The shortest round, planned in one click
Press "Plan routes" and TifTif orders every rider's stops into the shortest round starting from your kitchen. In our six-stop test, the planned round was 19.8 km instead of 32.0 km — 38% less riding for the same six meals.
Route optimisation puts a rider's delivery stops in the order that covers the least distance. TifTif plans each rider's round for a date and meal starting from your kitchen, using a nearest-neighbour start improved with 2-opt swaps. In a scattered six-stop test, it cut the round from 32.0 km to 19.8 km.

What planning did to one round
Less riding, earlier deliveries
One click for every round
"Plan routes" re-plans every rider's round for the chosen date and meal at once.
Starts at your kitchen
Rounds begin from the kitchen location set in the super admin, where riders actually start.
Numbered stops
The rider sees every stop numbered on one map, in the order to ride them.
Road route per delivery
For each stop the rider gets the road route and ETA, and can hand off to Google Maps for turn-by-turn directions.
Re-plan after changes
Cancellations or a corrected address? Plan again and the round updates.
No per-route charges
Planning runs inside your own database, so there is no routing quota to pay for.

A good first guess, then fix the crossings
The planner starts from your kitchen and always goes to the nearest remaining stop. That gives a sensible round quickly, but it can leave the rider crossing their own path.
It then tries swapping sections of the round around (the "2-opt" method) and keeps any swap that makes the round shorter, until no swap helps. The result removes the back-and-forth that makes hand-planned rounds long.

How much shorter will my rounds be?
It depends on how scattered your stops are and how they are ordered today. In our six-stop test the planned round was 38% shorter (32.0 km down to 19.8 km); rounds that are already well ordered will save less.
Does it give turn-by-turn directions?
The rider app shows the road route and ETA for each stop and hands off to Google Maps for turn-by-turn navigation, which riders already know how to use.
Do I pay per route planned?
No. Planning runs inside your own database, so there is no per-route fee or external routing quota.
Can I plan different rounds for lunch and dinner?
Yes. Rounds are planned per rider, per date and per meal.
