How It Works

From MC number to
full risk report in seconds

No manual lookups. No copy-pasting FMCSA data. BrokerSnapshot aggregates every signal that matters and delivers it as a clear, actionable report.

  1. Search a Carrier

    Enter an MC number, DOT number, carrier name, address, phone, or email. BrokerSnapshot instantly pulls records from FMCSA, Secretary of State databases, and our proprietary archive.

  2. AI Analyzes the Data

    Our AI engine processes authority history, safety scores, insurance status, crash data, violations, related entities, and contact validations — then generates a plain-English summary.

  3. Act on Intelligence

    Review the AI summary, drill into any data point, validate contacts, and download the report as PDF. Your full vetting history is always archived and on file.
