Know who you're tendering to before the truck shows up.
Chock checks any carrier by USDOT or MC number against FMCSA records in seconds, gives you a Low / Review / High risk call with the reasons in plain English, and watches the carriers you use every day for authority, insurance, and contact changes.
Free during beta. $79/mo Solo plan after. No contract. Brokerages under one year old are welcome.
The problem
Double brokering, identity theft, and fictitious carriers cost brokers loads, claims, and customers. The fraud usually shows up in public records before it shows up at the dock: authority that is weeks old, insurance that was cancelled, a phone number changed last Tuesday.
New authorities
Fraud rings register fresh MC numbers or buy aged ones. Authority age and recent registration changes are the first things Chock checks.
Hijacked identities
A legitimate carrier's contact info gets swapped to a scammer's phone and email. Chock records the contact details and alerts you when they change.
Lapsed insurance
A carrier that was clean at onboarding can lose coverage a month later. Daily monitoring catches cancellations and suspensions.
What every check covers
Built on FMCSA's public registration, licensing & insurance, out-of-service, and safety data, refreshed daily.
Operating authority
Status and type of every MC/FF docket: active, inactive, pending, broker-only.
Authority age
Date authority was granted. Under 90 days is flagged high, under 12 months flagged for review.
Insurance on file
BIPD and cargo filings with FMCSA, insurer and policy number, and any pending cancellation.
Out-of-service orders
Active FMCSA out-of-service orders and recent involuntary suspension notices.
Safety record
Safety rating, roadside inspections, and vehicle/driver out-of-service rates vs national averages.
Identity details
Phone, email, physical and mailing address, officers, and when the registration was last changed.
