Add features that make it easier for users to monitor rates

On February 28, 2023, the ATI.SU Freight Exchange announced the update of the Average Rates service, designed to track prices for cargo transportation and assess the number of offers. Added features to the tool to make it easier for users to monitor rates.

The Medium Rates service allows freight owners and freight forwarding companies to analyze the freight transportation market in thousands of directions, set optimal prices, and regulate logistics costs.

The analysis of average rates helps carriers to choose directions that are beneficial for the work and reasonably set prices for the delivery of goods. The information is relevant only for trucks with a lifting capacity of 20 tons and a volume of 82 m3.

The service has added functions that allow you to comprehensively analyze the market. Thus, for users working in areas not available in the "Average Rates" service, in the updated version it became possible to study rates in the context of regions in the format "city-region," "region-region" and "region-city."

Also, market participants can analyze rates for body types: "closed," "open," "tent" and "refrigerated." This allows you to navigate prices for a specific type of vehicle, and not in general for everything. Carriers no longer need to calculate the cost of sending the car back and forth. This function - viewing bets on the "round" - helps to immediately determine the average price of the flight.

The service has the opportunity to see the number of all cargoes that were posted on the ATI.SU website in the selected direction on the selected day. This will allow users to evaluate cargo offers in different directions and quickly respond to market changes. For example, to analyze how the fall in the number of applications for transportation will affect their cost.

Now users can receive and process information without having a programmer on staff. The service has the ability to upload rates by direction to CSV and Excel files with different aggregation: by month, week and day.

For those who are interested in integrating rates into user software, the function of uploading them through the API will be useful. You can get data with different discreteness: monthly, Monday and per day. This mechanism allows you to work with data in a way that is convenient for the user. The API also allows you to unload the spread of rates and the amount of cargo in the selected directions and period.

Updated tools for analyzing average freight prices provide convenient market research opportunities. Using the "Average Rates," cargo owners will be able to plan work and budgets taking into account market changes, and carriers will be able to choose the most interesting directions and take orders at current rates. The updated service will meet the tasks of users and help to quickly adjust business processes, commented Svyatoslav Wilde, founder and director of the ATI.SU Freight Exchange.

The beta version of the Middle Rates service was launched in March 2022, in August 2022 the service was officially launched and is available to all users. It allows you to analyze the prices for the delivery of goods in 3 thousand directions for fully loaded cars 20 tons, 82 m³. The service shows the average rate with VAT and without VAT, as well as the spread of prices - from the minimum to the maximum. In addition, users have access to information on changing rates for various periods from 3 months to 3 years, as well as for the entire time of accumulating data along the route.

With the help of the "Average Rates" service, cargo owners and forwarding companies will be able to analyze the market, set optimal prices for the transportation of cargo, and regulate logistics costs. Carriers, in turn, having studied prices in a particular direction, can reasonably set a rate and not lose money. Analysis of average rates will help them also choose favorable directions for work.

The functionality of the service is constantly being finalized, in August 2022 three functions were added to it, making it easier for users. In order not to manually enter the necessary direction names, you can download the file with all directions through the "Routes from file" function and get an upload at average rates in the CSV and Excel file. You can simultaneously view several graphs for vehicles with different body types (closed, open, refrigerated, tented). It is possible to integrate the "Average Rates" service according to the API, which will allow large cargo owners and forwarding companies to display average prices for the routes of interest in their system when placing cargo.

In August 2022, the Medium Rates service reflects prices for the transportation of cargo from one settlement to another. In October 2022, the ATI.SU Exchange team will launch an analysis of rates in the context of regions. This function will be useful for market participants working in low-demand settlements for which there is not enough data to analyze prices. In this case, it will be possible to find out the average rates for transportation to the region where the settlement of interest is located.

In addition, it will be possible to watch the bets on the "round" - how much it costs to send the car back and forth. Often the price of transportation between the two cities differs depending on the direction of movement and this affects the budget of the order with the return of the car.

For a long time, market participants did not have tools for analyzing current prices for cargo transportation. In 2021, we launched the "ATI.SU Index." It became a real tool for market analytics. "Average rates" is an analytical tool within our ecosystem of digital services. It reflects the value of rates in absolute terms, which opens up even more practically useful opportunities for market participants. Based on objective data, it is possible to plan the company's work more efficiently, adjust plans and budgets. In 2022, this is especially important due to the increased market volatility and the difficulty of forecasting, noted Svyatoslav Wilde, founder and director of the ATI.SU Freight Exchange.
