Road pricing logic

European road freight does not have one universal free public live-rate API. V1 therefore combines corridor benchmarks and transparent cost/rate assumptions. Live road-market providers can be connected when licensed.

An IndusLog estimate is never presented as a carrier quotation. Users must request RFQs for contractual transport prices.

How IndusLog decides what to show

Not every logistics value has the same evidential strength. An official tariff, a current carrier quotation, a public weekly fuel reference and a planning benchmark answer different questions. IndusLog therefore labels values by origin and avoids presenting an estimate as if it were confirmed transactional data.

Reference date matters

Fuel, freight and regulatory values can change. Where a number is time-sensitive, users should check the update date and verify the final value before a commercial or regulatory decision.

User-entered values

If you enter a negotiated price, custom fuel assumption or internal planning value, the tool treats it as a user input rather than an external fact. This helps prevent a private assumption from being mistaken for a public market reference.

Corrections

If you find an outdated source or calculation assumption, use Suggest a feature or Contact and include the page, value and source you are comparing.
