How do I find new carriers on FMCSA?

FMCSA publishes new registrations and authority grants continuously, but it publishes them as raw register files rather than as a list you can work. Reading them yourself means downloading the daily FMCSA files, joining registrations to the authority actions that follow, and doing it again tomorrow.

CarrierOk does that part. Every new USDOT registration and every new operating authority lands in the directory the day FMCSA publishes it, joined to the carrier's contact details and filings, so the FMCSA new carrier list is a filter you save rather than a file you rebuild. Filter it by state, fleet size, authority type, and whether insurance is on file yet, and the app counts what is new each time you come back.

See only the new carriers you actually want to call.

New registrations are mostly one-truck operations. Filter by fleet size, authority type, cargo, and insurance on file, and what is left is worth a phone call.

Coverage follows what each carrier filed with the FMCSA, so some records are missing a field. Derived intelligence, including BASIC percentiles, ISS, risk signals, and VIN-decoded equipment, is part of the platform and the API.

Work this week's registrants without rebuilding the list.

Save the segment once. The app tells you how many new carriers have matched it since you last looked, and your notes on the ones you called stay with them.

Lists, tags, and a stage per list

Group them your way, label them in your own words, and track where each one sits in your process.

Notes and an activity timeline

Every note, call, and export is recorded against the record, so the next person to open it sees what already happened.

Saved views that count what changed

Save a search and the app tells you how many new matches have appeared since you last looked.

Bring the book you already have

Import a CSV of DOT, MC, or EIN numbers and the app matches them to the record, handing back anything it could not match.

The first call gets the account.

A new carrier buys insurance, factoring, fuel, and technology in its first weeks, and mostly from whoever reached it first.

Insurance and factoring

Reach a carrier while it is still choosing, not at its first renewal.

Fuel and equipment

Segment by declared fleet and cargo to find the ones worth a call.

Freight technology

Onboard new authorities before they settle into someone else's stack.

New Registrants FAQ

CarrierOk is a carrier intelligence platform whose directory indexes every FMCSA registrant. It consolidates the FMCSA record on any motor carrier or broker and adds the scoring FMCSA does not publish: all 7 BASIC percentiles, a computed ISS score, 50+ named risk signals, and policy-level insurance history, with monitoring that reports changes the same day. The same record is delivered however you consume it: the directory and the web app, a REST API, a Chrome extension, or bulk files.
FMCSA grants roughly 200 to 400 new operating authorities every business day. In 2026-08, the last complete month, it granted 5,583, about 266 a business day. New USDOT registrations run higher: 15,987 numbers were issued in the trailing 30 days. Measured September 10, 2026.
FMCSA publishes new registrations and authority actions continuously, in raw register files rather than as a list. CarrierOk ingests them as they publish and joins them to each carrier's contact details and filings, so the daily FMCSA new carrier list is a saved filter you return to rather than a file you download and reconcile.
From the registration record itself. Every carrier files its contact details with the FMCSA, and new registrants file them at the moment they enter the market. Filter by how recently authority was granted, fleet size, cargo, and whether insurance is on file yet, and what is left is a list worth calling.
The same day it publishes. CarrierOk watches the FMCSA sources and re-ingests as they post rather than on a fixed schedule, so a carrier registered today is searchable today.
The primary contact, phone, cell, email, website, and both physical and mailing addresses, as filed. Coverage follows what the carrier filed, so a few records are missing a field.
Yes. Filter on BIPD on file and coverage amounts to separate registrants who have completed their filings from those who have only reserved a number.
Yes. The API returns the consolidated profile for any carrier, and teams that want the whole universe delivered take the daily bulk drop instead.
