In this episode of ONYX PRO, we show a real comparison between a planner’s decisions and artificial intelligence.
The same set of orders, the same vehicles - but a completely different result.
See how AI can find a solution in seconds that wouldn’t even cross a human’s mind.

The material shows a practical comparison of two planning methods on the same set of orders and vehicles: manually by a planner and automatically by AI. The key difference lies in the quality of decisions and the time taken to make them.
AI simultaneously analyzes multiple combinations that a human cannot calculate in a few seconds. As a result, it finds an arrangement that minimizes empty runs and improves fleet utilization much faster.
No. The message points toward supporting human decisions rather than eliminating them. The planner maintains operational control, while AI shortens analysis time and suggests the best scenarios.
The most useful are: the percentage of empty kilometers, punctuality, number of orders per vehicle, route margin, and the time needed to create the plan. These indicators most clearly show whether AI provides real business value.
Primarily for transport company owners, dispatchers, and forwarders who want to check if automation will actually improve the financial result. It is a good starting point before deciding to implement AI tools.
