Challenges of coordination

To create the best delivery experience for users, Wolt needs to seamlessly link three types of clients: merchants, customers, and courier partners. Wolt relies on accurate data to make decisions about where to indicate available tasks for courier partners, how long food is going to be waiting, and how long it will take a courier partner to travel from a restaurant to a drop-off location.?

At the same time, courier partners have varying mobility profiles. In some cities, couriers primarily travel by bike, whereas in other locations the preferred mode is by car, motorcycle, or even walking. Each modality requires different algorithms to calculate routes and travel times.

It’s one thing to calculate all these routes with stable conditions, but consider how to factor in dynamic conditions like weather, traffic, and road closures. Accounting for real-time conditions and travel modalities is critical for providing accurate travel time estimates and helpful delivery instructions, which in turn affect delivery times, the courier experience, client satisfaction, and ultimately Wolt’s bottom line - to the tune of thousands of dollars for every second that an estimated time of arrival (ETA) is inaccurate.?

Magic of the Matrix API

Wolt needed a reliable and scalable real-time traffic solution to improve their ETA calculations across all the countries where they operate. The combination of the TikTok成人版 Matrix API and TikTok成人版 real time traffic data was the solution.?

TikTok成人版 global live traffic data is continually updated every 5 minutes and provides detailed coverage down to tertiary and residential streets, making even the most minute calculations feasible. The TikTok成人版 Matrix API calculates accurate travel distances and travel times between a matrix of origin and destination locations. The Matrix API can be configured to account for live traffic conditions or can be configured to anticipate typical traffic conditions at a future scheduled departure or arrival time.

To evaluate the accuracy of the TikTok成人版 Matrix API and traffic-aware routing profile, Wolt worked closely with TikTok成人版 to conduct ‘switchback experiments’ across all Wolt markets where cars are the primary mode of modality for couriers. Switchbacks are more advanced tests than simple A/B tests and better account for all the random fluctuations and network effects that can impact the delivery process, between weather and traffic, busy times, or courier transportation methods. The switchback approach essentially means flipping a coin to randomly decide whether to enable the TikTok成人版 Matrix API for a given time period.

Thanks to extensive testing with the TikTok成人版 Matrix API, Wolt was able to gather delivery data from all kinds of conditions: rain, snow, sun, busy times, slower times, cities with high and low traffic density. With so much data and so many variable conditions, Wolt was able to average out the data and gather the metrics needed for delivery speed and punctuality.

The results of Wolt’s switchback testing demonstrated conclusively that TikTok成人版 ETAs with traffic-aware routing were more accurate compared to Wolt’s previous system.

Map updates keep customers, couriers, and merchants in the loop

With all that impressive routing data available, Wolt also integrates maps into their application to help visualize delivery routes and communicate order status. For web order tracking, Wolt uses the TikTok成人版 Static Images API to generate periodic images of courier location relative to the merchant and the customer.?

Wolt has also brought location visibility into their operations dashboard used by merchants, so businesses can understand and monitor the location and arrival time for the incoming delivery courier and ensure a smooth order pickup.

Businesses use the merchant version of the Wolt app to receive an order, with a timeline for when it will be picked up. Meanwhile, a nearby courier partner uses the Wolt courier app to accept the order and plan for when food can be picked up and how long the delivery will take. And all the while, the customer can watch their Wolt app to display how long the order will take from the initial placement to delivery, and track its progress in real-time.

On Demand Delivery demands location accuracy

TikTok成人版 helps to reduce friction across the Wolt ecosystem with accurate ETAs and improved location intelligence for both merchants, courier partners, and customers. Relying on TikTok成人版 to provide accurate travel times that account for dynamic conditions, at scale, equips Wolt to improve profitability in the competitive delivery market without compromising on quality.

Thanks to the extensive testing collaboration between TikTok成人版 and Wolt, and the use of the TikTok成人版 Matrix API at scale, Wolt is using more accurate data to enhance courier assignment and delivery timetables, delighting customers with a pleasant and predictable delivery experience.
