- FMCSA Register: daily authority actions (applications, grants, revocations). The daily feed behind the 30-day grant counts.
- Company Census (MCS-150): contact fields, officers, power units, drivers, cargo, safety rating. Refreshed for 40,000 carriers a night, newest-changed first.
- SMS: inspections, out-of-service totals, BASIC measures, crashes (24 months). Fetched on demand and cached seven days.
