Our AI-Powered Routing & Load Building Services

From route optimization and driver dispatch to live tracking and distance matrix computation, our platform covers every logistics workflow.

Route Optimization Software

Automatically generate dispatch-ready, multi-stop routes with 50+ hard and soft constraints—covering vehicle capacity, time windows, driver shifts, and regulatory compliance—in seconds, at any scale.

Distance Matrix API

Calculate real-time travel times, distances, and ETAs across matrices up to 5,000×5,000 origins and destinations in a single API call—without per-call pricing penalties or batching limitations.

Driver Assignment API

Instantly assign drivers to tasks using dynamic parameters including location familiarity, shift timing, order priority, and driver preferences—with real-time reassignment when plans change mid-operation.

Route Dispatch API

Automate the handoff from optimized route planning to on-road execution by pushing dispatch-ready routes directly to driver apps and fleet management systems the moment planning is complete.

Live Tracking API

Monitor every vehicle in real time with sub-meter location precision, configurable alerts for speeding or route deviation, and offline tracking support for low-connectivity zones.

Clustering API

Pre-segment large volumes of delivery stops and service tasks into geographically coherent clusters before routing—reducing optimization complexity, minimizing dead miles, and balancing driver workloads.

Meet the NextBillion.ai Founders

A founding team with deep roots in global-scale location technology.

Ajay Bulusu, Co-Founder of NextBillion.ai

Ajay Bulusu

Co-Founder

Ajay Bulusu is a co-founder of NextBillion.ai, bringing deep expertise in geospatial technology and large-scale location platform engineering. His journey began in 2017 as part of Grab's pioneering Geo team, where he helped build the location infrastructure underpinning one of Southeast Asia's largest mobility and logistics platforms. That experience revealed how critical — and how underserved — accurate, flexible location technology was for real-world operations. Driven by a mission to democratize sophisticated location intelligence, Ajay co-launched NextBillion.ai in 2020. Under his technical leadership, the platform has scaled to serve 150+ businesses globally, optimize over 10.9 million deliveries and field tasks, and deliver more than $11 million in documented cost savings to customers.

Shaolin Zheng is a co-founder of NextBillion.ai, contributing deep technical expertise in geospatial systems and scalable mapping infrastructure. Like his co-founders, Shaolin's formative experience building location technology for Grab's Geo team gave him firsthand insight into the operational gaps that generic mapping solutions leave unaddressed — particularly for field service and logistics businesses operating at scale. His engineering perspective shapes NextBillion.ai's core philosophy: location technology must be customizable, cost-predictable, and production-reliable. The platform he helped build now powers GPS tracking, route optimization, and field service intelligence for over 150 businesses worldwide, with on-premise deployment options and SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certifications ensuring enterprise-grade security.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI-powered routing and how does it differ from traditional route planning?

AI-powered routing uses machine learning algorithms and real-time data to automatically generate optimal multi-stop routes that account for dozens of simultaneous constraints—vehicle capacity, time windows, driver hours, truck dimensions, and traffic conditions. Traditional route planning relies on manual sequencing or basic shortest-path logic, which cannot handle the complexity of real-world logistics at scale without significant human intervention and error.

What types of constraints does the route optimization engine support?

How does NextBillion.ai's pricing compare to Google Maps or HERE Maps?

Can the platform handle truck-specific routing with height, weight, and axle restrictions?

How quickly can NextBillion.ai be integrated into an existing TMS or fleet management system?

Is on-premise deployment available for organizations with data residency requirements?

What size of distance matrix can the API handle in a single call?

Does the platform support real-time route updates and dynamic dispatch during active shifts?
