Our take
DAT Freight & Analytics operates the largest truckload freight marketplace in North America, deploying freight-matching and analytics solutions to companies all across the freight logistics industry. At its core, the company exists to help businesses optimize their freight operations and achieve pricing power over a hyper-dynamic marketplace.
The company derives its data from the millions of freight matches powered by its platform, as well as a database of market transactions. This enables it to provide transportation brokers, carriers, industry analysts and other organizations with clear and actionable insights into market trends.
Having been a market leader for over 40 years, the company has grown from being a single bulletin board at a gas station in Oregon to seeing its technology deployed to millions of end users. DAT has been consistently focused on R&D and the expansion of its offering, including by acquisitions such as that of the freight-matching Convoy Platform.
