Route Optimization API
Automatically generate dispatch-ready, multi-stop technician routes with 50+ hard and soft constraints — time windows, skill matching, shift hours, and vehicle capacity — delivered in seconds, at any scale.
Home service businesses lose hours and dollars every day to inefficient scheduling and wasted drive time. NextBillion.ai's Route Optimization API automates multi-stop technician routing with 50+ real-world constraints — time windows, skills, shift hours, and service durations — so your crews spend more time on-site and less time on the road. Built for scale, priced for margin.
A complete API suite purpose-built to schedule, dispatch, and track home service technicians at scale.
Automatically generate dispatch-ready, multi-stop technician routes with 50+ hard and soft constraints — time windows, skill matching, shift hours, and vehicle capacity — delivered in seconds, at any scale.
Optimize field service scheduling and routing end-to-end. Adapt routes instantly to last-minute job additions or cancellations, and balance technician territories using intelligent, travel-time-based zone planning.
Match the right technician to the right job instantly using dynamic dispatch logic — factoring in location familiarity, shift timing, order priority, and driver preferences for smarter 1:1 assignments.
Monitor every technician's real-time location with sub-meter accuracy. Send automated ETA alerts to customers, flag route deviations, and keep operations aware of field progress without manual check-ins.
Automate job arrival confirmations, proof-of-service triggers, and territory-based dispatch using configurable virtual boundaries around customer sites, depots, and restricted zones.
Push optimized technician routes and full job queues directly to driver apps or fleet management systems the moment planning is complete — eliminating manual handoffs and cutting dispatch time to seconds.
Home service operations — HVAC, pest control, plumbing, electrical, and landscaping — run on tight margins where every wasted mile and idle technician erodes profitability. NextBillion.ai's Route Optimization API handles the real-world complexity of field service routing: overlapping time windows, technician skill requirements, multi-stop shifts, and last-minute job changes. Unlike generic mapping APIs, it delivers dispatch-ready routes in seconds with predictable per-vehicle pricing — so seasonal demand spikes never blow your API budget. Trusted by ServiceTitan, Hawx Pest Control, and 150+ businesses globally.

Location technology veterans who built systems that move the world.
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.
The API supports skill-based matching as one of its 50+ hard and soft constraints. You can define required skills or certifications for each job — such as HVAC licensing, electrical certification, or pest control credentials — and the optimizer will only assign that stop to a qualified technician, while still minimizing total drive time and respecting shift windows across the entire schedule.
