Pilots
Open-data pilots you can read before you send us anything
Each pilot starts from a question a fleet owner asks, uses public files with dates and sources, shows its formula and ends with what to do tomorrow. Nothing here comes from a customer. When a number is an example, it says so.
Hero: U.S. diesel, 104 weeks, EIA. The pilots start here.
Five pilots
Pilot 1
The fuel shock
Diesel went from $3.711 to $6.199 in 52 weeks (EIA). What it did to a 5 and a 20 truck fleet, and to the ten biggest corridors.
Files: EIA, FAF6, Census. Open data, retrieved Oct 9, 2026.
Pilot 2
Broker risk radar
23,797 active broker authority records, 2.5% with a revocation pending. Authority age, new-authority churn and broker bonds. Aggregates only, data through April 2026.
Files: FMCSA open files. Open data, retrieved Oct 9, 2026.
Pilot 3
The true cost of a mile
Three corridors (PA to NJ, MI to OH, CA to TX): fuel, recorded weather days and truck parking, plus your own costs.
Files: EIA, FAF6, NOAA, BTS. Open data, retrieved Oct 9, 2026.
Pilot 4
Your compliance month

Pilot 5
Money at risk, worked example
EXAMPLE VALUES. 120 invented loads through the audit engine: $29,485.09 at risk ($27,410.09 unpaid invoices, $2,075.00 detention), with a PDF evidence packet.
Files: Audit engine on a sample file. EXAMPLE VALUES, no real data.
How we label a pilot
- Open data, retrieved on a date. Built only from public files. No company names, no customer data.
- EXAMPLE VALUES. Invented numbers used to show the arithmetic. Never a real carrier, broker or amount.
- [estimate]. A placeholder you replace with your own figure.
What is not here yet
- No pilot built from a real customer's loads. That needs written consent first.
- No broker or carrier names, no DOT or MC numbers. The broker risk radar is aggregates only.
The Money at Risk example runs the audit engine on an invented loads file. Nothing in it is a real carrier, broker or amount.
Questions
Do the pilots use my data?
No. They use public files and, where marked, invented examples. Calculators run in your browser.
Can I get a pilot on my own loads?
The free audit does that for up to 20 loads. See how it works.
