When your carrier, leadership team, or finance org asks where a rate came from, market trends or indexes aren’t defensible answers. DAT iQ is built on $1.2T+ in verified, paid invoice transactions — the rates shippers and brokers actually settled, not booking signals or tender activity. That foundation powers every benchmark, forecast, and sourcing decision on the platform.

Download this one-pager to see how DAT iQ data is sourced, validated, and applied — and how the accuracy of freight data shows up in real outcomes: 5–15% average cost savings during sourcing cycles, $1.5M in cost avoidance for a global manufacturer, and 29% savings for a building materials company rebalancing its asset vs. broker mix.

When you need to make defensible freight procurement decisions, see why you can rely on DAT.
