MeatMarket.ai announces the launch of an open-access version of the USDA’s Daily Boxed Beef and Pork Cutout reports, delivered each morning in Excel format designed for packers, processors, distributors and wholesale market participants.

The new release converts the USDA’s afternoon PDF reports into a standardized, searchable spreadsheet format that allows market participants to sort, filter, add freight and more.

While the USDA publishes daily pricing data for boxed beef and pork cuts, the information is traditionally distributed in static PDF format. MeatMarket.ai’s structured layer transforms that data into a workflow-ready format without altering the underlying USDA source values.

“The USDA provides extraordinary market transparency through its daily reports,” said Justin Ivory, founder of MeatMarket.ai. “However, those reports are typically consumed as static PDFs, which limits how easily professionals can filter, model, and contextualize the data. By delivering the daily cutout in a structured Excel format, we’re making it simpler for buyers, processors, and traders to work directly with the information they already rely on.”

Key features:

• Structured Excel format delivered each morning
• Choice and Select boxed beef cutouts
• Individual sub-primal and trim pricing
• Built-in freight input for delivered price calculation
• USDA-sourced data, unchanged from official reports
• Exportable and searchable format for workflow integration
• Free access with simple email registration

The structured daily cutout is designed to support industry participants who incorporate USDA pricing data into purchasing, sales, operations, and management decisions.

The initiative reflects MeatMarket.ai’s broader focus on data standardization and modernization across wholesale protein markets.

“Reliable pricing data delivers the greatest value when it’s ready for real-world application,” Ivory added. “By structuring USDA reports into an exportable format, we’re reducing friction and enabling faster, more informed decision-making.”

Access to the structured USDA Daily Beef & Pork Cutout is available at MeatMarket.ai/newsletter.
