Built for carriers who want to know, act, and stay ahead. Because your safety record can affect your insurance, your broker relationships, and your business. Know your record. Understand your risk. Stay ahead of what comes next. Your safety record. Your business. Your advantage.

No card. No sales call. Your score in under a minute — we email a 6-digit code to the address on your FMCSA record.

The Scale Clear home screen: a company strip, a pull-in score, seven category scores against their thresholds, and the inspection record.
This carrier's pull-in score is 88. Scales are told to inspect them. Three categories are past the line — and one clean check would move one of them under it.
01 — Why you get pulled in

The scale decides in seconds. It never tells you why.

Every scale runs your DOT number against a score before you reach the window. Under 50, you're waved through. Over 75, you're pulled in. FMCSA doesn't publish that score, and most carriers have never seen theirs.

The pull-in score card: 88 out of 100, in the inspect band.
The pull-in score. 0 to 100, in the three bands the scale uses. Updated every day FMCSA posts.
Seven categories, each with its percentile and the line FMCSA measures it against.
Seven categories against the line. Where you stand in each one, and the line FMCSA measures you against. Red is over.
Every write-up on the record with its date, category, points today and the day it steps down.
Every write-up, priced. What each one is costing today, and the exact day it steps down.
02 — What it's costing you

What every write-up is costing you, and the day it stops.

A write-up counts against you for two years — three times as heavily for the first six months, twice for the next six, then once, then gone. FMCSA does the arithmetic. It just never shows you.

The violations screen: seven categories against their thresholds on a dark panel, then the 24-month inspection record.
Each category, with its score, the line, and how many write-ups sit in it. Tap one to see just those.
The Fading Next card: 74 days until nine write-ups drop to 2x weight.
Nine write-ups from one stop drop to 2× weight on Nov 28. That's the next day this carrier's score moves without them doing anything.
03 — Before the renewal

What the underwriter sees.

Your insurance renewal is priced off the same record. The underwriter sees things SAFER doesn't show you — other DOT numbers tied to yours, your out-of-service rate against the national average, how you compare to carriers your size. You find out when the quote comes back higher. See it first.

Send them the page instead of the phone call.

When a client's SAFER page looks bad, you're the one who has to explain it. Scale Clear is the page you'd build for them if you had the time: their score, why, and what to do. Send the link. Their free account is free.

Questions

Is this my CSA score?
No. FMCSA doesn't publish a single score. Scale Clear estimates the score a scale uses to decide who to inspect, from the same public inspection data FMCSA scores you on. It's an estimate, and we say so on every page.
I can see my record on FMCSA's site for free. What's different?
You can see the inputs. You can't see the pull-in score, the points each write-up is costing, or the day each one fades. FMCSA doesn't publish those. Try the free account and compare.
How current is it?
Updated every day FMCSA posts. The date is on every page.
Will this lower my insurance?
We don't promise that. We show you what the underwriter sees, so you know before the quote does.
What does full access cost?
It depends on your fleet. The free account is free forever; for the rest, talk to us.
