CarrierScore MCP Server

FMCSA motor-carrier risk intelligence for AI agents, over the Model Context Protocol.

CarrierScore answers "how risky is this carrier, and what was knowable about it on a given date?" for freight brokers and AI booking/dispatch agents. It builds longitudinal risk scores (0–100, higher = riskier) and timestamped carrier-selection evidence reports ("Montgomery files") from daily archives of public FMCSA / US DOT safety data: census, inspections, crashes, out-of-service orders, operating authority, and insurance filings.

Hosted endpoint (recommended)

No install needed — a hosted Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint is live:

https://mcp.carrierscore.io/mcp

Keyless requests get a rate-limited free tier (lookups, scores, text evidence reports). Paid tiers add carrier-list monitoring, structured JSON evidence reports, and higher volume — see pricing. Paid tiers authenticate with an X-API-Key header (or CARRIERSCORE_API_KEY when self-hosting).

Disclaimer

CarrierScore scores are computed statistical indicators built from public FMCSA data under a documented, transparent methodology (population percentiles plus hard flags). They are not safety fitness determinations, are not endorsed by FMCSA, and do not substitute for a carrier's official safety rating or your own judgment. Every score and evidence report embeds this disclaimer — retain it when storing or quoting results.
