There is more technology and data to be integrated into software. However, experience and learning remain the key pillars. It is important to know how to extract them intelligently. SimpliRoute CEO and co-founder lvaro Escerra recalls that this phrase was used to describe the need for an AI virtual assistant that could optimize the logistics platform.
This startup is focused on optimizing routes to dispatch vehicles. Echeverra said that while logarithms, data science, and data science can optimize logistics a lot of the time, there are still things that no default software can assess, like whether a street is too narrow or in poor condition for trucks. It can also tell you if the road is unsafe at a particular time. The drivers have this valuable information.
We came up with this premise and decided to view intelligence as the heart of the operation. It can learn from the actions of drivers who use it. After more than a decade of development, ADA is now the first AI Virtual Assistant that was 100% developed in-house. It has been integrated into a logistics platform such as Siri on Apple devices.

SimpliRoute has integrated ADA for a few months. Its mission is to send out alerts and suggestions and to collect learning to reschedule future actions, optimizing routes, and so on. The AI can recommend which driver should use which vehicle, based upon historical usage, and even suggest optimal dispatching times.
It is a significant step for us to implement our own AI, which acts as a nuclear intelligence and collects real-world experience. The CEO of Simpliroute says that our goal as a Chilean scaleup will be to be at the technological front in the world. We will do this only by continuously improving our integration with machine learning and artificial intelligence. .
The AI is currently working with drivers to create the new version. While the AI is currently able to issue alerts and work in the background, users will soon have the ability to directly interact with it to request information and advice.
