Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

I realistically spent between 5 to 15 hours per week on the AI-Powered Route Optimization for Last-Mile Delivery side hustle. Initially, more time was needed for setup, ranging from $500 to $2000 for software and training costs. The time was spent on tasks like learning the AI algorithms, setting up routes for clients, conducting data analysis, and communicating with delivery teams. As I became more efficient, the time spent decreased. Most people online also reported spending a similar amount of time on this hustle, with some investing more hours in the beginning to establish their services before tapering off as they streamlined operations.
