Straightaway is a mobile app for planning and optimizing multi-stop delivery routes, with turn-by-turn navigation built in. Drivers can enter addresses manually or use the camera to scan a manifest, package label, or Excel sheet; that camera workflow can add up to 500 addresses. The route optimizer considers traffic patterns, weather, elevation, road conditions, construction, and 130 other data sources in real time. A birds-eye view shows the driver's location and upcoming stops in the area. Straightaway is available on Android and iOS, with use cases including food delivery, cable and telecom, retail routes, pest control, junk removal, real estate, home healthcare, local delivery, and field sales. The free Starter plan allows up to 25 stops. Personal plans allow up to 250 stops: $9.99 a month or $95.99 a year, listed as $7.99 a month. Team pricing is custom and its plan lists vehicle tracking, unlimited routes, a team discount, and enterprise support. The app may receive precise real-time location, route information, delivery photos, and notes; Straightaway says it does not sell personal data.
