See the estimated distance and time behind each shipment lane.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

Help a logistics team compare planned truck routes by calculating estimated driving distance, travel time, and route steps for each origin and destination. Keep the inputs and estimates together so teams can prepare control-tower views, explore transport scenarios, and identify lanes for closer review. Treat estimates as planning information, not a guarantee of actual road conditions or delivery time.

Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.

What this workflow could do

Helps transport teams prepare more consistent route comparisons for shipment planning, control-tower views, and cost scenarios.

Review points proposed in this idea

A route estimate may not reflect closures, traffic, vehicle restrictions, weather, or actual delivery conditions. Confirm routes with current operational sources before dispatch, and have a finance or logistics reviewer verify assumptions before using estimates for pricing, budgets, or commitments.

Choose origin and destination details

Confirm the locations and coordinates for each shipment lane before calculating an estimate.

Proposed setup considerations

These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.

  1. 01

    Prepare a consistent lane list

    Choose the origin, destination, and location format needed for each shipment route.

  2. 02

    Set vehicle and route assumptions

    Confirm the intended truck type and other route assumptions that affect estimates.

  3. 03

    Choose planning measures and units

    Decide how distance, duration, and route detail should be recorded for the team.

  4. 04

    Assign dispatch and cost reviewers

    Name who confirms current road conditions and who approves assumptions used for pricing or financial planning.
