What's new for brokers at DAT? Lots.

Multi-mode pricing, market intel, automation, fraud protection, and what went down in Phoenix.

Closing the multi-mode pricing gap:
TL and IMDL benchmarks, now in DAT iQ

A shipper calls with a lane. You need to know whether TL or intermodal makes more sense on price, on timing, on capacity. You pull TL rates from RateView. Then you pull IMDL rates from somewhere else. Then you try to reconcile two different data sources with different methodologies, different geographies, and different levels of transparency.

It’s a workflow problem that produces pricing errors. So we changed that.

Case study:
J&A Transportation scales its agent model with the Convoy Platform

For agent brokerages, time spent chasing capacity is time not spent selling. J&A Transportation found a better way: the Convoy Platform integration inside AscendTMS lets agents post loads, see matches, and book freight without leaving their existing TMS workflow. Back-office automation handles carrier outreach, negotiation, GPS tracking, and documentation. If a load doesn't cover, there's no fee. If it does, agents save up to 27% on truck costs with nearly a third of matches happening outside business hours.

What even is MFA?

You're juggling loads, carriers, and customers all at once. The last thing you want slowing you down is a security measure that feels like a hassle. But here's the reality: the accounts your brokerage depends on are a target, and a strong password alone won’t protect them.
