Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Every feature is free for every account, with no seat limits and no card required. MileVet is built on public FMCSA data. A desk can watch up to 200 carriers. Live lookups are rate-limited so the service stays available.

Where does the data come from?

Public FMCSA files: Company Census, roadside inspections, violations, inspection units, crashes, and MOTUS authority and insurance records. Each flag names its source.

Is the grade a safety rating?

No. It summarizes the public record with reasons you can check. It is not an FMCSA rating and is not a prediction of losses. See the method page.
