Why rate shopping on FreightCake actually works

Real normalization, real coverage, and a smart-sort that ranks the carrier most likely to actually win the load.

Available carriers, one quote

One request brings available national, regional, and connected contract rates together for the lane and shipment.

Accessorials, normalized

Liftgate, residential, inside delivery, and hazmat pricing can vary by carrier. FreightCake presents available quote totals consistently for side-by-side review.

Your contract rates plus ours

Plug in your existing carrier accounts and quote them alongside FreightCake's available rates. Pick the option that fits the shipment.

Smart sort, not raw sort

Sort available options by all-in price, transit time, on-time score, or service guarantee to review more than the lowest sticker price.

Supported modes in one search

Compare connected rates for supported LTL and parcel shipments from the same quote form and rate board.

Re-quote on the fly

When order details change, use AI assistance to rerun supported rate shops and review updated carrier options before booking.

Save your favorite quotes

Pin a quote, share a link, send it to a customer for approval. The rate is held; book it later without re-running the shop.
