Rounds: your constraints respected, several options on the table

Putting a round together means making delivery windows, vehicle capacities, driving times and customer priorities all fit. Your agent assembles those constraints and proposes several possible arrangements, each with what it respects and what it leaves open. Hosted in France: your customer addresses and your load plans stay with you. The operations manager chooses the round.

Round planning · hosted in France
Put together tomorrow's rounds for three vehicles.
Three arrangements proposed, each respecting the windows quoted to customers and the capacity of each vehicle.
For each: what is covered, the order of the stops and the slack left between deliveries.
Two points are still to be settled: they are marked on each option.
🔗 Sourced · the day's orders, capacities and windows
What are those two points?
A very narrow window at one customer, and a bulky delivery that takes up a large share of one vehicle.
Both can be handled, but the order of priority between customers is yours: it bears on your service commitments.

✦ In brief

A Blue Lemon Agent logistics planning agent assembles your windows, capacities and priorities and proposes several round arrangements, each with what it covers and what it leaves to be settled. Choosing the round falls to operations. It runs on local inference or is hosted in France: customer addresses and load plans stay with you, architecture designed to reduce exposure to extraterritorial legislation, location alone not being enough to guarantee immunity.

The context

What does an AI agent bring to planning your rounds?

A well-built round shows across the whole day: less waiting, windows kept, drivers back on time.

! The issue

A round makes promised windows, vehicle capacities and road times fit together. Exploring several combinations by hand takes time, and you often stop at the first one that works. The agent proposes several, each documented, which gives operations a real choice rather than a single option.

Our answer

The operations manager compares complete arrangements and decides on what is their responsibility: the order of priority between customers, the service commitments, the acceptable load for a driver. Local inference or an isolated resource hosted in France: your customer addresses and your load plans, revealing of your activity, do not leave the company.

The decisive point

Your customer addresses and your load plans: sovereignty & compliance

Your customer addresses and your load plans say a great deal about your activity. Here is how the architecture of our agents protects them.

Local inference

The agent can run on a machine belonging to your organisation: no customer address and no load plan leaves the network.

Hosting in France

Otherwise, a dedicated and isolated resource hosted in France, under French law — your rounds and your delivery constraints: processing and access within the European Union targeted by the architecture.

Reduced extraterritorial exposure

For your customer addresses and your load plans, the architecture aims to reduce exposure to the Cloud Act and FISA 702; being located in France or in the European Union does not, on its own, guarantee immunity.

Isolated resource

No pooling: an environment strictly dedicated to your operation and its constraints.

Constraints respected and shown

Every proposal states the constraints it respects and the points left to be settled; encryption, role-based access and logging of every plan produced.

AI Act: governed deployment

The agent is strictly in support; no round is committed and no driver is assigned automatically; traceability and human oversight from end to end.

What depends on the architecture chosen These points are not general guarantees: they are settled deployment by deployment, in the quotation.

  • The applicable location is that of the architecture set out in the quotation and verified before commissioning.
  • Local execution is announced only for the configuration explicitly described and accepted in the quotation.
  • The applicable isolation depends on the deployment mode set out in the quotation; no dedicated isolation is presumed.
  • Roles and permissions are configured and accepted for the identities and systems actually connected.
  • The events logged, their content, their retention period and who may access them are defined for the deployment chosen.
For rounds carrying sensitive goods or serving sites with restricted access, SecNumCloud and reinforced hosting are options depending on your requirements. A single architecture is designed to answer both the GDPR and extraterritorial exposure. Designed for deployment in line with the GDPR and the AI Act, after the processing, roles and context-specific risks have been assessed.
Demonstration

See the agent at work

4 real situations, taken from those that come up most often. Pick one: the exchange unfolds as it would in your organisation.

A scripted demonstration. These exchanges show how the agent behaves — its sources, its refusals, what it leaves to your teams. Nothing is sent from this page, no model is queried here, and the matters named are fictional. That is precisely what we promise your data.
The behaviours shown here — monitoring, automation rules, routing and reminders — are configured with you during deployment, from your tools, your rules and your thresholds.
The architecture points named in these exchanges — location, local execution, isolation, encryption, role-based access, logging — are not a guarantee attached to the demonstration: they are those of the architecture set out in your quotation, and verified before commissioning.

