routeRANK provides a software solution for travel planning. Unlike other solutions that consider only one means of transport at a time, routeRANK addresses the entire travel route by integrating rail, road and air connections. In a single search, routeRANK's patent-pending technology finds and ranks the best possible travel routes, allowing users to sort  them according to their priorities such as price, travel time and CO2 emissions.

Custom developed versions of the proprietary software are offered to corporate customers and organizations, for their internal use or use on their own website, in both travel and logistics. For example, the Travel Helper developed for the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the integration with Nokia's Green Explorer and the internal version contracted by the Swiss Government.  

Another version illustrating the software is also publicly available on routeRANK's website. Although here the focus is on European travel,airports and flight connections worldwide and road connections in North America are also integrated.
