Public-records extraction via SODA — not a scrape of SAFER HTML, not LinkedIn-enriched emails, not Motus MC-grant confirmation. Always verify on SAFER / L&I before quoting. Full provenance: About & how we source.

How it works

Three steps from public census to your CRM — you keep underwriting judgment.

State pack or ZIP-targeted list — same schema. Filter by phy_state for a full state, or phy_zip for a tighter book. $79/mo weekly seat for your ZIP set within one state; delivered every Monday by 9:00 AM PT; min one ZIP. Email hello@ for ZIP list orders.

Census pull

We query the public FMCSA Company Census File (az4n-8mr2) for your state: status A, AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE, ordered by recent add_date.

Weekly CSV delivery

Delivered every Monday by 9:00 AM PT for each subscribed state pack — same field schema nationwide. After two paid weeks, optional new-rows-only diffs vs the prior week.

You verify on SAFER

New USDOT ≠ active MC. Confirm authority and insurance on SAFER Company Snapshot and FMCSA Licensing & Insurance before you quote or bind.

Demo / illustrative only — invented USDOTs, names, phones (555), and @example.com emails. Multi-state schema preview · AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE · status A. Live product uses real FMCSA census (az4n-8mr2). New USDOT ≠ active MC authority.

Agency objections — answered honestly

Commercial-auto and trucking producers ask the same five questions of every DOT / FMCSA list vendor. Here are plain answers — no invented exclusivity, no Motus X-date claims.

New USDOT ≠ active MC

Correct. Census appearance is an early signal, not Motus grant confirmation. Confirm authority and insurance on SAFER / L&I before you quote. See New USDOT vs MC authority →

Contact quality

Phones and emails are as filed on the public census — not SMTP-checked, not LinkedIn-enriched. Filing services sometimes reuse one inbox across many USDOTs. Treat contacts as a starting point; verify reachability yourself.

Exclusivity

Not exclusive. Public FMCSA data is visible to other vendors and agencies. You are buying for-hire filtering, state scope, weekly cadence, CRM schema, and written provenance — not a private hand-raiser. For intent-exclusive web leads, expect marketplace pricing ($30–$65+), not a census subscription.

Freshness

Delivered every Monday by 9:00 AM PT, built from the public census (FMCSA ~24h lag). Product focus: AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE + state packs for agency books that do not need every private / specialty DOT.

Cancel anytime

Cancel future seat renewals anytime by email. Digital delivery is final once that week’s file is sent. Free demo sample before you buy. Schema/filter mismatch → re-delivery make-good only — all sales final →

Which signal do you need?

“DOT leads” covers several different FMCSA signals. Here is exactly which one we sell.

SignalWhat it meansDo we sell it?
New for-hire census appearanceCarrier just entered the FMCSA census as AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE, usually before its MC authority is activeYes — weekly, by state or ZIP set
MC authority grantOperating authority granted after insurance filings and BOC-3 are acceptedNo
Filed cancellation / X-dateAn existing account going back to marketNo

Weekly fits desks that work a new list every Monday and want one clean file per state. If you need same-day authority grants or cancellations, a different vendor is the better fit. More: New USDOT vs MC authority →

State pack or ZIP-targeted list — same schema. $79/state seats buy for-hire filtering + honest caveats — not Motus X-dates or exclusive intent leads.

SAFER verify disclaimer

Not insurance advice. New USDOT ≠ active MC authority. A newly appearing USDOT number in the FMCSA Company Census does not mean the carrier has an active motor-carrier (MC) authority, active insurance filings, or a bookable risk. Always confirm authority and insurance status on SAFER Company Snapshot and FMCSA Licensing & Insurance (L&I) before quoting or binding. NewDOT Leads is a public-records lead product — not a rating tool, and it does not promise insurability, creditworthiness, or contact reachability. Census data can lag (~24h per FMCSA). See also Terms and How we source.

FAQ

Where does the data come from?

