballooning costs. NextBillion.ai's Route Optimization API is purpose-built for high-throughput fulfillment operations, supporting 50+ constraints, sub-second response times, and predictable per-order pricing. From same-day order injection to multi-depot dispatch, turn routing complexity into a competitive advantage.
End-to-end routing intelligence for e-commerce logistics — from order clustering and optimization to real-time dispatch and live tracking.
Generate dispatch-ready multi-stop delivery routes in seconds with support for 50+ hard and soft constraints — including time windows, vehicle capacity, driver shifts, and priority orders — at predictable per-order pricing.
Calculate real-time travel times, distances, and ETAs between up to 5,000 origins and 5,000 destinations in a single API call — eliminating costly batching and providing the cost matrix that powers route optimization.
Automate the handoff from optimized route plans to driver apps and fleet management systems instantly, with real-time dynamic reassignment when orders are added, cancelled, or disrupted mid-shift.
Monitor every delivery vehicle in real time with up to 1-meter location accuracy, configurable exception alerts, and live ETA recalculations that keep customers informed and operations in control.
Pre-segment large delivery stop volumes into proximity-based, capacity-balanced clusters before routing — reducing optimization complexity, minimizing dead miles, and enabling logical zone-based dispatch.
Define custom delivery zones, trigger automated proof-of-delivery confirmations, send real-time customer arrival notifications, and enforce routing restrictions around high-congestion or compliance-sensitive areas.
Connect your order management system or TMS via REST API to feed stop lists, delivery time windows, vehicle capacities, and driver shift parameters directly into the optimization engine — supporting batch imports and real-time order injection throughout the day.

Logistics technology veterans building routing infrastructure for the world's most demanding delivery operations.
Co-Founder
Gaurav drives product innovation at NextBillion.ai, bringing deep expertise built across some of the world's most demanding logistics and mobility platforms. Before co-founding NextBillion.ai, he built successful products from scratch in ride-hailing, food delivery, and logistics at Grab, Ola, and Morgan Stanley — giving him a ground-level understanding of the routing, dispatch, and operational challenges that logistics businesses face at scale. At NextBillion.ai, Gaurav applies this experience to designing an API platform that solves real operational problems: predictable pricing, 50+ optimization constraints, and routing infrastructure that genuinely scales with e-commerce and delivery demand. His product philosophy centers on making enterprise-grade location intelligence accessible and commercially viable for businesses of every size — from fast-growing logistics startups to global fulfillment operations.
Co-Founder
Ajay Bulusu is a co-founder of NextBillion.ai, bringing firsthand experience building geospatial technology at Grab — one of Southeast Asia's largest super-app and logistics platforms. His work at Grab's Geo team gave him direct insight into the limitations of existing mapping and routing solutions: their inflexibility, cost unpredictability, and inability to handle the operational complexity of large-scale delivery and mobility networks. This experience became the founding insight behind NextBillion.ai. Ajay has helped grow the company into a platform trusted by 150+ businesses globally, delivering over $11 million in measurable cost savings and optimizing more than 10.9 million deliveries. He is committed to building routing technology that is both powerful enough for enterprise logistics demands and commercially accessible for growth-stage operations teams.
Co-Founder
Shaolin Zheng is a co-founder of NextBillion.ai, contributing deep technical expertise to the platform's geospatial computation and routing infrastructure. Like his co-founders, Shaolin's background includes collaborative work on location technology at Grab, where the team identified a persistent gap between what enterprise logistics operations required from routing and mapping tools and what existing providers could deliver at scale and at reasonable cost. At NextBillion.ai, Shaolin has been instrumental in building a high-performance API platform capable of handling distance matrix computations at 5,000×5,000 scale, sub-second route optimization, and on-premise deployment for organizations with strict data sovereignty requirements. His work ensures that NextBillion.ai's routing infrastructure meets the reliability, latency, and accuracy standards that production e-commerce and logistics environments demand.
The API supports 50+ hard and soft constraints including customer delivery time windows, vehicle load capacity, driver shift hours, break requirements, priority stop ordering, and maximum route duration. These constraints are applied simultaneously within a single optimization call, generating routes that comply with all defined rules — without requiring manual post-processing or dispatcher overrides.
