Geofencing API
Create airport pickup zones, staging areas, restricted access corridors, and surge boundaries with custom geofences that trigger real-time actions when drivers or passengers enter, exit, or dwell within defined areas.
Streamline airport curbside operations with NextBillion.ai’s geofencing, live tracking, routing, and dispatch APIs built for ride-hailing, taxi, and mobility platforms. Define pickup zones, guide drivers to the right terminal area, automate zone-based alerts, and keep passenger ETAs accurate even when airport traffic patterns, access rules, or staging areas change throughout the day.

API-first tools for airport pickup zones, driver matching, live visibility, navigation, and operational control.
Create airport pickup zones, staging areas, restricted access corridors, and surge boundaries with custom geofences that trigger real-time actions when drivers or passengers enter, exit, or dwell within defined areas.
Support real-time passenger-to-driver matching with low-latency routing, airport pickup zone awareness, live tracking, and proximity-based dispatch logic built for mobility, taxi, and ride-sharing platforms.
Calculate travel times and ETAs between drivers, terminals, staging lots, and pickup points using large-scale real-time and historical matrices designed for high-volume mobility operations.
Track drivers and vehicles with up to 1-meter accuracy, configurable geofence alerts, route-deviation notifications, offline tracking support, and passenger-facing visibility for airport pickup experiences.
Provide drivers with traffic-aware turn-by-turn guidance that respects vehicle type, avoidance rules, custom road attributes, multi-waypoint routing, and airport-specific access constraints.
Let operations teams define no-entry zones, custom speed limits, temporary closures, turn restrictions, and pickup-lane permissions that instantly influence routing, ETA, and navigation calculations.

Define terminal pickup points, rideshare lots, staging areas, curbside lanes, restricted zones, and approach corridors using configurable polygons, circles, or custom geofence shapes aligned to your operating rules.
Trusted by mobility, logistics, and fleet operators managing complex real-world routing and location workflows.
Build airport pickup intelligence on infrastructure designed for high-volume mobility operations.
Composable APIs and SDKs integrate directly into existing ride-hailing, taxi, and mobility platforms.
Trial API keys are available for testing, with production go-live possible within one week.
Per-vehicle, per-order, or fixed monthly pricing helps avoid unpredictable API-call spikes.
99.9% uptime SLA, on-premise options, and security certifications support mission-critical operations.
Geospatial leaders building enterprise location intelligence at scale.

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.
Ride-hailing platforms typically use a combination of airport geofences, GPS location, terminal or door selection, airport-approved pickup zones, and driver navigation rules. When a passenger requests a ride, the app identifies the correct airport zone and guides the driver there. Platforms can also use live tracking, ETA calculations, and restricted-zone logic to keep pickups aligned with airport policies.
