DAT

DAT runs North America’s largest truckload marketplace, connecting carriers, brokers, and shippers. Founded in 1978 and owned by Roper Technologies, DAT also sells freight rate data, factoring, and load tracking.

What DAT offers

• DAT One load board for finding loads and trucks
• RateView freight rate analytics by lane
• DAT Outgo freight factoring
• ELD-based load tracking (DAT acquired Trucker Tools in December 2024)
• Help getting MC and DOT numbers for new carriers

Who it is for

Carriers of every size, from owner-operators to large fleets, plus freight brokers and shippers.

Why it matters for carriers

Knowing current lane rates helps carriers price loads and plan driver pay. Steady freight from a large load board also helps keep drivers moving, which supports retention.
