product
the carrier check your desk actually uses.
A readable carrier report on one page, plus monitoring and document checks after you approve.
built for the broker desk
You keep your TMS for loads. Verifreta is the carrier file for the DOT or MC in your inbox — before you send a rate confirmation, and after you add a carrier to your approved list.
One readable report: legal name, flags, fleet, dockets, and cargo carried. Desk adds monitoring, shared-identity flags, COI parsing, and team history so the whole desk sees the same check.
Shopping a Highway alternative because no shipper requires a network gate? That is the desk job — not a tender pass. Keep Highway where the contract still names it.
Shopping a Carrier411 alternative because peer flags became the whole check? Keep Carrier411 if FreightGuard reports start real declines. The desk job is the census report, COI match, and watchlist.
Shopping safer alternatives because SAFER tabs do not share a report? Keep the Company Snapshot. The desk job is still L&I for authority, then COI match and a watchlist — not a second federal page.

DOT, MC, and name lookup
Look up a USDOT number, MC/MX/FF docket, or legal/DBA name. Read legal name, allowed-to-operate flags, census fleet, dockets, and cargo carried on one page before you send a rate confirmation — the same fields you see on DOT 44110 (702 power units).
Change monitoring
Add approved carriers to a watchlist on the $49/mo Desk plan. Get alerts when authority status, insurance filings, or census contact details change so you re-check before the next dispatch.
Shared-identity cross-referencing
See when multiple DOT records share a telephone, address, or officer name. Useful for spotting dispatch services, shared offices, and chameleon patterns before you cover a first-time MC instead of opening six tabs.
COI parsing
Upload a certificate of insurance and compare named insured, limits, and policy dates against the carrier on file. This check catches mismatches early, including on a first-time MC.
Team workspace
Shared lookup history, monitored carriers, and alerts for small broker desks on one $49/mo plan. Everyone gets the same first look on a busy morning.
Broker guides and cargo hubs
Evergreen desk checklists cited to FMCSA and 49 CFR (including Part 387 financial responsibility). Commodity hubs for flatbed, reefer, hazmat, drayage, and more; equipment questions on top of the baseline authority check.
free lookup tools
Start with the identifier on the rate confirmation. USDOT numbers go to DOT lookup. MC, MX, and FF dockets go to MC number lookup. Name search is last — similar names are different companies, and identity theft often uses a near-name.
- DOT lookup — legal name, flags, fleet, dockets, cargo carried
- MC number lookup — the company behind the docket on the rate con
- Carrier name search — pick the row yourself; do not auto-book the first hit
what the report is for
Identity and census: legal name, DBA, address, phone, fleet counts, cargo-carried checkboxes, dockets. Those fields let you match the rate confirmation and know what to ask next. They do not tell you the trailer is on the way, the cargo policy covers the invoice, or the driver is employed by that LLC.
After you match the company, keep the file on your desk. Monitoring, COI parsing, and shared-identity flags are how the next dispatch stays a dated check — not a forwarded screenshot.
after you approve a carrier
The desk plan adds change monitoring on carriers you choose to track. Alerts fire when authority status, insurance filings, or census contact details change. Shared-identity cross-referencing surfaces when multiple DOT records share a telephone or address — useful for dispatch services and chameleon patterns.
Upload a certificate of insurance and compare named insured, limits, and dates against the carrier on file. Team seats let a small broker desk share lookup history, monitored carriers, and alerts without emailing screenshots around.
guides and cargo hubs
Broker guides cover one desk problem each: authority verification, insurance filings, double brokering, hazmat floors, identity checks, and more. Each includes a desk checklist, load-file items, and fail-closed stops cited to FMCSA and 49 CFR.
National cargo hubs explain commodity-specific questions for flatbed, reefer, dry van, hazmat, drayage, tanker, and intermodal freight. They sit on top of the baseline authority check — they do not replace it.
