Price with the Lane Rate Board

Management / owner — the money view is role-gated

Three numbers on every lane — what you earned, what the market pays (source and date shown), and your break-even computed from your own fuel, driver pay, and overhead. Decisions on math, not memory.

Each lane shows earned · market · break-even with a verdict, and the paybook below shows where your booked rates landed against the market.

The steps

  1. Open Loads & Rates ▸ Lane Rates — every lane shows its three lines and an honest verdict: healthy, below market, or below break-even.
  2. Check the break-even basis in the header: fuel $/mi + driver pay $/mi + overhead $/mi, computed from your own last-30-days data — it tightens automatically as more loads run.
  3. Set a rate agreement once per customer (per-mile, flat, or per-unit, fuel surcharge and minimums included) and every matching load arrives already priced — including loads the customer submits through their own link.
  4. Scroll to Booked vs market — the paybook: where every booked load landed against the benchmark current when it moved, by customer and by lane.
  5. On the dispatch board this same intelligence shows as grades, so dispatchers work the economics without seeing dollars.
  6. When a truck delivers, open backhaul suggestions — every known lane leaving that drop, what each pays, and the quote floor a paying return leg unlocks.

Gotchas

Good to know: Market lines need a benchmark source synced under Integrations — no benchmark, no fake number; the row says no benchmark yet.
Good to know: The quote floor is the differentiator: a paying backhaul lowers what the round trip needs, so you can hold a customer at a rate competitors can't touch — on math you can prove.
