Prophesy Launches EasyStreet, Commercial street-level Mileage & Routing Software for the Trucking Industry

(Bloomfield, CT and Burlington, MA -- August 8, 2006) Prophesy Transportation Solutions, Inc. the leading provider of software solutions for the trucking industry, was founded 20 years ago as a supplier of commercial mileage & routing software. Today the company proudly announces their next-generation mileage product, Prophesy EasyStreet, designed in collaboration with Maptuit Corporation

The new system offers trucking companies the nation’s most sophisticated commercial street level routing and directions, instead of just city to city! Prophesy EasyStreet, is the most accurate and customizable routing in the industry, offering optimized routing, on-demand directions, truck restrictions, toll avoidance, advanced urban routing, door-to-door directions, and advanced geocoding.

“Prophesy EasyStreet goes way beyond earlier generations of our industry acclaimed mileage & routing offerings,” said Prophesy President Edward J. Forman, “EasyStreet offers a dynamic online component which is updated in real-time to account for any permanent changes to the US road network and even short-term alternative routings caused by natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina and the recent flooding in the North East. EasyStreet is the most powerful and detailed commercial mileage & routing solution ever offered, and is simply not available anywhere else with this level of accuracy.. ”

Prophesy chose to partner with Maptuit to produce this solution for the trucking industry, selecting that company based on the the high qualityof commercial route detail for virtually all city streets in the US. Key strategic differentiators of the EasyStreets database include minimization of turns, favor of left turns over right turns for safety, data for 53’ trailers, height and weight restrictions, more than 16,000 toll roads, and perhaps most importantly a community of 70,000 drivers who regularly provide feedback and notifications on road conditions, allowing updates to the online database to reflect current conditions in near real-time.

“We are proud to have partnered with Prophesy, a leader in its space and jointly collaborate to bring a high- end product that guarantees real value and that is a real solution to many trucking companies” stated Jeff Papows, CEO Maptuit. “Technology has become increasingly accepted by carriers of all sizes, and it helps trucking companies and drivers become more efficient, ensuring operators get to their final destination faster, safer and with greater detail than ever before”
