Satalia middle mile delivery

AI that makes your network move faster, smarter, and greener.

Middle mile is where supply chain inefficiencies accumulate. But with Satalia’s AI, you can turn middle-mile logistics from a hidden cost to a competitive advantage.

Satalia Middle Mile AI makes your inter-depot or store or site logistics run like clockwork—cutting miles, emissions, and costs without missing a beat. It analyses millions of routing options in seconds, finding the smartest way to move goods between sites while factoring in every real-world detail: from truck sizes and driver hours, to loading times and delivery curfews.

We start with your specific key metrics and build around them from our leading-edge algorithms—all finely tuned for the unique demands of your exact inter-depot logistics.

Optimise the middle mile, strengthen the bottom line, delight the end customer.

Your priorities.
Our algorithms.
Smoother, smarter logistics.

Satalia Middle Mile uses advanced AI to continuously optimise how, when, and where your vehicles move: reducing cost, waste, and emissions while improving predictability across your middle mile ops.

It models the full complexity of real-world logistics in a way legacy software and spreadsheets can’t: vehicle types, depot/store opening hours, driver shifts and working regulations, cross-docking or store delivery windows, load compatibility and consolidation rules, backhaul optimisation and environmental constraints.

It understands the full effect all of these factors have on each other, continually optimising and learning so you can consistently move more goods with fewer miles. And when your middle mile runs smoother, stores stay stocked, margins stay healthy, and customers stay happy.

Our tech was born in academia, raised in the real world of retail delivery, and proven with well-known clients. It integrates with your existing stack, so you’ll get the benefit of proven, repeatable assets configured to hit your unique objectives—plus expert support at every step.

The outcome?

  • Fewer empty miles and reduced emissions
  • Reduced dwell time at depots and improved dock scheduling
  • Lower transport costs and better asset utilisation
  • Reliable depot/ store replenishments
  • Less manual planning and lower operational risk
  • Scalable, sustainable logistics that evolve with your business
  • Improved network resilience able to better handle disruptions
  • Stronger bottom line
  • All delivered through a secure, cloud-based platform that scales effortlessly with your operation.

Dynamic schedule and load optimisation

AI continuously re-optimises inter-depot/ store routes and schedules as loads, constraints, or traffic change, maximising consolidation fleet utilisation and minimising empty legs.

Real-world constraints

Accounts for vehicle type, capacity, driver hours and work regulations, loading and consolidation rules, regional restrictions, and store access windows—ensuring plans reflect the real world, not a spreadsheet ideal.

Territory management

Set geographic rules or delivery zones to balance workloads between regions, optimize networks and avoid congestion restrictions.

Route accuracy

Models truck-specific travel times and restrictions (low bridges, weight limits, access zones) to deliver reliable turn-by-turn navigation instructions and ETAs every time.

Shift pattern optimisation

Aligns driver schedules with transport demand and work regulations, reducing overtime, stress, and turnover, ensuring 100% compliance.

Sustainability optimisation

Minimises fuel usage and emissions through route consolidation, backhaul matching and efficient sequencing.

Scenario planning

“What-if” analysis for network changes, network flow optimization.

Real-time visibility and electronic POD

Live tracking of vehicles to find the exact location of each shipment at any time. Record the proof of deliveries electronically for increased transparency and accountability.

Seamless integration

Easily connects to existing ERP, TMS, WMS, dock scheduling/ yard management systems andor to Satalia Driver App for full visibility from planning through execution.

Trusted by leading names

Satalia’s middle mile AI solutions are built from a proven library of algorithms, assembled around your KPIs—not ours.

We combine the flexibility of custom software with the reliability of enterprise-grade platforms, already trusted by major UK retailers.
