Let Timefold do the heavy lifting

Capacity

Every route respects vehicle capacity, current load, and demand, so a driver is never assigned more than they can carry.

Time windows

Each stop is scheduled inside the time window the customer has agreed to be available.

Priority stops

Mark jobs as mandatory or optional, and the solver always serves your highest-priority stops first when not everything fits.

Shift start time, locations and breaks

Routes honor each driver's shift start, their start and end locations, and any breaks they're owed.

Reactive job handling

Instantly reoptimize schedules when emergencies or last-minute requests come in without breaking existing plans.

SLAs

Promised due times and service commitments are enforced, so each job is served within the window you've guaranteed the customer.
