Empty returns · before & after joining Relayed
Traditional work: you finish a delivery and ride 8 km back empty. That fuel is gone, that time is gone, that revenue never existed.
On Relayed: when you finish a delivery, pull up the driver app. Parcels going your direction are listed at the nearest station. Pick up, ride back, deliver, repeat. Same fuel — double the revenue.
◦ Backhaul rate rises sharply with network density.
