Backroute
The fully autonomous AI dispatcher for carriers. You drive. We find, negotiate, book, track, document, and chain the next load — across email, SMS, and voice. No human dispatcher required.
This repo contains a working product prototype: two dashboards and a driver app, all sharing a live, simulated AI-dispatcher engine so the product can be demoed end-to-end without any external services.
What's inside
- Landing page (
/) — pitch-ready marketing site with a live activity ticker.
- Carrier Dashboard (
/carrier) — overview, load pipeline, live negotiations (email/SMS/voice threads and call transcripts), fleet & HOS, earnings/savings analytics, and agent settings.
- Backroute Ops (
/ops) — internal mission control: platform-wide carriers, AI agent fleet monitor, global load flow, broker scorecards, escalation queue, and revenue/take-rate analytics.
- Driver App (
/driver) — mobile-first PWA-style app: current + next (already-chained) load, load history, AI dispatcher chat, BOL/POD capture, and profile/HOS.
The simulation engine
src/lib/engine.ts and src/lib/store/ implement a client-side "AI dispatcher" that continuously sources loads, scores net profit (rate − fuel − tolls − deadhead), negotiates over email/SMS/voice with converging offers, books and syncs to a TMS, dispatches, tracks in-transit status, captures documents, delivers, and pre-negotiates the next load before the current one delivers (load chaining) — all visible live across every screen.
Getting started
npm install
npm run dev
Open http://localhost:3000. Visit /carrier, /ops, or /driver directly, or start from the landing page.
Demo and real version
/demo is the link to share: the whole product on a sample fleet, no account, nothing saved or sent. A yellow bar on every demo screen says so. Run it as its own site; on the real site, NEXT_PUBLIC_DEMO=off removes the demo completely (DEPLOY.md, "Two sites").
The real version switches on from environment variables:
