Everybody quotes the same structure.
The problem
Three carriers quote your lane three different ways. One is all-in, one excludes chassis, one has a fuel surcharge you cannot check. Choosing between them is guesswork dressed as procurement, and the cheapest number is usually the one that left the most out.
What changes
- 1
Everybody quotes the same structure
Line haul, fuel, chassis, accessorials. The same fields from every carrier, so the comparison is a comparison rather than a translation exercise.
- 2
The surcharge is checkable
It follows a published index with a stated threshold and step. You can recompute it yourself, which means you can also tell when it stops matching.
- 3
You see who they are before you call
Terminals worked, endorsements held, where they deliver, what they will not carry — and how recently they confirmed any of it.
- 4
Rate history that outlives the quote
A published rate is a version, not an edit. What applied last March still says so.
The directory, with the columns a buyer chose to compare on.
- 766
- terminals
- 49
- accessorial charges
- 3
- fuel indices
$49 per seat, per month
Flat. No tiers, no volume discount, and the same price in every country we operate in. The API is included, because integrating your systems is what makes this worth staying in. And the price you sign does not rise at renewal — which is not a small promise in a trade where the standard tool raises it 25 to 45 per cent.
How you pay
Monthly by card, or annually by bank transfer — ten months paid for twelve months of service. The transfer option is not an afterthought: a mid-sized company in Mexico or Colombia invoices annually by transfer far more comfortably than it takes a monthly card charge.
The price you sign does not rise at renewal.
