Too wide a gap between actual arrival times and estimated numbers? Get reliable and accurate ETAs with NextBillion.ai Directions API. Leverage multiple data sources, including historical and real-time traffic data, to generate optimized routes. Set custom parameters such as waypoints, route avoidance, alternative routes and driving mode.
Generate vehicle-specific custom routes
Break away from the ‘one map fits all’ approach. Get tailored guidance for all modes of transportation, including cars, trucks, motorbikes, and pedestrians. Access precise turn-by-turn directions for advanced route planning, optimization, and analysis.
Plan ahead with time-dependent routing
Want to plan routes in advance for time-sensitive orders and service requests? Optimize dispatch with our departure time-based directions that factor in traffic conditions at the future departure time. Improve resource utilization, on-time delivery, and reduce operating costs.
Get custom and flexible directions based on vehicle size and weight
Don't let size and weight road restrictions and limitations hinder your fleet's movement. Define the dimensions and weight of your vehicle fleet to get optimized routes that avoid restrictions and detours. Reduce the risk of accidents, save time and costs, and ensure timely delivery.
Identify the shortest and fastest routes
With our Directions API, prioritize cost savings or speed based on your business needs. Optimize routes for the shortest distance to reduce fuel costs and emissions while saving time, or find the fastest routes that avoid toll roads or highways with heavy traffic.
