Straightaway

What Straightaway is

Straightaway plans and optimizes multi-stop delivery routes, then provides turn-by-turn navigation in its Android and iOS app. Drivers can add addresses manually or use the built-in camera to scan a manifest, package label, or Excel sheet; the camera workflow supports up to 500 addresses. The route optimizer considers traffic, weather, elevation, road conditions, construction, and 130 other data sources to choose a route in real time. A birds-eye view shows the driver’s location and upcoming nearby stops, and built-in directions mean drivers can navigate without switching apps. The free Starter plan allows up to 25 stops. Personal plans support up to 250 stops: the monthly plan costs $9.99 a month, and the annual plan costs $95.99 a year. Team pricing is custom, with vehicle tracking, unlimited routes, team discounts, and enterprise support listed. The app is presented for delivery drivers and use cases ranging from food delivery and retail routes to home healthcare and field sales. Straightaway’s privacy policy says the app may receive precise real-time location, route details, delivery photos, and notes, and says the company does not sell personal data.
