The concept of developing an AI virtual assistant that can autonomously and efficiently manage logistics operations is transforming into reality. SimpliRoute—an IT-based start-up, which is focused onimproving the route selection of order dispatching trucks. The issue, according to the CEO and Co-founder of the start-up, Álvaro Echeverria, was that no default software has been developed yet, which can evaluate the real-time condition of the route. The drivers are unaware of the actual condition of a road;for instance, whethera road is in poor condition, too narrow for a truck to pass through, or risky to travel through.
The statement released by Mr. Echeverria indicates that artificial intelligence is ought to be at the heart of the logistic operation and would becapable enough to learn from the route being followed by the logistic vehicles. After more than a year of development, the first AI virtual assistant, named ADA, has been independently developed and unifiedwith a logistics platform like the exclusive Siri is linked to Apple smartphones.
ADA has been completely integrated into SimpliRoute with the objective of sending alerts and notifications to the logistics drivers linked with the platform. The tool also collects data for optimizing routes, thereby rescheduling future actions.On the basis of prior route performance, the AI tool can recommend driversto utilize a specific vehicle for delivering packages in a certain area or assist the logistic company to opt for fleet size based on historical utilization.
Echeverria stated that the current milestone of the start-up is to be at the cutting-edge of technology that can be accomplished by constantly integrating artificial intelligence with machine learning technology. In the latest version of the app, the AI is already interacting with the drivers by regularly sending alerts and operating in the background.
