SONAR (gosonar.com) — Freight tendering telemetry turned into index series: electronic load tenders that shippers push to carriers, and the carriers' accept/decline responses, yielding truckload demand (volume), capacity, rejection-rate and lead-time series. Delivered as a large index family (STVI volume, STRI rejection, STMS moving/spot capacity, STLT lead time, SALOH length-of-haul) sliced by equipment (van, reefer, flatbed), by length-of-haul band (0-100, 101-250, 251-450, 451-800, 800+ miles), by geography (national, regional, state, market, plus several Canadian markets), with weekly/mon…

SONAR (gosonar.com) offers (Alternative, Price, Supply Chain, Sentiment) — est. millions of tender-and-response events per month (basis: the series are computed at state and market granularity from electronic tendering across large shipper accounts, which requires very high event counts to be stable at that resolution), aggregated into dozens of index series across five length-of-haul bands, three equipment types and four geographic levels.

Truckload spot-rate forecasting and capacity-tightness nowcasts; alternative-data macro indicators for equity research on truckload carriers, brokers and consumer staples (tender volume is a real-time demand signal ahead of earnings); carrier bid and pricing model training; pairwise preference / acceptance-probability model training on tender-versus-outcome pairs; network design and fleet positioning by lane; retail inventory and shipped-goods volume inference; supply-chain disruption detection.

The data is with 7 years of history.
