Routing24 – Free route optimization in the browser
Hi HN! I built Routing24 to make route optimization easier and accessible for small businesses and solo drivers. With Google Maps, you can plan routes between a few locations for free, but it doesn’t support efficient multi-stop planning, handling multiple vehicles, or adding specific business rules like delivery time windows. Many tools offer route optimization for around $30 per vehicle per month, but Routing24 provides it completely free. Optimization happens fully on the client-side, using your device’s resources instead of cloud servers. The interface is simple for now: you can…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi HN! I built Routing24 to make route optimization easier and accessible for small businesses and solo drivers. With Google Maps, you can plan routes between a few locations for free, but it doesn’t support efficient multi-stop planning, handling multiple vehicles, or adding specific business rules like delivery time windows. Many tools offer route optimization for around $30 per vehicle per month, but Routing24 provides it completely free. Optimization happens fully on the client-side, using your device’s resources instead of cloud servers. The interface is simple for now: you can import/export using Excel, and there’s a web UI to edit and view imported data and optimized routes. Data is saved or uploaded anywhere, and one browser tab runs one optimization. Map data comes from OpenStreetMap, and the solver is built in C++/WASM, using public domain algorithms. I’d love to hear any feedback as I keep developing it. Thanks, and I hope it’s useful!

I've been building https://routing24.com for a while, a free route optimization and planning app for businesses. One of the things that bothered me for quite a time is inability of browser agents to work with Routing24. We have tons of natural tasks for AI: - data ingestion, to figure out data coming from user's side (csv and Excel); - geocoding quality validation (to explain user what they need to correct and their addresses and how); - steep learning curve for business users (who have sense of what they want from route optimization, but setting up the model takes significant time…

- SHSelf-Hosted Maps Stack2022 · maps.ellenhp.me · ▲213
Over the past week I built a project to let people self-host an entire maps stack so they don't have to send data to the big G. Right now it includes a base map, geocoder and directions server. Currently only bicycle directions are supported, and I'm only hosting tiles for Seattle because I'm unemployed and can't afford to host data for the whole planet. Check it out! https://maps.ellenhp.me/ https://github.com/ellenhp/headway Ultimately I'd like to really focus on transit routing (not implemented) but I'll probably throw a driving mode in there too.
- BRBike route planner that follows almost only official bike trails2024 · trailimap.com · ▲279
Hey guys, I built a route planner that is mostly focused on bike touring and using existing bike infrastructure. For each request you're shown what bike tracks/trails your route uses and can further explore them by showing them on map or going to the official trail route. The main idea for the app is to have a friendly and easy to use planner that would make heavy use of official bike trails data (mainly from OpenStreetMap) and make it easy to plan a longer trip using the best possible bike routes out there. Currently the app only works for the Euro region but I'm planning to add North…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
