Product Updates: How to optimize the last mile—fewer disruptions, more control

Every minute lost to poor route planning, a driver without the flexibility to act, or a dispatch that didn't start on time is felt directly in the delivery experience. That’s why this edition covers four improvements now available in Janis Commerce, all aimed at the same goal: making your last-mile operation rely less on manual adjustments and more on intelligent decision-making.
‍

AI Route Optimizer • Routes that adapt to each vehicle
‍

Not all vehicles in your fleet have the same capacity, and routes shouldn't be planned as if they did. It is now possible to calculate routes based on the actual capacity of each unit, ensuring that both the load and the journey make sense from the very first kilometer.

Janis Delivery • Drivers with more room to solve problems
‍

The last mile rarely goes exactly as planned. With more autonomy in the app, your drivers can make decisions on the fly—without waiting for a call—and keep the operation moving even when the scenario changes.

Dispatch management • Dispatches that don't depend on everything being ready

An incomplete order no longer holds up the rest. Partial dispatch management allows you to move forward with what is available, ensuring that a single missing item doesn't delay an entire route.
‍

Slot Management • Delivery windows under control, before it's too late
‍

Anticipating a potential delay is different from regretting it later. You can now monitor the status of each delivery window in advance, allowing you to act in time rather than after the promise has already been broken.

None of these improvements solve the last mile on their own. But together, they remove friction from every stage: planning, routing, dispatching, and delivery. And that is, ultimately, the logic behind every update we make in Janis Commerce.
