If you knew how low my rates are, you would be shocked.

In this case, I think you should mention your rates on your profile. It might be an asset.
....aren't really a thing.
Unless you translate 15 pages of medical or legalese text for the same pricing as 2000 pages of grannies getting focus grouped about appliances.
In which case, you're either getting shafted on the finesse work or never ever getting the easy stuff.
It seems that the OP is specialized in legal and financial translation and does not translate anything Anyway when you register in a company's database, they ask for your base rate, which is often the best rate you can offer. You cannot say that the source text is difficult and ask for a specific price for each project. That's why they ask you to register in their database with a base rate. It makes sense because it must be considered as an average rate for all the projects they'll give you. For the sake of convenience, LSPs ask for one rate. They don't ask for a quote for each task if you're their regular provider.

Company databases, yes (but you usually have some sort of understanding what you're doing for them)
Places like Proz or marketplaces like Upwork etc., not so much.
