RouteBot is a transportation management platform for school routes, employee shuttles, and on-demand passenger transfers. It runs on the web, Android, and iOS. Its optimizer distributes 1,000+ passengers across a fleet, balances vehicle loads, and calculates routes in under 10 seconds. Dispatchers can view active vehicles on a fleet map, while parents and employees can track vehicles in the mobile app. Role-specific app tools include driver navigation, passenger lists, live tracking, and push notifications. Fleet records cover owned and rented vehicles, drivers, maintenance, accidents, fuel payments, and third-party contractors. Passengers can check in with QR codes, and administrators can receive an alert when an expected passenger has not boarded. RouteBot supports importing existing Excel files and says setup can be ready by the next morning or within 24 hours. Drivers can navigate to stops using Google Maps integration. A live demo shows a sample dashboard without requiring signup or a credit card; its private sandbox can be kept as a free account. Pricing depends on fleet size and operating model and is shown in the platform.
