Who it’s for
You book carriers you don’t know.
This is built for you.
Freight brokers, 3PLs, asset-based carriers with brokerage arms and enterprise teams all get the same thing: a clear answer on every carrier, and fewer lost loads. Here’s what that means for yours.
Freight brokers
Know who’s really behind the MC number.
You book carriers you’ve never met, on loads that leave in hours. The one that burns you usually looks clean, because the record is real and the person using it isn’t.
What you get
- A clear answer on every carrier. OK to book, Needs your review or Do not book, with the reasons in plain words and an evidence PDF.
- Less chasing. Type the MC number. We work through the owner, the insurance source, the dispatcher and the driver for you.
- A carrier’s past, from day one. Dated phone, email and insurance changes from FMCSA public-record history. A number that changed three weeks ago is the first thing you see.
- Insurance straight from the source. We get the certificate from the source, not from the carrier. One insurance profile per carrier shows coverage gaps at a glance.
- Theft caught in motion. Flags for the wrong phone, an internet-calling number, a faked location or a truck far from pickup. The pickup number waits until the verified phone is tracking.
- No re-typing. Turn a tender into a draft load, and bill from the load. A customer portal cuts the “where’s my load?” calls.
The MC looked fine. The number it used to have said no.
3PLs
Every desk runs the same check.
More desks, more reps, maybe more branches. The desk with the hot load shouldn’t be the one that skips the vetting.
What you get
- The same process on every desk. A verification isn’t finished until every party has answered: owner, insurance source, dispatcher, driver.
- One standard, company-wide. The same score and the same rules at every branch, so nobody has to remember who checked what.
- The right access for each person. Choose what each teammate can see and do, module by module, and require two-step login for the whole company.
- Your brand on what carriers see. Your logo and color on portal pages, e-sign pages, PDFs and every email we send.
- The back office in one place. CRM, commissions, invoicing, 20+ reports and QuickBooks Online, with what needs attention surfaced first.
Asset-based carriers with brokerage arms
Your trucks and your brokered loads, in one system.
You run your own drivers and equipment, and broker freight when the board overflows. That’s your own compliance on one side and other people’s fraud on the other.
What you get
- Every outside carrier verified. The load you hand off gets the same checks a brokerage would run: owner, insurance source, dispatcher and driver.
- Fleet records that warn you first. Driver profiles, hours of service from Samsara, Motive or Geotab, trucks, trailers, maintenance, inspections and document expiry alerts.
- Tracking without the fight. Drivers get a link by text, with no account to create and pages in Spanish. The Happy Tactic Driver app for Android adds background GPS, once the driver agrees.
- A dispatch board with the map inside it. Live positions on the board, ETAs that allow for driver breaks, and invoicing that can wait until the POD is on file.
- The money side, closed out. Settlements, pay runs, checks, claims, any fuel card by file import, and QuickBooks Online.
Your trucks and other people’s trucks, on one screen.
Enterprise
When someone asks, prove you checked.
A security review before procurement talks price, and a carrier policy that has to hold across regions and staff turnover. A claim or an audit asks what your records show.
What you get
- Proof behind every decision. Every verdict comes with an evidence PDF, finding by finding, and verification records stay on file.
- A record you can trust. A tamper-evident e-sign trail, and an audit log of who did what and when.
- Straight answers for security review. Sensitive data is encrypted, and your company’s data stays your company’s.
- Control that scales. SSO, module-by-module permissions and two-step login for the whole company.
- A plan built around you. Volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, custom contracts and an API for your own systems.
Brokers, 3PLs, fleets, enterprise. A clear answer on every carrier.
Questions
What teams ask first.
We’re a two-person brokerage. Is this too much?
No. Hotshot is $150 a month with 2 seats: the full verification suite, pay as you go, no TMS to learn. When you want to run loads here too, Regional at $299 adds the full TMS with 15 verifications included.
Which plan fits which operation?
Hotshot at $150 a month is verification only, with 2 seats. Regional at $299 adds the full TMS, with 15 verifications included and 5 seats. Linehaul at $499 (30 included, 10 seats) and Fleet at $750 (50 included, 15 seats) scale it up, with priority support and advanced risk rules. Enterprise is custom: volume pricing, SSO and a dedicated account manager. Every plan runs the same verification.
We already have a TMS. Can we run just the verification side?
Yes, and an API can push results into your systems. The verdict does the most inside our dispatch board, where an expired verification blocks booking and Do not book stands until a person overrides it with a written reason. Move dispatch over whenever you’re ready. Nothing forces the switch.
Do our carriers and drivers need accounts?
No. The owner interview, e-signing, tender acceptance, driver photos and tracking all run on secure links. No carrier or driver ever creates a Happy Tactic password.
We’re asset-based and rarely broker freight. What’s here for us?
The fleet and tracking side stands on its own: driver and equipment records with expiry alerts, hours of service from your ELD, the dispatch board, driver check-ins by text, settlements and QuickBooks Online. Verification is there for the day the board overflows.
