I’ve been working on an automation that helps find verified shipper leads with direct contact details (email + phone). Instead of manually scraping databases or relying only on referrals, this automation gathers the information in an organized way so brokers/forwarders can focus more on outreach and closing loads rather than searching. The goal is to: - Save time on prospecting - Provide qualified shipper leads with verified contacts - Make it easier to build your shipper network consistently I’m curious – for those of you in freight brokerage / freight forwarding, do you see this kind of automation making a real difference in day-to-day operations? Would love to hear your thoughts!

What’s the most important point in the supply chain process to stop Freight Fraud? As a broker we always call the number for the carrier whose trying to book a load with us on the fmcsa website and ask for the dispatcher. Red Flags are No one answers They don’t have a dispatcher by that name They don’t have trucks in that area. Even if a carrier is validated in the many online platforms. No matter how legit everything looks from a carrier packet standpoint Calling the carriers listed phone number on the FMCSAs website and verifying the communicator is step one in protecting yourself from fraud. Anybody with any other tips?
