Our Story
The journey of innovation and growth
July 2020
The Spark of an Idea (Born During a Pandemic)
The story of RouteMate begins in the midst of the global pandemic. Recognising the struggles of a friend in the delivery business with manual route planning, our founding team saw an opportunity to revolutionise the industry.
October 2020
Version 1.0: Simplifying Delivery Management
Fuelled by a desire to streamline delivery operations, we launched the first iteration of RouteMateApp. This initial version focused on core functionalities like AI-powered route optimisation, helping businesses save time and fuel costs.

Building on Feedback: Enhanced Functionality
Customer feedback is paramount to our development process. In late 2022, we incorporated valuable user insights to introduce multi-tenancy support, assigned tasks, and custom forms. These features empowered businesses to manage complex delivery operations with greater efficiency.
