Built for the way grain actually moves
Mississippi spot rates jumped from $18.71/ton to $25.20/ton in twelve months. A two-week head start on those moves is worth more than a full year of BargePulse.
52-week horizon
Most competitors stop at 12 weeks. BargePulse forecasts a full crop year — so you can plan bookings against the curve.
Advanced AI, not a basic formula
Our forecasting model hit 97.96 % overall accuracy on the most recent 12-month test across all 7 USDA routes.
Accuracy you can verify
Accuracy is shown per route and per horizon — right next to the forecast itself. No marketing claims, just the numbers.
