TomTom
Your AI agent calculates driving routes, searches for nearby businesses, geocodes addresses, and checks real-time traffic through TomTom during live conversations. Logistics teams optimize delivery paths, field service apps find the nearest locations, and customer-facing agents provide directions, all powered by TomTom's mapping and routing engine.
Your AI agent queries TomTom's suite of location APIs during interactions. Route calculations, address lookups, and traffic data flow into conversations without requiring map interfaces.
TomTom
See how logistics, field service, and customer support teams use AI agents with TomTom to deliver location intelligence during live interactions.
A logistics coordinator has 8 deliveries scheduled for the day. They share the addresses with the AI agent, which geocodes each one via TomTom, then calculates an optimized route with all stops as waypoints. The coordinator receives turn-by-turn directions with estimated arrival times at each location. Total driving time drops by 30% compared to the original sequence.
A dispatcher needs to route a technician to an urgent repair. They ask the AI agent to check traffic on the direct route. The agent pulls TomTom flow segment data showing heavy congestion on the highway and an incident blocking one lane. The dispatcher reroutes the technician via an alternate path, and the agent calculates the new ETA. The technician arrives on time despite the roadblock.
A customer in a support chat asks for the nearest store location. The AI agent takes the customer's zip code, geocodes it to coordinates via TomTom, then performs a Nearby Search for the retail category within a 15-mile radius. The agent returns the three closest stores with addresses, distances, and a static map image showing the locations. The customer picks a store without opening a separate map app.

FAQs
The agent calls TomTom's Calculate Route endpoint with origin and destination coordinates, optional waypoints, travel mode, and departure time. TomTom returns the route geometry, total distance, estimated travel time, and step-by-step instructions. The Matrix Routing endpoint handles multi-origin-to-multi-destination calculations for fleet scenarios.
The agent supports Fuzzy Search (free-text address and POI queries), Category Search (businesses by type like restaurants or gas stations), Nearby Search (radius-based around coordinates), and Points of Interest Search (named POI queries). Each returns locations with addresses, coordinates, and metadata.
Tars uses a single TomTom API key for authentication. Generate your key from the TomTom Developer Portal and enter it in the Tars tool configuration. The key grants access to all Search, Routing, Traffic, and Map Display APIs based on your subscription.
No. Routes, geocoding results, traffic data, and search results are fetched live from TomTom during conversations. Tars does not cache or persist location data between sessions.
Yes. The Flow Segment Data endpoint returns current speeds, free-flow speeds, and confidence levels for road segments. The Traffic Incidents endpoint returns active incidents within a geographic bounding box, including type, severity, and affected road names.
Yes. The EV Charging Stations Availability endpoint returns nearby charging stations with connector types and real-time status. The routing engine can also factor in vehicle range and charging stops when calculating routes for electric vehicles.
Embedded maps require UI development and user interaction with a visual interface. Through Tars, location intelligence becomes conversational. Users describe what they need in natural language, and the agent returns structured data, directions, or map images without building a map interface.
Yes. The Static Image endpoint generates map snapshots at specified coordinates and zoom levels. The Raster Tile and WMS GetMap endpoints produce tiles for custom map displays. The agent can share these images directly in the conversation for visual context.
Don't limit your AI Agent to basic conversations. Watch how to configure and add powerful tools making your agent smarter and more functional.
