Why teams choose this
What matters most with Carpool Route Optimizer
Clear driver info, fewer follow-up calls, and a plan that doesn't fall apart when the last-minute changes come in.
Nearest-driver assignment still creates bad detours.
Manual route planning breaks once more cars enter the mix.
You need the final pickup sequence, not only distance estimates.
