Are You Getting the Best Shipping Rates?
Shipping costs are one of the largest expenses in your supply chain, but knowing whether you're getting the best rates isn't always straightforward.
Now and then, new rate programs become available; contracts evolve, and carrier performance shifts. But the challenge for many shippers isn't just finding lower rates; it's knowing whether meaningful opportunities exist in the first place.
That's exactly why we built Rate Optimizer.
Start With Evidence, Not Assumptions
Rate Optimizer compares your historical shipments against alternative rate programs to help identify and evaluate potential shipping cost opportunities.
Instead of relying on assumptions, Rate Optimizer allows you to quickly see:
If alternative rate programs would reduce shipping costs.
How alternatives could impact transit times.
The potential financial impact and operational feasibility.
Whether the analysis uncovers savings or validates that your current strategy is already competitive, you'll have the information you need to decide what comes next.
When Can Rate Optimizer Help?

Walk into renewal discussions with a better understanding of how your current rates compare against alternative programs.

Better Decisions Start With Better Visibility
All in all, Rate Optimizer isn't about telling you which carrier to choose; it's about giving you better visibility into your shipping opportunities so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
