What I want to create
A mobile application (iOS + Android) for truck drivers in the USA that:
Accepts a PDF document with Rate Confirmation;
Automatically extracts from it:
Pickup location (city/state)
Delivery location (city/state)
Distance (in miles)
Rate ($)
Compares this rate with the current market rate from DAT; DAT is a website where all dispatchers find loads for their drivers.
Shows the result: good/normal/low rate;
Available via subscription: $15/month.
🧩 MVP features (first version)

Automatic retrieval of the current average rate from DAT:
