Atlassys TMS, a Georgia-based transportation management system provider, has announced it has integrated FreightWaves TRAC truckload spot rates into its software.
The integration, which is now live and available to mutual customers, provides FreightWaves Trusted Rate Assessment Consortium (TRAC) spot rates and SONAR Capacity Lane Scores within Atlassys TMS.
FreightWaves is a price reporting agency focused on the global freight market and the leading provider of high-frequency data for the global supply chain. Its price, demand and capacity data allow customers to benchmark, analyze, monitor and forecast the global physical economy.
FreightWaves SONAR provides the clearest insight into freight pricing, and subscribers can reliably forecast supply chain demand and capacity by using spot rate and tender data for predictive rates.

“The dashboard is an absolute game-changer for our dispatch team,” said Eugene Fridman, operations director at Vista Trans, a mutual customer of both FreightWaves and Atlassys TMS. “It allows us to easily see all performance data in real time and quickly identify bottlenecks, track driver performance and ensure that our operations are running smoothly.”
Gnatyuk Pavel, operations manager at Vista Trans, said the integration of TRAC Spot Rates has been an asset to his organization.
“The implementation of the SONAR API check has been a game-changer for our reefer division. With the ability to view prices of potential loads on a daily basis, we now have improved visibility into the market. This tool has enabled us to make informed decisions, respond to market changes quickly and improve the overall efficiency of our operations,” Pavel said. “We are confident that the Sonar API check integration will continue to provide valuable insights to our team and help us stay competitive in the ever-changing transportation industry.”
Spencer Piland, FreightWaves’ chief financial officer, said, “Over the last year, our customers have been asking for our SONAR data to be integrated into their TMSs and other technology platforms. We have been thrilled to work with Atlassys TMS to integrate our API to allow our mutual customers to access high-frequency freight data and facilitate better decision-making.”
