PORTLAND, Ore., March 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DAT Freight & Analytics will showcase new business tools and lead several education sessions at the Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS), March 26–28 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville.

Attendees can visit DAT at booth 37415 in the South Wing for demos and one-on-one conversations. At MATS 2026, DAT will highlight:

DAT One, North America's largest load board and freight marketplace, connecting carriers with truckload freight across the U.S. and Canada. Attendees are encouraged to visit the booth to see DAT's new iPhone widget for the DAT One app, which lets drivers view preferred loads directly from their home screen, and sign up for a MATS-exclusive beta test of an upcoming load-recommendation feature.
DAT Outgo, a fully integrated non-recourse freight factoring solution designed to accelerate payment and stabilize cash flow.
Convoy Platform, which automates load matching, booking, tracking, and payments through the free Convoy app.

This marks the first MATS where DAT Outgo and Convoy Platform are featured as part of the DAT family, bringing together the industry's largest freight marketplace with factoring, automation, and digital freight matching.

"We'd love for owner-operators to stop by and see what's new," said Christian Greiner, DAT General Manager, Carrier Marketing and Strategy. "Whether you're running one truck or managing a small fleet, we can walk you through ways to find freight faster, automate the busywork, and speed up cash flow."
