About RouteRelay

RouteRelay is a UK vehicle logistics platform built by people who understand software, vehicle logistics and the motor trade. It exists because moving vehicles between dealers, auctions and customers still mostly runs on phone calls, hope and arguments about scratches — and every one of those has a software-shaped fix.

Why RouteRelay exists

The trade moves vehicles constantly, and the tooling has not kept up. Quote sites turned it into a bidding race that punishes careful drivers; informal arrangements left dealers with no evidence when something went wrong. RouteRelay replaces both with a controlled network: fixed prices, vetted participants, mandatory proof and a record of every movement.

What we build around

  • Fixed-price movements — the price is the price, for dealers and for drivers.
  • A vetted network — dealers, fleets and drivers are approved by a person, with documents checked.
  • Proof-led movements — photo evidence at collection and delivery on every job.
  • Visible progress — tracked statuses instead of phone chases.
  • Admin oversight — disputes and exceptions handled by people, on the record.

What RouteRelay is not

  • Not a quote or bidding site — no auctions, no undercutting, no quote spam.
  • Not a public job board — movements are visible inside the vetted network, not scraped or broadcast.
  • Not a generic courier platform — this is vehicle logistics for the motor trade, built around its realities.

Where the platform is heading

The direction of travel is more intelligence around the same controls: inspection and proof tooling that structures damage and condition evidence, and pricing intelligence that helps keep movements fairly priced for both sides. Advisory first, humans deciding — the same principle the platform already runs on.
