This is a static example of what /score weighs: the offer, operating costs, deadhead, and broker signals before returning one actionable answer.
The numbers below are illustrative, not a live user score. Demurrage is shown as an operating term for context; the current score math uses rate, miles, fuel, and deadhead.

Verdict
