Route optimization — the real numbers on a 15-stop day

The setup

15 residential lawns across a 12-mile radius. Same crew, same jobs, same day.

Route A — dispatched in the order calls came in

104 total miles. 3 hours 21 minutes of drive time. Missed a lunch break.

Route B — Optimize Today's Route (Google Directions)

63 total miles. 1 hour 59 minutes of drive time. Crew ate lunch.

The savings

41 miles less driving. 82 minutes reclaimed. Enough for 2 more small jobs or an actually-happy crew at 5pm. On a Pro plan this button pays for itself in fuel savings alone within a week.

When it matters most

Route optimization compounds fast — the more stops per day, the bigger the win. If you're running 8+ stops per crew, this is the single highest- ROI feature on the platform.
