A real human reads it. We benchmark every fee against 47 verified Australian 3PL contracts. You receive a four-page advisory in 48 hours. Free.
Each review is a tailored four-page document. Not a leaderboard. Not a chatbot output. A real assessment by someone who has audited dozens of these contracts.
Hidden fees that compound. Long-term storage triggers. Cost-plus shipping markup percentages. Auto-renewal traps. Indemnity asymmetries. Rate-card footnotes. The whole catalogue of contract things that quietly cost brands money.
Every review is written in-house. Backed by hands-on AU ecommerce operating experience and the 3PL Compare benchmark dataset.
Your contract is encrypted at rest. Never shared with any 3PL. Never used to give a competitor leverage. Anonymised line items may be added to the AU 3PL Pricing Index only with your explicit consent. Raw contracts are auto-deleted from storage after 90 days. We are not a marketplace — your contract is not a lead.
Takes about 90 seconds. We'll email back in 48 hours.

Nothing. The review is free to brands. We are funded by per-introduction fees from 3PL partners — never by brands. There is no upsell.
48 hours from upload, on weekdays. Reviews submitted Friday or Saturday return Monday or Tuesday. If you need it faster, mention it in the form — we have flexed for tight retailer-PO timelines.
No. Your contract is encrypted at rest, never shared with any 3PL, and auto-deleted from raw storage after 90 days. Anonymised line items may be added to the AU 3PL Pricing Index only with your explicit consent.
PDF, DOCX, scanned image, or photo of the rate card. If you can read it, we can read it. If you only have a rate card and not the full contract, that is fine — we will note what's missing.
17% of the brands we audit are paying at or below market median. If yours is one of them, the verdict will say "stay" and explain why. Most reviews don't end in switching.
No. We only introduce — and only after the review and only if switching is the recommended call. The introduction itself is also free for the brand. The 3PL pays us per introduction.
"My biggest 3PL mistake was not having anyone independent read the contract before I signed. It cost me $14,000 over eighteen months. Don't make my mistake."
