Whether you are planning a weekend getaway or managing a daily commute, getting from A to B should be the easy part. But as any road-tripper knows, the "quickest" route isn't always the most efficient, and fuel costs can be a total mystery until you are standing at the petrol pump.
That is why I built RoutePlanner—a precision route management tool designed to give you total control over your journey.
Why RoutePlanner?
Most mapping apps focus on just getting you there. RoutePlanner focuses on the cost and convenience of the entire trip. By combining OpenStreetMap data with custom vehicle profiles, it provides a level of insight that standard GPS apps often miss.
đźš— Smart Vehicle Profiles
Stop guessing how much a trip will cost. In RoutePlanner, you can save your specific vehicle’s details—make, model, fuel type, and efficiency (MPG or L/100km).
When you plan a route, the app calculates your estimated fuel consumption and trip cost based on current fuel prices. It is "Financial GPS" for your car.
đź“Ť Your Personal Waypoint Library
Tired of typing in the same addresses over and over? RoutePlanner lets you save your most-visited locations—friends’ houses, favourite hiking spots, or client offices—as custom waypoints. Just click "Add Waypoint", select from your saved list, and your route updates instantly.
🚲 Multi-Modal Flexibility
Not everyone is driving. Whether you are walking through the city, cycling through the park, or driving across the country, RoutePlanner adjusts its routing logic to find the best path for your mode of transport.
đź”— Seamless Sharing & Export
Planning a group trip? Generate a public share link so everyone can see the itinerary, total distance, and estimated time. And if you need turn-by-turn navigation on the go, one click exports your entire journey directly to Google Maps.
Tech Stack Highlights
