The Analytics product provides you and your customers with up-to-date insights on previous shipments that each organization moved with you, based on shipment ETA and the filters applied in Settings. Through this feature, you can gain more knowledge about trends, growth, and performance to inform your business decisions.

To view your analytics, navigate to the Shipment Insights page from opening the Explore drop-down and clicking Analytics.


Filter Settings

In the top-right of the Shipment Insights page, you can customize your view using the filter setting.

When you click Apply to set a filter, the page will refresh with the new data, and you’ll see a highlighted field indicating which filter has been applied.

Click the Filter button to open a window in which you can customize a variety of fields, including:

  • Job Type

  • Organization

  • Origin Country

  • Origin Port

  • Destination Country

  • Destination Port

  • Arrival Time

Click the calendar button to open a window in which you can select a date range to analyze. Below this, you’ll see the field Compare To, which you can set to Previous Period or None. If you choose to compare your data to a previous period, you’ll see a +/- % on every applicable metric to indicate how it moved over time.


Overview

The Overview card offers a big-picture view of your shipment data based on the page-level filters applied. See your shipment totals, along with a chart with a visual of their trends over time:

  • Total Shipments

  • Total Volume (in m³)

  • Total Weight (in kg)


Top 3 Modes by # of Shipments

The Top 3 Modes by # of Shipments card breaks down the shipment data from your Overview card based on the modes your customer moves most with you.


Metrics by Mode

The Metrics by Mode cards break down your Overview card into all of the modes your customer has used to move shipments with you. See the metrics included in the Overview card, along with a visual of their trends over time.

These cards summarize your top 5 modes. All other modes are aggregated in the Other card.

💡 Shipment data from the past month appears as a dotted line to indicate an incomplete dataset. If a module is not present, that means there is not data to represent.
