How smart routing cuts your commute time by up to 30%

The shortest line isn’t the quickest ride

Car navigation optimises for roads. Bike navigation has to optimise for effort, safety and flow. A slightly longer route along a protected lane with fewer stops will almost always beat the “direct” path through stop-start traffic.

• Elevation-aware routing keeps you off needless climbs
• Signal timing avoids the junctions that eat your momentum
• Bike-lane preference trades a few hundred metres for a calmer, faster ride

Stack those small wins across a daily commute and the difference is real — riders on REVALT routes consistently report 20–30% shorter journeys than their old map-app path.
