All plans include automatic daily backups, 99.9% platform availability with an SLA, and dedicated support. A 60-day trial includes all features and requires no credit card.

Billing is manually managed, with payment by bank transfer or card and no automatic charges. Tachograph data integration is described as a roadmap direction, not an available feature.

Carrier Assure analyzes trucking-carrier performance to help shippers and freight brokers select and vet companies. It grades carriers from A to F using transportation information such as inspections, violations, CSA scores and safety ratings, drawing on DOT FMCSA data and SAFER reports. The service can flag indicators associated with double brokering, poor visibility and instability. Its performance score is guidance for evaluating a carrier, not a safety measure or guarantee of performance. Listed pricing features include predictive analytics, DOT authority monitoring, SMS and inspection data, and user SuspectCarrier reports. The free Individual plan includes one account and unlimited SuspectCarrier reports. Premium costs $149 a month after the offer period and includes one account, unlimited carrier scores and reports, and access to all data. Enterprise offers multiple accounts, API integration, analytics and reporting, with price not listed. Carrier Assure says it integrates with most platforms and recommends pairing it with RMIS. Additional options include custom scoring, insurance certificate monitoring, and analytics and reporting. The service is available on the web and through an API.
