FreshAuthority / Who it's for / New Carrier Leads for Freight Factoring Companies
Every carrier in the daily file just proved it intends to haul freight — and almost none of them have a factoring relationship on day one. FreshAuthority delivers every new authority FMCSA grants, by 6 AM ET, with phone, email, fleet size and what they haul, so your reps make the first call.
Counted from the FMCSA public file dated October 29, 2026 — for-hire motor carrier authority grants, September 30 – October 29, 2026. Refreshed as new files publish.
A carrier's first invoices start aging the week its authority goes active, while fuel and insurance are due now. That gap is the factoring sale — and it opens the morning the grant posts.
Power-units and cargo fields let you cut the national file to exactly your book: first-truck startups in your lanes, or fleets of five and up hauling the freight types you prefer.
The renewals file doubles as a win-back list: a carrier approaching its policy anniversary is also approaching its annual "review every vendor" moment — factor included.
Sort the daily grants by fleet size and cargo, and hand each rep a same-day call list of carriers with no factor yet — owner phone (cell-flagged) and email on every row.
Files land by 6:00 AM ET, up to three hours before services delivering around 8:00 AM Central. On a day-one decision, those hours are the pitch.
Plus Feeds expands the book watchlist to 5,000 carriers, with full change files — so you see insurance cancellations, revocations and contact changes on funded clients before they become losses.
Every State is $79/mo for all 6,193 grants in the last 30 days — about 1.3¢ per new carrier. One funded carrier pays for years of the feed.
Factoring is a retention business: the money isn't the first funded load, it's the client who stays. So run the math the way your CFO would — illustrative assumptions, stated plainly, and you can substitute your own:
A single-truck carrier factoring ~$12,000/month in invoices at a ~2.5% average factor rate produces about $300/month — ≈ $3,600/year — in factor revenue, for as long as the client stays.
That's $948/year for every new authority in the country, daily. One retained 1-truck client at the assumptions above covers roughly 3.8 years of the plan. A five-truck client covers decades.
Filter a month's file to the fleets you fund — say 300 rows survive your fleet and cargo cut. At a 1% close rate that's 3 new clients a month, ≈ $10,800/year each in run-rate revenue at the same assumptions, from a $79 line item.
These are illustrations, not results — invoice volume, rates and retention vary by factor and by carrier. The part that isn't an assumption: the grant counts are real (6,193 in the last 30 days), the rows carry the contacts, and the first 25 are free.
Every row carries the fields a factor actually filters on — no enrichment step, no second vendor. The reps who win new authorities don't call 6,193 carriers; they call the 300 that look like their book:
power_unitsSeparate the first-truck startups (fastest decisions, no incumbent factor, highest lifetime value per dollar of effort) from the 5–50 truck fleets your underwriters prefer. Sort descending when you want funded volume this quarter; ascending when you want day-one relationships.
cargo_or_equipmentGeneral freight, autos, produce, household goods, building materials — cut to the freight types your risk team already understands, and skip the rest without opening a single row by hand.
Run Every State and filter to your lanes, or take One State files for the regions your reps actually work. New grants are sorted newest first, so the morning's call list starts with carriers whose authority posted yesterday.
Phone is flagged cell when it matches the carrier's census cell-phone field — the number that reaches the owner-operator, not a switchboard. Email is the address the carrier filed with FMCSA. And the contact data is guaranteed: below 95% contactable in a file, that month is free.
Sixteen fields, insurer and BIPD effective date first: insurer name, policy effective date, legal name and DBA, USDOT and MC numbers, street/city/state/ZIP, phone (cell-flagged), email, power units, cargo/equipment, and the authority grant date. Three files in every plan — new grants daily, renewals due in 60 days, and lapsed liability — compiled fresh from FMCSA's public records on every run.
If fewer than 95% of rows in a file have a working phone or email, that month is free. Point us at the file, we check it against the filing data, and if it falls below 95% you don't pay for that month. In our October 29, 2026 build run, 99.97% of new-grant rows carried a phone or an email.
