How it works
We calculate an adjusted ETA
Base transit time is combined with a historical-delay buffer derived from the on-time rate and the current traffic delay, then scaled by carrier reliability.
Get an ETA with a confidence range
The result gives a single adjusted ETA plus a low–high range that widens as historical reliability drops.

Frequently asked questions
Does ETAForge pull real-time traffic or GPS data?
No. ETAForge computes results only from the figures you enter — it does not connect to live GPS, telematics, or traffic-API data. It is a planning and estimation calculator, not a live tracking system.
Where do I get the historical on-time percentage?
Use your own delivery records or carrier scorecards for this route — even a rough estimate from recent deliveries improves the adjustment over ignoring history entirely.
Why does a low carrier-reliability factor widen the range further?
A carrier with more variable performance has larger unpredictable swings from its average, so the confidence band is scaled wider to reflect that added uncertainty.
Can I use this for multi-leg shipments?
Yes, sum the base transit hours across legs and enter it as one total, using the reliability factor of the carrier handling the leg most likely to cause delay.
Is the adjusted ETA a guaranteed delivery time?
No. It is an estimate based on the inputs you provide, useful for internal planning and customer communication, not a binding delivery commitment.
