What information does DAT offer?

DAT’s owner operator software does more than just let you post trucks and search for loads. We also give you the information you need to make the best choices for your business. We crunch the numbers on real transactions from the past 15 days to provide you with the most accurate freight rates in the business. We also show you freight broker’s credit scores, average days to pay, and reviews from other carriers, so you’ll have the information to strategically choose the loads that are most likely to grow your business. Plus, market maps, available in some plans, can tell you where demand is high, so you know where to look next.

Are shippers and brokers vetted?

They are! DAT vets shippers and brokers and you’ll be able to see credit scores for all loads posted on our boards. You can also see average days to pay as well as whether the load can be factored, which gives you more information for making better business decisions. The brokers DAT typically works with have credit scores of 90 and up, and pay within four weeks.

What other services does DAT offer?

DAT provides financial services to help owner-operators focus on deliveries. Outgo, a DAT product, offers rapid factoring for eligible loads, giving you quick access to funds so you always have cash on hand.

The DAT Assurance program also helps recover past-due payments, with credits of $250, $500, or $1,000 available depending on your DAT One subscription level.
