MVP Development
for Logistics.
You're managing freight, dispatch, or last-mile delivery through spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups. You tried building a platform with a no-code tool. Real-time GPS didn't work. The driver app crashed. Sound familiar?
saro builds MVP development for logistics startups including fleet tracking dashboards, route optimization engines, driver apps, dispatch systems, and supply chain visibility tools. We ship in 8 weeks. Fixed price. Your operations team can use it on day one.

Logistics software requires real-time data, complex routing logic, and mobile-first driver experiences. Generic app builders aren't built for this. We are.
Fleet Tracking Dashboards
Real-time GPS tracking for vehicles, drivers, and assets. Built on Google Maps Platform or HERE Maps with sub-5-second location updates and geofencing alerts.
Dispatch & Load Management
Load board, driver assignment, status tracking, and proof-of-delivery capture. Reduces dispatcher call volume by 40% by giving drivers a self-service app.
Route Optimization Engines
Multi-stop route optimization using Google OR-Tools or custom algorithms. Cuts fuel costs by 15–25% by eliminating inefficient routes your drivers currently plan manually.
Supply Chain Visibility
Multi-carrier tracking aggregated into a single dashboard. Your ops team stops logging into 6 different carrier portals. Every shipment in one place.
Driver Mobile Apps
iOS and Android driver apps with offline capability, turn-by-turn navigation, signature capture, and photo proof of delivery. Works in areas with poor cell signal.
Warehouse & Inventory Tools
Barcode scanning, inventory counts, receiving workflows, and pick-pack-ship processes. Connects to your existing WMS or replaces spreadsheets entirely.
How saro Ships Your Logistics MVP.
Operations Audit
We map your current dispatch and tracking workflows, even if they're all in WhatsApp and spreadsheets. We identify the 3 biggest bottlenecks and scope those first.
Tech Stack Decision
We choose the right real-time infrastructure, such as WebSockets for live tracking, the right maps API for your geography, and a mobile framework for your driver app.
Build Sprints
Two-week sprints. You see working, testable software every 14 days. Your dispatchers test it with real loads before we move to the next sprint.
Launch & Handover
We deploy, train your team, hand over the codebase, and stay on for 30 days of support. Your ops team is self-sufficient from day one.
Is This You?
Dispatch Platform: Saved 35% Driver Idle Time
A last-mile delivery startup came to saro managing 40 drivers on WhatsApp. We built a dispatch dashboard with real-time GPS tracking and a driver app in 8 weeks. Dispatcher time per load dropped from 8 minutes to under 2 minutes. Driver idle time fell 35% in the first month.
View Case StudiesCommon Questions.
Can you build a driver mobile app as part of the MVP?
Yes. We build iOS and Android driver apps with offline capability as part of logistics MVPs. The driver app, dispatcher dashboard, and tracking portal are all delivered together.
How does real-time GPS tracking work in the app?
We use WebSocket connections with the driver's phone GPS broadcasting location every 3–5 seconds to the dispatcher dashboard. We build on Google Maps Platform or HERE Maps depending on your geography.
Can you integrate with our existing TMS or ERP?
Yes. If it has an API, we can connect to it. We've integrated with McLeod, TMW, Oracle, SAP, and custom-built ERPs. Integration scope is assessed in the initial audit.
How long does a logistics MVP take to build?
8 weeks for a focused logistics MVP featuring a dispatcher dashboard, driver app, and real-time tracking. Multi-carrier integrations or warehouse management modules add 2–4 weeks.
