Our journey from side‑project to free route‑management platform
How a two‑person weekend hack grew into ROUTENEST — the web’s favourite free route‑management solution.
From side‑project to 50 k routes / day
In 2021, two friends built a weekend tool to juggle farmers‑market deliveries and plan routes more efficiently. The spreadsheet replacement went viral on Reddit, couriers piled in, and ROUTENEST was born.
Today the platform optimises millions of stops each month — yet our mission remains unchanged: make last‑mile logistics effortless and free.
Our mission
Democratise advanced route‑optimisation so any small business can compete with giants — without paying a cent.
Our vision
A world where every delivery route is optimised, inefficiency is zero, and urban air is cleaner because vans drive fewer miles.
