Everything in the in-app help center, by topic.

Get started¶

Getting started: What Fab Dispatch does, and your first five minutes with it.
The six views: What each tab shows and when to use it.
The assistant: What the assistant can answer, where its answers come from, and its limits.

The five strategies: Greedy, Hungarian, Regret-2, ALNS and PyVRP, and when each one wins.
Constraints and cost weights: The rules no plan may break, and the soft costs you can tune.
Reading the floor plan: Marks, routes, coverage changes and the inspector's explanations.
What-if scenarios: Generate shifts, report a job, take an engineer off shift, and plan with predicted durations.
Benchmark and optimality: Compare strategies over many shifts with confidence intervals, and measure the gap to the optimum.

Metrics reference: Every metric on the scorecards and in the benchmark, and which direction is better.
Glossary: Fab and dispatch terms used in the app.
