routes_eta

How long it takes to travel between two places, by road rather than as the crow flies. Can be asked about a future departure, or told when you need to arrive and answer when to leave

2 credits per call, from your balance — or paid per request in USDC with no account at all.

Runs on Routes — How to get from one place to another — time, traffic and turn-by-turn.
