Automated Carrier Vetting with Turvo

Verify authority, insurance, and fraud risk on every carrier before you tender a load. Built for how Turvo actually moves. This is exactly the kind of high-volume, rules-based work that a purpose-built AI agent handles better than a busy desk — and it’s what FastFreight’s Dispatch Agent was built to do.

The problem with manual carrier vetting

Manual carrier vetting is the last line of defense against double-brokering and fraud — but under load pressure, checks get rushed or skipped entirely. Even collaborative TMS platforms like Turvo still leave the repetitive judgment calls to your reps.

How the agentic workflow runs

The Dispatch Agent is the primary actor, but it does not operate in isolation. A load event, inbox message, status change, or scheduled check triggers the workflow; the agent reads context from Turvo, FMCSA, Carrier monitoring, and Your TMS, applies your operating rules, and hands exceptions or high-impact decisions to a person.

1. 1Runs an FMCSA authority and operating-status check on each carrier.
2. 2Verifies active insurance and required endorsements.
3. 3Scores fraud and double-brokering risk against known signals.
4. 4Approves low-risk carriers and holds risky ones for review.

What you get

• Block double-brokering and fraud before tendering
• Enforce authority and insurance rules on every load
• Vet carriers in seconds without slowing coverage

The point of automating carrier vetting is not to replace your reps — it is to hand the repetitive, rules-based portion to the Dispatch Agent so your people spend their time on relationships, negotiation, and the exceptions that actually need judgment.

Works with your existing stack

No rip-and-replace. This automation connects to Turvo, FMCSA, Carrier monitoring, and Your TMS and layers onto the tools your team uses today, so carrier vetting improves without a migration project.

How FastFreight implements this workflow

1. 1Map the current carrier vetting SOP, including triggers, decisions, handoffs, and exception paths.
2. 2Connect Turvo, FMCSA, Carrier monitoring, and Your TMS and identify the source of truth for every required field.
3. 3Configure authority limits, service rules, escalation thresholds, and human approval points for the Dispatch Agent.
4. 4Launch on a controlled set of live freight, review the audit trail, and compare outcomes with the current process.
5. 5Tune the workflow and expand coverage only after the agent consistently performs inside the approved guardrails.

FastFreight provides both the agent platform and the implementation work. Dispatchers, carriers, and brokers supply the operating knowledge; our team translates it into a connected, governed workflow and continuously improves it as the operation changes.
