Know the day a carrier you count on changes

Authority revoked, insurance cancelled, an out-of-service order landing. fleetfax watches your carriers in the federal record and shows you the day it turns up.

Get started free

Free for a book of up to 50 carriers (launch offer through Sep 28, normally 15), 3 of them on same-day watch.

Your book

Your whole book, read against the federal record every day

One row per carrier: what the federal record says, what your own policy says, and what you actually ran with them — loads, last load, dispatcher. A carrier that cleared onboarding in March can be uninsured by June; the row changes the day the record does, and what changed waits for you in your account.

Filter the book by what is wrong with it: blocking, outside your policy, not used in 90 days. Open a row for the finding and the rule that decided it, switch to the map, or put three carriers side by side.

fleetfax reads the federal record once a day, so same-day means the day a change shows up in that read. Alerts land in your account, where you read them when you come back. Email is not part of this yet.

The fleetfax book: 102 carriers, facet chips counting 7 blocking, 78 outside your policy, 16 not used in 90 days, 15 never vetted and 79 clear; tabs for All, Active, Issues, Dormant and Favorites; then one row per carrier with the federal record verdict, the broker's own policy result, loads, last load and dispatcher.

One row per carrier. The federal record's verdict on the left, your own policy's result beside it, then what you actually ran with them. One click shows only the carriers that are blocking, outside your policy, or not used in 90 days. An illustrative composite: carrier names are fictional, their DOT numbers are unissued, and every figure in frame was authored for this image.

The book's map view: a heat map of the lower 48 built from roadside inspections and crashes over 24 months for ten selected carriers, densest through the Southeast and along the I-95 corridor, with a panel to choose which carriers are on the map.

Where your carriers were observed. The same book as a map: heat from roadside inspections and crashes over the last 24 months, drawn from where the trucks were stopped, not from a service area typed into a form. Pick up to ten carriers at a time.

Three carriers side by side: the same rows of the federal record read across each one, location, authority, insurance, cargo, underwriter, fleet size, safety rating, roadside inspections, out-of-service rates, crashes, a small map of observed activity, and the date last observed.

Three at once. Pick carriers from the book and read the same rows of the federal record across each of them. fleetfax does not rank them or pick one for you.

The 90-day digest of a book: tabs for 7, 30 and 90 days, a heading reading 4 carriers need a look, then one block per carrier with a severity chip reading blocking or to check, the dated events beneath it, and the inspection count for the window on the right. Below them a line separating what is true today from what happened in the window, and a routine-activity roll-up counting the inspections and filings that did not need a look.

What moved on your book. Ninety days in one read: the carriers that need a look, named for what moved, over a roll-up of the routine activity that did not. A free account watches up to 50 carriers (launch offer through Sep 28, normally 15), with same-day watch on up to 3 of them. An illustrative composite: carrier names are fictional, their DOT numbers are unissued, and every figure in frame was authored for this image.

Change timeline

See how often a carrier's record changes

Every carrier you watch carries a count of what changed in the federal record over the last 12 months: how many insurance changes, how many authority changes. A record with a dozen changes in a year reads differently from one with two, and the counts show you that at a glance.

The fleetfax change timeline on a carrier report: a dated, reverse-chronological list filtered to all 568 events, with category filters for insurance, authority, safety and identity. Rows include roadside inspections with their violation counts and states, two identity rows dated July 4 reading company officer on record changed from none to a name, each tagged observed by fleetfax, and a June 19 row reading prior-revocation flag cleared in the census record.

The Pro timeline Pro: one carrier, June 19 to July 14. Inspections and crashes carry the date FMCSA recorded them. Rows tagged observed by fleetfax are day-over-day differences in the carrier's own record, dated to when fleetfax saw them move, and they name both sides of the change: an officer field going from empty to a name on July 4, and a prior-revocation flag clearing in the census record on June 19. Filter by category to read one thread at a time, or set an as-of date and see the record as it stood on the day you checked. Officer names in this view are fictional and the carrier is not named.

The dated view above, with its field-level before-and-after, is part of fleetfax Pro, which has not launched yet.

Alert, timeline and insurance views are captured from the product, July and August 2026, including Pro views. Every carrier, name, identifier, date and amount in them was authored for the images; the layouts, the wording and the arithmetic are the product’s own. Built on the federal carrier record.
