Road closures around the warehouse at pickup time
The way into the warehouse for afternoon pickups, when roads are closed.
What it does
Every weekday at 14:00: road closures and roadworks within 3 km of your warehouse, so couriers can be told the way in before afternoon pickups, sent on WhatsApp.
In one sentence: Mon–Fri at 14:00, in Warsaw, find road closures and roadworks, write a report with xMap AI, then send message in WhatsApp Business and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
A courier stuck in traffic misses the cut-off. A note before pickup keeps orders leaving on time.
Who it is for
E-commerce & D2C brands. Online stores and direct-to-consumer brands choosing pickup points, stockists, pop-ups and cities, and keeping deliveries on time. Every use case for e-commerce & d2c
Best use cases

The time it saves
Mon–Fri at 14:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 15 minutes each time; it runs about 22 times a month, so it saves about 6 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
