Our Story
From tears to transformation
Have you ever witnessed a moment so powerful it changes everything? That’s how RouteOps was born.
Picture this: A software demo in Washington state. A room filled with anticipation.
And then, something unexpected – tears in the eyes of a seasoned NEMT business owner.
Why? Because what he saw on the screen wasn’t just software.
It was hope.
The problem we saw
For months, we’d immersed ourselves in the world of NEMT.
We saw dedicated professionals spending 3-4 hours every day, poring over spreadsheets, manually scheduling 100 to 200+ trips.
It was a puzzle with too many pieces – vehicle capacity, fuel efficiency, distance optimization, and countless other constraints.
We knew there had to be a better way.
The solution we built
That’s when RouteOps was born.
We crafted a solution that could do in 5 minutes what took hours manually.
But it wasn’t just about saving time.
It was about giving NEMT businesses their future back.
Our auto-scheduling feature doesn’t just assign trips.
It optimizes for fuel, distance, vehicle capacity, and various constraints.
It’s like having a team of genius dispatchers working 24/7, but faster and more precise.
The moment that changed everything
Back to that demo room.
As the RouteOps system whirred into action, assigning hundreds of trips in minutes, we saw more than efficiency.
We saw relief.
Hope.
And yes, tears.
“This gives me back 3 hours every day,” the business owner said, his voice thick with emotion.
“That’s time I can use to grow my business, to innovate… or just to breathe.”
It wasn’t just about being efficient.
For many, it was a lifeline for their business.
