DAT Freight & Analytics today kicked off the TIA 2025 Capital Ideas Conference in San Antonio with a focus on groundbreaking new technology and systems to help freight brokers ensure that only validated and trusted carriers can book, view, or interact with their loads.

“Battling fraud is a shared responsibility across the entire industry, and DAT is creating tools for brokers to quickly vet new carriers, reduce the risk of fraudulent behavior, and operate with transparency,” said DAT CEO & President Jeff Clementz. “At TIA, we invite you to connect with our experts and explore our innovative approach to building trusted relationships.”

Product Demonstrations

Visit DAT at Booth 701 for demos of DAT iQ, DAT One, and Trucker Tools products, including services that reduce the risk of fraud.

• Carrier Management Suite integrates carrier authentication directly into your DAT One workflow. Unlike tools that rely on subjective scores or algorithmic rankings, Carrier Management Suite helps you qualify, source, manage, and book capacity based on objective assessments and eliminates the need for separate vendors to vet, onboard, track, and tender loads.
• Trucker Tools will showcase its Fraud Toolkit, including new alerts when carriers book more loads than their available truck capacity, use jailbroken phones, or use location emulators to send fake GPS location updates. These notifications are in addition to our alerts for international IPs, IP masking, VOIP numbers, proactive location verification, and geotagged document scanning. Stop by the DAT booth to learn more.
• DAT iQ delivers unmatched rate visibility and validation, network analysis, and predictive analytics to your business, with pricing models trained on $1 trillion in customer-submitted transactions since 2010. Explore broker-focused enhancements to the DAT iQ platform, including our iQ Benchmark product and an exclusive preview of our shipper spot rate offering.
