Levy Fleets vs Circuit for Teams
Circuit plans the route. Levy supplies and manages the bike. Different halves of the same delivery operation.
500 stops; up to $750/mo for 5,000
Priced on what the vehicles earn, not per stop
Levy routes operator swap runs, not customer deliveries
Rental, battery ops, theft recovery, maintenance
Cheap routing plus managed vehicles is a sensible small-operation stack
For a small courier operation, Circuit at $100/month solves route planning without the $619/month floor of an enterprise dispatch platform, and that accessibility is its main virtue. It leaves the vehicle question entirely open: who owns the e-bikes, who pays for them, what happens when a battery dies on a Tuesday afternoon, and who covers a stolen one. Running Circuit for the routes and Levy for the bike fleet gives a small operation both halves without either being enterprise-priced.

About Circuit for Teams
Circuit for Teams is the pragmatic middle of the route-planning market. It grew out of a consumer route planner used by individual drivers and scaled into a team product: import stops, optimise the route, dispatch to drivers, track progress, notify recipients. It is priced in stop packages from $100/month for 500 stops up to $750/month for 5,000, which makes it considerably cheaper to start with than enterprise dispatch platforms. Levy is not a route planner and does not compete for that job — it manages the e-bikes and cargo bikes couriers ride, which is the other half of a delivery operation.
Circuit for Teams Features
- Multi-stop route optimization
- Stop import from spreadsheets and integrations
- Driver mobile app with turn-by-turn navigation
- Live delivery progress tracking
- Recipient notifications and delivery windows
- Proof of delivery with photo and signature
- Driver performance reporting
- Route reassignment and mid-route adjustment
- Accessible entry pricing for small teams
Circuit for Teams Pricing
Circuit for Teams prices in stop packages, commonly published from $100/month for 500 stops up to $750/month for 5,000 stops, with larger volumes quoted. The entry point is meaningfully lower than enterprise dispatch platforms, which makes it accessible to small delivery operations that would find a $619/month floor prohibitive.
