## Our Mission

We believe enterprise location technology should be as flexible as the businesses that rely on it.

Traditional mapping platforms were built primarily for consumer navigation. Modern logistics, field service, mobility, and transportation companies need much more—custom routing constraints, operational intelligence, real-time optimization, and seamless integration into existing workflows.

NextBillion.ai was created to give enterprises complete ownership of their routing and mapping experience while reducing costs, improving operational efficiency, and enabling innovation at scale. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

## Our Story

- **Founded by industry experts:** The company was founded by Ajay Bulusu, Gaurav Bubna, and Shaolin Zheng after building mapping infrastructure at Grab.
- **Born from real operational challenges:** The founders experienced firsthand the limitations of traditional mapping providers while scaling large logistics and mobility platforms.
- **Enterprise-first from day one:** NextBillion.ai was built specifically for businesses requiring configurable routing, optimization, and mapping APIs rather than one-size-fits-all consumer solutions.
- **Growing with Velocitor Solutions:** In 2025, NextBillion.ai entered a new chapter as part of Velocitor Solutions, combining AI-powered routing with enterprise fleet management expertise. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
