10.4 Real-Time Data and Market Conditions

DAT Filter displays load data sourced directly from the DAT loadboard in real time. This data — including load availability, rates, RPM, distances, broker information, and market conditions — changes continuously and may be outdated by the time you act on it.

We do not guarantee:

  • That any load displayed will still be available when you contact the broker

Broker disclaimer: Broker information displayed by DAT Filter — including contact details, ratings, and payment history — is sourced from third-party data and may not reflect current standing. Past broker performance does not guarantee future payment. Always conduct your own due diligence before entering into any agreement with a broker.

All business decisions made using DAT Filter — including accepting loads, contacting brokers, and negotiating rates — are made at your sole discretion and risk. DAT Filter is not responsible for any financial outcome resulting from decisions based on data displayed by the service.
