FAQs
How is NextBillion.ai different from Google or HERE routing APIs?
NextBillion.ai route planning APIs are designed for margin-sensitive logistics which need advanced constraints to solve complex and large-scale routing problems without breaking the bank.
Which map data do you use to calculate distance matrices?
We use Open Street Maps and TomTom which allows us to tailor and control the quality of routes much better. That said, these maps are not hardcoded into our route solver. We swap in new map data depending on what works best for a given territory or routing problem.
Are your routes and estimates as accurate as Google's?
Yes, on accuracy, NextBillion.ai route planning APIs is comparable to Google’s solution. We recommend you [book a trial onboarding call and get a trial API key](https://nextbillion.ai/book-a-demo) to compare the results.
Which countries and regions do you support route planning APIs for?
NextBillion.ai route planning APIs support all countries and regions across the globe. We even swap in new map data depending on what works best for a given territory or routing problem.
Do you consider real-time traffic when calculating ETAs and mileage?
Yes, like every other mapping solution, NextBillion.ai takes into account real-time traffic data to calculate distance matrices and suggest the most efficient routes.
Do you also provide routes and mileage for trucks?
Yes, NextBillion.ai route planning APIs let you specify “truck” as your mode of transport and define “vehicle dimensions” to identify routes and calculate transit time and mileage in compliance with trucking regulations.
How many stops do you support in a routing problem?
NextBillion.ai route planning APIs support up to 10,000 stops for route optimization. And upto 5000x5000 matrix size for calculating distances and ETAs between origins and destinations.
Are your route planning APIs AI- or ML-powered?
We do have AI/ML capabilities in our roadmap. We can even create a unique instance for you if you want to teach the algorithm on your own data.
How are your route planning APIs priced? Is it per API call?
Besides the number of total API calls you make, we offer you the alternative of paying for the volume of orders you generate or the number of vehicles/agents you work with.
Do you provide alerts when we cross API usage thresholds?
Yes, with NextBillion.ai, you can enable alerts when you reach 50%, 75%, and 90% of your allocated API usage.
Do you charge for support or professional services?
No, we do not charge anything for support or professional services.
Do you charge extra for adding new features or capabilities?
No, we are always eager to add capabilities based on market needs, and rather quickly. Some new features we are adding currently are - distance matrix caching for faster re-optimizations, zone-wise route sequencing, and zone-wise task grouping.
What is the term of your contract?
NextBillion.ai enters into annual contracts, with complete flexibility for modifying allocated API usage.
What kind of latency or speed can I expect?
You can expect a response for many thousands of elements in about 5 seconds. (the number of origins times the number of destinations equals the number of elements).
What is your service level guarantee or SLA for uptime?
We offer an on-contract guarantee of 99.9% uptime.
