Jess is RouteNio's AI-powered operations manager. With 64 tools, Jess can create jobs, dispatch drivers, run payroll, generate reports, send emails, and proactively alert you to issues - all through natural language conversation.
The Four Phases
| Phase | Capability | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 - Read | Query data and provide insights | "Show me all overdue invoices", "Revenue for Q4?" |
| Phase 2 - Create | Create records with your confirmation | "Create a job for Client ABC, Sydney to Melbourne" |
| Phase 3 - Workflows | Chain multiple actions in sequence | "Create job, assign Driver John + Truck T-101, send notification" |
| Phase 4 - Proactive | Analyse data and suggest optimisations | "3 operators have 20+ overtime hours - redistribute shifts?" |
All actions go through a Confirmation Card - Jess shows you exactly what it will do and waits for your approval before executing. You can edit or cancel at any point.
