Where each tool wins
An honest look at what each platform does best.
Where Drivant wins
- Tier-based pricing with included seats — not per-driver from day one. Standard $29/mo includes 5 drivers; Pro $79/mo includes 25 drivers; Teams $149/mo includes 50 drivers.
- Free-forever plan with 100 stops, 3 routes, CSV export, and the branded driver PWA. No credit card required.
- Native desktop app for macOS and Windows that works offline with local .dvnt files.
- White-label driver app at every tier — your logo, app name, theme, and subdomain at no extra cost from the Free tier.
- HERE truck routing with vehicle dimensions, weight, and hazmat restrictions on Pro.
- Multiple export formats: CSV, Excel, GPX, KML, GeoJSON, and the encrypted .dvnt binary format.
- AES-256-GCM encryption on .dvnt exports for sensitive delivery manifests.
Where Routific wins
- Continuous real-time GPS tracking out of the box on every plan, where Drivant currently does on-demand per-trip tracking only.
- Customer-facing delivery tracker links and email ETA notifications included in every plan; SMS notifications available as a paid add-on.
- Public Routing Engine API for embedding Routific's optimizer into another product or workflow. Drivant's public API is on the roadmap, not shipped.
- Unlimited drivers and dispatchers on all plans, including the free tier, billed by delivery-order volume rather than seat count.
- Longer track record as a dedicated route-optimization platform — 1,000+ delivery businesses across food, furniture, parcel, meal, grocery, and reverse-logistics verticals.
Which tool is right for you?
The right choice depends on your team size, budget, and whether you need driver-side features.
Choose Drivant if you need:
Route planning plus a branded driver companion app, with per-seat pricing (not per-driver). A desktop app that works offline, truck routing with vehicle profiles, multiple export formats, and Signal Dispatch — a driver companion layer that slots alongside your existing ops stack rather than replacing it. Free tier to start, $29/mo to grow, free white-label on every plan.
Choose Routific if you need:
Continuous real-time GPS tracking, customer-facing delivery tracker links, and email ETA notifications out of the box on every plan. Per-order pricing rather than per-seat — useful when your operation has many drivers but variable order volume. A public Routing Engine API for embedding optimization in another product. Pricing starts at $150/mo for 101–1,000 orders and scales by volume to ~$0.03/order at high volume.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about Drivant for teams comparing route-planning tools.
How does Drivant pricing compare to Routific?
Routific bills per delivery order: their Free plan covers 100 orders/month, then $150/mo flat for 101–1,000 orders, with volume discounts from $0.15/order (1,001–2,000) down to $0.03/order (20,001–50,000) and custom pricing above that.
Drivant bills per tier with included seats: Free forever, Standard $29/mo, Pro $79/mo, Teams $149/mo. Drivant's pricing is volume-independent — running 5,000 orders through Pro costs $79/mo; the equivalent run through Routific is roughly $0.10/order × 5,000 = $500/mo.
How does Drivant pricing work?
Drivant uses tier-based pricing with included seats: Free (forever, 100 stops, 3 routes, 1 project), Standard ($29/mo, 150 stops per route, 15 routes, 5 drivers, 1 dispatcher, Route Builder), Pro ($79/mo, unlimited stops and routes, 25 drivers, 3 dispatchers, all routing providers, all export formats), Teams ($149/mo, 50 drivers, 5 dispatchers, 5 editors, 10 viewers).
Per-seat overage applies if your team grows past the included count: $12 per additional driver, $19 per dispatcher, $29 per editor, $9 per viewer. You're not billed per-driver from day one.
Does Drivant have a mobile driver app?
Yes. Drivant Signal Dispatch includes a branded driver PWA (progressive web app) that installs from a URL in about 10 seconds — no App Store download, no forced updates, and it works offline. It supports passkey sign-in (Face ID / Touch ID), photo and signature proof of delivery, on-demand driver location tracking, and navigation handoff to Google Maps, Apple Maps, or Waze.
Every Drivant customer gets the driver app with their own branding (logo, icon, app name, theme) at no extra cost, starting from the Free tier.
How many stops can Drivant handle?
Drivant Free supports 100 stops per route across 3 routes. Standard supports 150 stops per route with 15 routes. Pro and Teams support unlimited stops and routes. Imports from Excel, CSV, GPX, KML, and GeoJSON are accepted on every tier.
Does Drivant offer route optimization?
Yes. The Route Builder (Standard and above) uses geographic clustering and sequence optimization to arrange stops efficiently. Pro adds a schedule optimizer with time windows and service time support. Pro also includes HERE truck routing with vehicle dimensions, weight restrictions, and hazmat avoidance.
Can I import data from Routific into Drivant?
Yes — if you can extract your stop data from Routific as CSV or Excel (e.g. via the dispatcher dashboard or the Routing Engine API), Drivant can import it. The import wizard auto-detects address columns, customer names, phone numbers, time windows, and other fields. Drivant also accepts GPX, KML, and GeoJSON. Most teams migrate by exporting their stop list from their current tool to a spreadsheet, then dropping it into Drivant's import wizard.
Does Drivant have a free plan?
Yes. Drivant has a free-forever plan with 100 stops per route, 3 routes, 1 project, OSRM driving directions, CSV and .dvnt export, and the full desktop app. No credit card required to start. The free plan also includes the branded driver PWA and on-demand location tracking.
Why might teams switch from Routific to Drivant?
Three structural differences. Pricing model: Routific bills per delivery order, so a 5,000-order month at the published $0.10/order tier is roughly $500; Drivant Pro is $79/mo flat regardless of volume. Teams running high-order operations can save substantially on the Drivant flat-rate tier; teams with low order volume but many drivers benefit from Drivant's tier-based seats over Routific's order-counted model.
White-label driver app: Every Drivant tier — including Free — ships with a branded driver PWA carrying your logo, app name, theme color, and subdomain at no extra cost. Routific's driver app is unbranded.
Desktop + offline: Drivant offers a native macOS and Windows desktop app that works offline with local .dvnt files and AES-256-GCM encryption for sensitive delivery manifests. Routific is a web-only platform.
