Delivery Route Income Predictor

A pre-trip planning tool for gig economy drivers (or small fleets) that uses historical data and current trip variables to accurately estimate the final income/profitability of a specific delivery route.

🎯The Problem

Drivers often accept routes based on vague upfront estimates, leading to low profitability after accounting for time, gas, and tolls.

💡The Solution

An ML model that analyzes route length, time of day, estimated waiting time, and historical payment data to provide a precise, personalized net income prediction before acceptance.
