# Autolane API

The Autolane API provides programmatic access to real-time autonomous commerce data for your organization's sites, from AV ride-hail coordination and occupancy analytics to autonomous delivery operations.

## Available APIs

### Direct Delivery (Live)

Enable autonomous last-mile delivery for your retail locations:

* **Submit orders**: push orders with customer contact, delivery address, and ready-by time
* **Track deliveries**: monitor order status from pending through completion
* **Receive webhooks**: get real-time status updates via signed HTTP callbacks
* **Manage lifecycle**: update orders, cancel deliveries, and rotate webhook secrets

Authenticated with Autolane API keys. See the [Direct Delivery Overview](/direct-delivery/overview) to get started.

### AV / Ride-Hail Analytics (Live)

Access real-time analytics for autonomous vehicle and ride-hail operations at your sites:

* **Track occupancy trends**: monitor stall utilization over time
* **Analyze usage patterns**: see pickup/dropoff breakdowns by hour, day, or month
* **Measure performance**: access key metrics like session counts, dwell times, and occupancy rates
* **Monitor AV activity**: track autonomous vehicle sessions by provider
* **Compare stall types**: see utilization across multi-use, pick-up, and ride-hail stalls
* **View zone statistics**: get per-zone session counts and throughput

### Self-Delivery (Coming Soon)

Enables partners to allow their customers to send personally owned autonomous vehicles to their location for autonomous pickups. Coordinate customer-initiated AV arrivals and track self-delivery sessions.
