In the web versionβ appeared the tool βRoutes for Small Businessβ: it will help small companies that are engaged in delivery to optimize routes, and therefore reduce costs.
The system is based on the Yandex.Routing logistics platform. She can simultaneously plan routes for a large number of cars and foot couriers, as well as track how orders are being fulfilled.
"Yandex.Routing" takes into account a large number of different parameters. These are traffic congestion, type of transport used, destination addresses, distances and much more.
The Small Business Routes tool can calculate which route is shorter and takes less time. It is enough for the user to enter in any order the addresses that the driver needs to visit. After that, the system will go through all possible combinations of given places, taking into account the forecast of traffic congestion.
The basic version of the new service is provided free of charge. You can specify up to 50 addresses for one route. Moreover, delivery can be scheduled for the desired date.
βThe tool is suitable for companies with a small number of full-time or hired drivers. For example, shops, cafes and dry cleaners that deliver orders around the city or several districts, βYandex notes.
