Abstract

Hexaly Studio is a no-code SaaS platform for mathematical optimization. Hexaly No-Code Modeler allows users to create a mathematical optimization model based on a business description of its characteristics. The verticals currently handled by Hexaly No-Code Modeler are Vehicle Routing and Production Scheduling. Consequently, using Hexaly Studio, software developers and data scientists can build rich Vehicle Routing or Production Scheduling apps without writing a line of code. This no-code approach is particularly powerful for fast prototyping.

For each vertical, the user can describe the business problem – decisions, constraints, objectives – by selecting the appropriate business features along a straightforward workflow. Then, the Hexaly No-Code Modeler builds a Hexaly model, together with sample data inputs and a dashboard with appropriate widgets to visualize the solutions provided by Hexaly Optimizer. The widgets can be texts, tables, maps, (Gantt) charts, etc. Having explored the solution using sample data, the user can feed the Hexaly model with real-world data and adjust the model constraints and objectives in no-code, or directly by customizing the Hexaly model.
