Pricing Intelligence

Pricing Intelligence turns lane history into actionable signals: a suggested customer price, a suggested haulier bid range, per-carrier acceptance probability, and auto-bid for trusted hauliers when confidence and acceptance thresholds are met.

Models

• Lane Confidence Model — confidence score (0–1) from sample size and delivery success rate
• Suggested Customer Price — average winning bid uplifted by a margin target (15%)
• Suggested Haulier Bid Range — bid floor and ceiling around the lane benchmark
• Carrier Acceptance Probability — weighted blend of lane familiarity, return-trip overlap, proximity, and active-load overlap
• Auto-Bid Logic — fires when confidence > 0.75, acceptance > 0.85, and the carrier is trusted

Auto-Bid

When a signal has confidence above 0.75, the target carrier's acceptance probability is above 0.85, and the carrier is marked trusted, the system places a bid at the suggested minimum bid price. All other outcomes return the reason the bid was not placed.
