DAT Freight & Analytics · FinOps Profile

Dat Freight Finops

FinOps view of DAT spend. DAT API access is not billed as a standalone metered product - it rides on a DAT One product subscription. The dominant cost drivers are per-user load board and RateView subscription seats (Combo Pro or Combo Premium for RateView), a possible one-time integration setup fee, and, where applicable, transaction fees on booked loads. Because pricing is quote-based and the developer portal is account-gated, per-unit rates are not reconciled here and should come from a DAT sales quote.

Dat Freight Finops is the FinOps profile for DAT Freight & Analytics on the APIs.io network, aligned with the FinOps Foundation Framework.

It defines 4 billable meters, billed in USD, on a monthly cycle, and pricing category subscription-based.

The profile maps 8 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.

Tagged areas include Freight, Load Board, RateView, FinOps, and Cost Management.
