Routefit
Tomorrow's route, tonight
Problem
A five-van operation plans tomorrow by dragging stops around a map for an hour, badly. The drivers know the plan is wrong and fix it themselves in the cab, which means nobody knows where anyone will be and the customer promise is fiction.
Why now
Routing engines that once needed a licence and a server are now available as open libraries and cheap APIs, so the maths stopped being the barrier for a five-van fleet.
Solution
Stops in, route out, honouring the constraints that actually bind: time windows, vehicle capacity, which driver knows which area, who finishes at three for the school run. Send it to the drivers and give the customer a window that is true.
Who it is for
A small fleet doing scheduled drops or service calls and planning by hand today. Tomorrow gets built by dragging stops around a map for an hour, badly, and the drivers quietly fix it themselves in the cab. That means nobody knows where anyone will be, so the window promised to the customer is fiction from the moment it is given.
What you could earn from Routefit
Say you build Routefit and charge your own customers $35 a month, the price the score suggests. The numbers below are the revenue that would come from them. This is money you earn, never a fee you pay UpgradIQ, and we never take a cut. It is arithmetic off the price, not a promise the customers arrive on their own.

Your build kit for Routefit
Start the build and the kit opens two steps in, then drip-feeds the rest one phase at a time. Every phase is a copy-paste prompt for your agent with its own verification before the next unlocks, so Routefit moves from an empty folder to a running MVP without you ever holding the whole plan in your head.
Progress saves across every device, and the workspace always reopens on the exact step you left, so a build that runs over several weeks survives them instead of dying in a browser tab you eventually close.
How you actually build it
Connect your coding agent once. It pulls the current phase straight from your kit over MCP: the exact prompt, the outcome to aim for, and the check to run before it moves on. You review and ship, it does the typing.
No copy-paste juggling, no thread to lose. The kit stays the single source of truth, and your agent works through it one phase at a time, verifying its own work at each step before the next phase is unlocked.
Take the context file, free
This is the AGENTS.md that keeps your coding agent on scope for the entire build: what Routefit is, who it is for, the stack, the non-goals, and the rules it must follow. Copy it into your project now, no account needed, and your agent is briefed before you write a line.

This product exists to do one thing well. Every extra feature is a reason it does not ship. ## Rules for the agent - Build one phase at a time. Do not run ahead into later phases. - Validate input at every boundary where data enters. - Never put a permission or plan check in client code. - Ask before adding a dependency that a few lines would cover. - If something is ambiguous, say so rather than inventing a requirement. --- Context file from UpgradIQ · idea routefit · prompts kit-v4

The path to a running MVP
Foundation
Scaffold the stack, then wire the data model and sign-in. It is the skeleton Routefit stands on, and it goes up in an evening rather than a lost week of config.
The product
Build the core feature end to end, then wire how it charges. This is where Routefit finally turns into something that a stranger will actually pay you for.
Ship it
Test and harden, deploy it live, then open the launch-day toolkit that lands the first ten users who prove it.
Is Routefit for you?
- You want revenue reasonably soon, not a science project
- You can give it evenings and a couple of weekends
- You can reach Small delivery and service fleets
- You are not ready to talk to a first real customer
- You want it fully passive, with zero maintenance
- You expect it to find its own customers without you

What is free here, and what Pro unlocks
Frequently asked
Is Routefit actually validated?
It scored UIQ 79 with a GO verdict, weighed across eight sub-scores on the same rubric as every idea. GO means 75 and above, so demand and buildability were judged, not guessed.
What stack does it use?
Routefit is built on Next.js + Postgres, chosen because a coding agent can carry most of it. You are not fighting infrastructure, you are shipping the feature that matters.
How long to a running MVP?
The kit is ten phases, drip-fed one at a time so you always know the single next step. An evening and a weekend for the lighter builds, a few focused weeks for the deeper ones.
What does the $35 a month mean?
It is the price the model suggests Routefit could charge its own customers, not a fee to us. It is here so the money question is answered before you build, not after.
Which agent do I need?
Any capable coding agent: Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, or Bolt. Every phase is a copy-paste prompt with its own check, so the agent does the typing and you keep the judgement.
What is free versus Pro?
The whole case above is free: the problem, timing, solution, buyer, and the full score. Pro adds how it makes money, the one risk that could kill it, and the full kit that carries Routefit from an empty folder to a running MVP.
