The way to reduce the cost of the order by 30%

The Distance Matrix API, distance and fuel consumption optimization for the "Waterbox" platform

Waterbox (https://water-box.ru) is the only unique IT company in Russia that provides its customers with a convenient and fast way of ordering a sewerage service. Every day our platform serves lots of orders and, hence, it has to find out the most appropriate and sufficient way of scheduling a work of tunk trucks. This leads to the biggest problem of that sphere: to find the most effective way of calculating distance and, therefore, to minimize fuel consumption.

About

Every day a lot of people use our platform and it calls servers to maintain a large amount of work. In particular, one of the main tasks is to find the most appropriate way to connect a user location and one of the sewage treatment plants. In fact, this is the main aspect in generating a price of the order and therefore it should be done in a fast and sufficient way. We have found the Distance Matrix API about a year ago and without any hesitation it is the best API of that kind in the market. The main reason is that it provides simple documentation that saves a lot of time in process of integration, a clear interface of the profile, where you can find the number of requests you have already spent.

While using the Distance Matrix API we have solved a large number of problems. Firstly, it helped us to find out how to find a sufficient route from the user location to the sewage treatment plant to reduce the cost of the order. And, secondly, it also provided us with the opportunity to effectively schedule a work of tunk trucks, which have reduced fuel consumption in a strong way.

"The Distance Matrix API helped us to solve a lot of significant problems, which are dedicated to our specific sphere. If you are looking for friendly support, perfectly understandable documentation, stable and fast API, the Distance Matrix API is your choice. We will continue to cooperate with them without fail to reach new tops in our business sphere."
