https://mcp.tattoo.foundation/mcpcarrier_insurance_statusCarrier insurance statusFMCSA insurance filings for a carrier — active 91X auto liability and other filing types — with insurer, coverage amount, and dates. Flags if no active insurance is on record.
carrier_revocation_historyCarrier authority historyFull authority-history timeline for a carrier (revocations, grants, suspensions, transfers, etc.) by USDOT number. Returns event-type breakdown and a chronological timeline. Useful for spotting chameleon-carrier patterns and prior revocations.
carrier_safety_historyCarrier crash & inspection historyCrash record and roadside inspection history for a carrier by USDOT number. Returns crash totals (fatalities, injuries, tow-aways, hazmat), out-of-service rates vs national averages, violations broken down by BASIC category, and recent event lists. 24-month inspection window per FMCSA SMS methodology.
carrier_safety_scoresCarrier BASIC safety scoresComputed BASIC safety percentiles for a carrier by USDOT number — Unsafe Driving, HOS Compliance, Driver Fitness, Controlled Substances, Vehicle Maintenance, Hazmat Compliance. FMCSA SMS-style scores computed independently from public inspection data; flags intervention-threshold breaches. Percentile 0-100, higher = worse.
h2b_trucking_employersH-2B trucking employer applicationsEvery verdict is attributable to its sources and recomputed from our own landed copy, never read live on this page.
DOL H-2B labor disclosure data filtered to trucking SOC codes (53-30xx). Filterable by state, SOC code, fiscal year, and employer name. H-2B is visa-tied employment, structurally close to debt bondage; the TATTOO Foundation surfaces this for driver protection and labor-coercion pattern detection.
lookup_carrierLook up a carrierVerify a US commercial trucking carrier by USDOT number or legal/DBA name. Returns identity, fleet size, authority status, insurance, recent authority events, and red flags. Data sourced from the FMCSA SAFER census, donated to the TATTOO Foundation by Carso Cybernetics from the SuperTrucker platform.
