Dayjob provides AI scheduling tailored for waste management, specifically skip hire, by integrating with existing booking and ERP systems to optimize route planning and driver assignments. It emphasizes revenue uplift, reduced admin time, and improved on-time performance through an AI scheduling agent designed for the waste industry.

Dayjob plugs into a user's job booking system and telematics, then automatically schedules routes for the next day by considering travel times, skip sizes, and driver schedules. It adapts in real-time to changes during the day, tracks driver performance, and offers views to plan smarter and prioritize work based on distance, customer, or timeslots. It supports ERP integrations with Weighsoft, PurGo, and Wastelogics, with bespoke reports for other ERPs, and provides setup typically within a day accompanied by dedicated support. The platform emphasizes a mobile-desktop workflow oriented toward planners and includes an in-day planner for reallocations and rerouting as needed.
