DAT Freight & Analytics

DAT Freight & Analytics operates the largest truckload freight marketplace in North America - the DAT One load board - along with RateView, the industry's benchmark for spot and contract freight rates drawn from hundreds of billions of dollars in real transactions. DAT exposes these products to Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and freight platforms through the DAT Developer Portal (developer.dat.com), a RESTful API suite covering load posting and search, RateView rate lookups, BookNow instant booking, and shipment tracking. Access is subscription-gated: RESTful integration requires a DAT One load board subscription and a service (organization) account, and RateView access requires a Combo Pro or Combo Premium plan. Every request is authenticated with a two-tier token model - an organization token issued from service-account credentials plus a user token for the account making the call.