Round planning · hosted in France
Four flags this morning on your rounds.
· The optimal plan loses forty minutes a day in the city centre. It does not count parking.
· Eleven proposed rounds exceeded the statutory driving times. I did not produce them.
· The two-hour window promised to customers is met in sixty-one per cent of cases.
· I am asked for a performance table per driver. I will not produce it. morning-watch_4-flags.pdf40 minutes lost a day · window met 61% of the time
⛓ Source · 1,240 rounds, position records, observed service times
How can an optimal plan lose time?
Because it optimises the route, and a round is not a route.
What the calculation assumes: that you arrive, you deliver, you leave. It counts kilometres and traffic. It counts neither parking, nor the walk to the door, nor waiting at the entryphone, nor the walk back to the vehicle.
What I measured: in the city centre, 7 minutes of parking on average — finding a space included — against 1 minute assumed by the calculation. Over a round of 22 urban stops the cumulative gap is 40 minutes a day.
What that produces: a plan "optimised by 12%" that nobody keeps to. The driver catches up by skipping their break, or the round finishes late — and the delay is put down to the round, never to the plan.
What I do: I use observed times, by zone and by address type, never theoretical ones. An address in a pedestrian zone, a building with no entry code, an industrial estate: three different times, measured here.
What that changes in the plan: it claims 4% gain instead of 12%. It is less flattering, and it is the only one that holds. 7-minutes-against-1_40-a-day.pdfA plan optimised by 12% that nobody keeps to
⛓ Source · 7 minutes parking against 1 assumed, 40 minutes' gap a day
How do you work, and where do you hand over?
I build rounds that hold, and I refuse to produce ones that do not.
What I take into account: service times observed by zone and address type, the windows promised to customers, statutory driving times and breaks, the vehicle's real capacity, and the driver's declared constraints — without knowing their reason.
Routing follows who can decide: a round that cannot be done in time is flagged before being proposed; a window that will not be met is flagged to customer service in the morning, not at the moment of failure; an address whose real time durably exceeds the estimate goes to whoever maintains the reference data; a round incident is logged without comment.
With a monthly summary: gaps between estimated and observed times by zone, windows met, rounds requiring an overrun, and addresses systematically underestimated.

Three guarantees. Every plan I propose fits within statutory driving times, including when I am asked for another — it is the driver who carries the responsibility for an overrun, never the plan that asked it of them, and a plan that holds is the only one that protects both. Location data serves the round: it feeds observed times by zone and address type, never a comparison between drivers. And every window announced is a window the plan can hold — a missed window costs more than a wide one, and the figure is in the third tab.
✎ Framework · no plan outside statutory times · no measurement of people
Local inference · no data outside the EU

Publishers' prices are published in US dollars: the amount re-invoiced is the amount in euros actually borne by Blue Lemon Agent on the publisher's invoice, at that invoice's exchange rate, with no commission or mark-up.
Included components and additional components Components included in the base offer: the Blue Lemon Agent software foundation, the AI models listed in the order journey, the standard channels (Microsoft Teams, Slack, WhatsApp Business, email, website chat, calendars, Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace, file storage, market VoIP telephony, professional social-media pages and accounts, Google Business Profile), hosting in France for the package chosen, backups, supervision, updates and support. If adapting the AI agent to your constraints, your needs or your requests requires other paid components — a third-party publisher's software licence, paid API access to one of your applications, hosting of health data, for which French law requires an HDS-certified host (art. L. 1111-8 of the French Public Health Code), SecNumCloud-qualified hosting, a speech synthesis service, particular hardware —, they are offered to you as an option or on quotation and re-invoiced at the cost incurred; nothing is committed without your written agreement. Where the artificial intelligence model you choose entails an additional cost, that cost is shown to you before you order and re-invoiced to you at the cost incurred, with no margin.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our answers

Does the agent launch the rounds?
No. It proposes several documented arrangements; choosing the one to use, and launching it, belong to operations.
What constraints can it take into account?
The windows quoted to customers, the capacities and characteristics of the vehicles, road times and the priorities you set. The set of constraints is settled at the design stage.
What does it do with a very narrow window?
It flags it on every option and shows what it means for the rest of the round, so the call is made in full knowledge.
Are our customer addresses protected?
Yes. The agent is hosted in France, on local inference or an isolated resource, with the deployment objective of processing and access operated within the European Union and an architecture designed to reduce exposure to extraterritorial legislation, location alone not being enough to guarantee immunity. Your operational data is not used to train a third-party model.
Does it connect to our operations tool?
Yes, to the common tools, reading the orders and the resources available. The integration is defined at the design stage.
How long does it take to deploy this agent?
A few weeks as a rule, depending on the number of vehicles, stops served and how detailed your constraints are, after a free audit then a phase of design, integration and testing.
Can the agent notify recipients by text message?
Yes, as an option. The agent announces the chosen delivery window by text message, and any delay before it is suffered. A text message is an outbound notification channel, not a conversation channel: no one writes back to the agent there — the conversation stays on WhatsApp Business, your website chat or email. The message announces without detailing, it carries your registered sender name, and it never contains a payment link, a login or a password: the recipient reaches your account area the way they usually do. Delivery goes through a gateway established in the European Union; the messages sent are passed on to you at actual cost, with no margin, and the channel itself is an optional module, set out on the pricing page.
