    # Overview

    The Rate Quote API provides a standard way to request freight rate quotes for
    Full Truckload (FTL) shipments. It enables shippers, carriers, and third parties
    to exchange rate information in a consistent, digitized format, reducing manual
    processes and improving pricing transparency across the supply chain.

    # Value Proposition

    ## Shipper

    Shippers can submit a single standardized rate quote request and receive
    responses from one or more carriers, allowing them to compare rates, transit
    times, and service options without managing carrier-specific integrations.

    ## Carrier

    Carriers can receive rate quote requests in a standard format, simplifying
    connectivity with a large number of shippers and third parties while reducing
    onboarding costs and manual quoting processes.

    ## 3rd Party

    Third parties such as brokers and 3PLs can embed the Rate Quote API into their
    platforms to retrieve spot and contract rates programmatically, enabling
    automated load matching and competitive rate shopping.
