what you're worth.

You know your costs better than anyone. Bulk Insights gives you the other half of the equation: what the lane has actually been paying, so you can hold your number instead of guessing at it.

The problem

Stop negotiating in the dark

A broker on the other end of the phone knows what the lane has paid. Until now, you mostly didn't. That asymmetry is the whole reason rates get talked down: not because the freight isn't worth it, but because you had nothing to point at. Bulk Insights closes that gap with the same settled-freight record they're working from.

It isn't just a rate. It's a rate you can stand behind when someone pushes back.

What you get

Built for how you actually work

  1. 01

    Fuel-adjusted cost per mile

    Rates carry fuel adjustment and cost-per-mile built in, so the number in front of you reflects real margin instead of a gross figure that looks better than it is.

  2. 02

    Lane rates matched to your equipment

    Hopper, end dump, walking floor, belt, and pneumatic are priced separately. No averaging your equipment in with someone else's.

  3. 03

    Confidence scoring

    Every benchmark is scored on how closely the underlying freight matches your lane, so you know when to lean on the number hard and when to treat it as a directional read.

  4. 04

    Commodity trends

    Rate movement by commodity group over 3, 6, 9, or 12 months. Know when your market is firming before you lock in a rate you'll regret.

  5. 05

    Regional load volume

    See where freight is concentrating across the BulkLoads network so you can position equipment ahead of the market instead of chasing it.

  6. 06

    Know a bad lane before you take it

    Run the lane before you commit the truck. The cheapest load to turn down is the one you never booked.
