How much does dispatch software cost?

At Maxmove, dispatch is part of the TMS: small teams start for free, and paid plans are billed by shipment volume – not per dispatcher seat. Traditional dispatch programs usually license per user.

Does the AI replace the dispatcher?

No. The AI takes over sorting, prioritising, and suggesting – the decision stays with the dispatcher, and every assignment is explicitly approved. Dispatch gets faster without giving up control. Read more on our AI dispatch page.

What's the difference between dispatch and route planning?

Route planning calculates the optimal stop order; dispatch decides which driver and vehicle take which order. In Maxmove they interlock: optimisation plans, the dispatcher assigns.

How do orders get into dispatch?

Via web entry, your booking page, email order intake, shop integrations, or the API. Every channel lands on the same dispatch board – no retyping.

From how many vehicles does dispatch software pay off?

From three to five vehicles, phone dispatch and paper notes already cost more than a system. Since Maxmove starts free, there's no lower limit – even two-vehicle operations dispatch cleanly with it.

Can I dispatch on the go?

Yes. The dispatch board runs in the browser on desktop, tablet, and smartphone – assignments, re-planning, and status checks work from anywhere.

Driver assignment in the Maxmove dispatch board

What is dispatch software?

Dispatch software helps dispatchers distribute transport orders across drivers and vehicles. Instead of shouting across the office, phone calls, and spreadsheets, it shows live which driver is available, where they are, and which vehicle fits the order – and records every decision traceably.

Maxmove takes dispatch a step further: the board shows orders, drivers, and vehicles on a live map, and the AI dispatch assistant prioritises urgent orders and suggests suitable drivers – you approve. The assignment lands in the driver app instantly, and status flows back automatically.
