The $30M problem

Brokers are getting sued for the carriers they hire.

Negligent-selection juries don't care that you were busy. They want to see what you checked, when you checked it, and who signed off.

Today vs. tomorrow

Most brokerages "vet" with a screenshot and a sticky note.

What most brokers have today
  • • A SAFER screenshot in a folder somewhere
  • • A COI emailed three months ago
  • • A "yeah they're good" from the rep
  • • No record of who checked, when, or why
  • • Nothing a jury will accept as diligence
What BrokerShield gives you per load
  • Time-stamped FMCSA snapshot, frozen at booking
  • Severity-weighted diligence checklist
  • COI, W-9, packet attached as evidence
  • AI-graded notes that don't read like junk
  • Signed PDF, named vetter, immutable record