The public FMCSA Company Census File (dataset az4n-8mr2 on data.transportation.gov), read via the SODA/API — not by scraping SAFER HTML. Per state: physical state filter, status A, AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE, ordered by recent add_date. Details on the About page.

Is a new USDOT the same as an active MC authority?

No. That is the most important caveat. Use SAFER and L&I to confirm operating authority and insurance before you quote. This product surfaces new census appearances; it does not certify Motus MC grants or insurance X-dates.

Do you cover every state?

Yes — all 50 U.S. state packs ship weekly nationwide. Browse the States directory. Same schema, same $79/mo seat pricing.

Can I buy a ZIP-targeted list instead of a full state pack?

Yes. State pack or ZIP-targeted list — same schema. We filter the same AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE census on phy_zip. Price: $79/mo weekly seat for your ZIP set within one state — same as a state pack. Delivered every Monday by 9:00 AM PT. Minimum one ZIP; email [email protected] with the ZIPs you want. All sales final after payment.

How fresh is the feed?

Delivered every Monday by 9:00 AM PT, built from the public census (FMCSA notes about a 24-hour database lag). After two paid weeks we can send new-rows-only files vs the prior week.

How good are the phone numbers and emails?

Contacts are as filed on the public census — not SMTP-verified and not LinkedIn-enriched. Filing services sometimes put their own email on many USDOTs. Treat filed contacts as starting points; verify reachability yourself and always check SAFER before quoting.

Can I call and email these carriers?

They are businesses listed in a public federal record. How you contact them is your decision and your responsibility. Federal and state rules on calling (including the TCPA), Do Not Call registries, and commercial email (CAN-SPAM) can apply to your outreach, and phone numbers are as filed, so some may be cell phones. Buyers are responsible for their own outreach compliance. This isn't legal advice; check with your own counsel.

Is pricing per state or national unlimited?

Per state pack. The $79/mo seat applies to each state you subscribe to. That keeps the model scalable as you add markets without forcing a national bundle you do not need.

What’s your purchase / cancel policy?

All sales are final after payment. Weekly seats: cancel future renewals anytime by email; the current paid period is not refunded once payment clears. Free demo sample before you buy. Schema/filter mismatch → re-delivery make-good only — see Billing.

Do you sell insurance or give insurance advice?

No. This is a data product for agencies and producers who already write commercial auto / trucking. You own underwriting judgment.

Can I see a sample before paying?

Yes — download the free 5-row demo sample (invented rows; not live carriers) with no form. Schema matches production. For real census rows, request a free 10-row live sample by email; we reply within one business day.

How do I pay?

Use the Start your seat button on any state page or in Pricing to check out with Stripe. Payments are processed by Stripe; the seat is month to month at $79, billed monthly, and you can cancel anytime by email to stop future billing. Prefer a payment link by email? Write to [email protected].

Who is this for?

P&C agencies and producers who market trucking, fleet, or owner-operator commercial auto and want early notice of newly filed for-hire carriers — one state or a multi-state book.

How agencies use this

Example use cases — not customer reviews. Illustrative workflows for commercial auto / trucking producers working weekly for-hire lists.

Example use case — not a customer review

Monday dial sheet from the weekly CSV

Import the state pack CSV each Monday (PT), filter to AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE, and hand producers a short list of new USDOT rows before competitors work a stale dump.

Example use case — not a customer review

ZIP-targeted territory, not a national firehose

Order a ZIP-filtered list for the counties you actually write. Same $79/mo seat economics as a state pack — weekly cadence, min one ZIP — so the desk works reachable geography only.

Example use case — not a customer review

Verify on SAFER before you quote

Treat every contact and authority field as as-filed. Spot-check USDOT / MC on SAFER before outreach so you never oversell inactive or non-for-hire carriers.

Example use case — not a customer review

Early notice on new AUTHORIZED FOR HIRE

Use new USDOT filings as early notice — not proof of active authority. Stack one or two state seats, keep schema stable for CRM import, and skip bloated “intent” feeds.
