DAT Freight & Analytics released updates to its DAT One load board to help carriers find quality loads quickly, negotiate better rates with fresher market data, and connect with freight brokers they can trust.
“Carriers want to work faster, smarter, and with confidence that they’re connecting with quality partners,” says Christian Greiner, DAT senior director, carrier segment growth. “These updates give carriers tools to spend less time searching, more time hauling, and greater leverage when they negotiate rates. They deliver real value for carriers and reinforce our commitment to drive trust in the marketplace.”
Key takeaways:
· DAT One Pro subscribers can now mark broker offices as “preferred” or “blocked” and zero in on brokers that matter most instead of wasting time sorting through unwanted results.
· The LaneMakers feature in DAT One can identify the 20 most active freight brokers posting loads on a given lane, complete with credit scores and company profiles. It helps carriers find loads fast by targeting brokers who consistently post on their preferred lanes.
· DAT One now has eight additional equipment categories, including Sprinter-style cargo vans, box trucks, and power-only loads for specialized trucking equipment. Carriers running specialized equipment can hone in on loads faster.
