NextBillion.ai delivers enterprise-grade geospatial API integration services built for logistics, transportation, and mobility platforms that demand accuracy, scale, and cost predictability. From real-time fleet tracking and route optimization to geofencing and distance matrix computation, our API suite replaces expensive, rigid mapping providers with flexible, AI-powered location intelligence — purpose-built for how modern operations actually run. Integration teams get modular APIs that can be adopted individually or as a full stack, covering planning, dispatch, live tracking, and post-trip route reconstruction. Pricing is structured around per-vehicle or per-order usage rather than per-call billing, so cost scales with actual operations rather than API call volume. On-premise and cloud-agnostic deployment options support organizations with strict data residency or compliance requirements, including U.S. logistics operators subject to FMCSA and DOT-related routing constraints.
A comprehensive API suite covering mapping, routing, tracking, geofencing, and spatial analytics for enterprise logistics and mobility platforms.
Build logistics dashboards, dispatch consoles, and customer-facing tracking interfaces with customizable, logistics-optimized map rendering powered by OpenStreetMap and TomTom data — without the cost unpredictability of consumer-grade mapping APIs.
Calculate real-time travel times, distances, and ETAs between up to 5,000×5,000 origin-destination pairs in a single call — with truck-aware routing, custom road attributes, and predictable per-vehicle pricing.
Define and monitor custom virtual geographic boundaries to trigger automated workflows — proof-of-delivery confirmations, proximity dispatch, restricted zone enforcement, and customer arrival notifications — in real time.
Track every vehicle, driver, and field agent with up to 1-meter accuracy in real time. Supports offline tracking, configurable event alerts, mileage reporting, and native integration with Samsara, Geotab, and custom driver apps.
Deliver precise, vehicle-specific turn-by-turn navigation for commercial fleets — with HGV-compliant routing, real-time traffic intelligence, custom road attribute integration, and multi-stop waypoint support.
Generate road-network-accurate travel-time and travel-distance polygons to define service zones, evaluate depot locations, design driver territories, and verify SLA reachability under real traffic conditions.
NextBillion.ai's geospatial API integration services replace expensive, one-size-fits-all mapping providers with a modular, AI-powered platform engineered for logistics, fleet management, and mobility at scale. Whether you're processing millions of distance calculations, reconstructing GPS-accurate trip records, or dispatching optimized routes to thousands of drivers simultaneously, every API is designed for the throughput, accuracy, and cost predictability that enterprise operations demand — with on-premise deployment available for organizations with strict data residency requirements. The platform is cloud-agnostic, deployable on AWS, Google Cloud, or Microsoft Azure, and supports Kubernetes-based on-premise installs for teams that cannot transmit location data externally. APIs cover the full operational lifecycle: mapping, geocoding, distance matrix, live tracking, geofencing, navigation, and route reconstruction, and each can be integrated independently or combined into a single connected system. Vehicle-specific routing accounts for truck dimensions, weight, and hazardous material restrictions rather than applying passenger-car assumptions to commercial fleets. Dedicated solutions engineers support integration with existing TMS, ERP, and telematics systems so operations teams can move off legacy mapping providers without disrupting live dispatch or planning workflows.

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.
Co-Founder
Gaurav Bubna drives product innovation at NextBillion.ai, bringing a proven track record of building successful products from scratch across ride-hailing, food delivery, and logistics. Before co-founding NextBillion.ai, Gaurav held product leadership roles at Grab, Ola, and Morgan Stanley — organizations where location technology and operational efficiency are existential. His time on Grab's Geo team alongside Ajay and Shaolin crystallized the vision: logistics and field service businesses needed enterprise-grade location intelligence without prohibitive per-call pricing. Since launching NextBillion.ai in 2020, Gaurav has led the product evolution that has helped the platform navigate over 557 million miles and raise $34.25M in venture capital from investors including Lightspeed and Microsoft's M12.
Co-Founder
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.
A geospatial API is a programmatic interface that lets applications access, process, and visualize location-based data, including mapping, routing, geocoding, distance calculation, geofencing, and real-time tracking. Logistics platforms, fleet management systems, navigation apps, and delivery tracking tools rely on geospatial APIs to translate raw geographic coordinates into operational decisions, such as which driver is nearest, whether a vehicle has entered a delivery zone, or the fastest compliant route for a given load.
