About ElasticRoute
A route planning and optimization software for businesses with delivery or field service operations. It solves the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) to create efficient, natural-feeling routes for drivers, accessible via a web dashboard and a REST API.
ElasticRoute is a fast, API-first route planning and optimization platform designed for logistics and field service businesses. It addresses the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) using a proprietary heuristic algorithm that generates natural, cluster-based routes which are more intuitive for drivers than typical radial plans. The platform can plan hundreds of stops in seconds and supports key operational constraints like delivery time windows, vehicle capacities, driver work schedules, and multi-depot operations. ElasticRoute offers a web-based dashboard for manual planning and CSV imports, as well as a comprehensive REST API for integration into custom workflows. It has a native integration with Detrack, its sister product for last-mile delivery tracking. The service offers a free tier and a 14-day free trial for its paid plans, making it accessible for businesses to evaluate. On-premise deployment is available for enterprise customers upon request.
