The NEXTBILLION.AI DIRECTIONS API is designed for product and tech leaders in high-performing transportation & logistics to compute precise, compliant, and context-aware routes for a single vehicle. It addresses common pain points of traditional APIs by offering low-latency and high-scale performance, ensuring fast and consistent results even with millions of requests, making it perfect for large fleets. The API provides cost-effective and predictable pricing models, moving away from per-API call billing. A key strength is its vehicle-specific routing, which generates routes tailored to vehicle type, size, and cargo, ensuring compliance with truck-only rules and commercial road restrictions. This API allows users to add multiple stops (waypoints) along a route for pickups, drop-offs, and service stops, and provides routes that align with real-world rules, road restrictions, and business requirements. It also factors in restrictions for heavy, long, or hazardous cargo vehicles across various terrains and offers traffic-aware routing with real-time and historical data, ensuring compliance with Hours of Service (HOS) regulations for commercial drivers. This comprehensive routing solution helps businesses improve operational KPIs, reduce scheduling time, save API costs, and lower operating costs, as evidenced by its adoption by companies like Ryde Technologies, GOIN, and Gojek.
