What is Upper?

Upper Route Planner is an operating system for route planning, dispatch, delivery management, customer notifications, and fleet operations. It is built for businesses that depend on profitable, on-time routes, including waste hauling companies, medical couriers, distributors, caterers, field service teams, parts suppliers, HVAC companies, pool service teams, and other mobile operations. The platform unifies route optimization, dispatch, driver apps, live tracking, proof of delivery, customer communication, analytics, integrations, and fleet management in one connected workspace. Upper Crew acts as the core operating platform for teams with multiple vehicles, helping dispatchers plan routes, assign stops, manage drivers, capture PODs, and monitor performance. Its Customer Notifications Suite provides branded tracking pages, live ETAs, geofencing, SMS, email, WhatsApp alerts, delivery confirmations, white-label portals, and multilingual customer communication. AI Dispatcher learns from operational patterns and helps automate stop sequencing, real-time re-optimization, driver-skill matching, service-time estimation, vehicle capacity logic, and workload balancing. Upper Fleet connects vehicle records, fuel cards, maintenance schedules, DVIR inspections, telematics, and route-linked reporting so teams can understand vehicle costs in the context of the routes they serve. The platform also supports integrations with tools such as Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, QuickBooks, Monday.com, Zapier, Google Sheets, and other business systems. Teams can use plain-language rules such as time windows, vehicle capacity, service territories, driver skills, and workload constraints to help Upper generate more practical daily routes. Its driver mobile app helps drivers follow optimized routes, navigate stops, complete deliveries, capture proof, scan barcodes, and share updates from the field.
