Here's exactly how Compass works under the hood — and why "AI for compliance" is different when the corpus is open-source.
Email, carrier name, DOT number (optional), state, truck count. 60 seconds. No card on Free.
Carrier name. Contact email + phone. DOT/MC number (if you have one). State of operation. Number of trucks. That's it. You can add drivers later.
Creates an isolated workspace for your carrier. Sets up the compliance calendar for federal events (UCR window, 2290 deadline, MCS-150 biennial timing based on your DOT#). You're ready to ask questions.
Drag and drop your driver roster. Compass parses it, creates a record per driver, kicks off the watch on every expiry date.
First name, last name, CDL number, CDL state, CDL expiry, medical-card expiry. Optional: email, phone, hire date, DOB.
The moment a driver record lands with a CDL or medical date, Compass schedules SMS + email reminders at 30 / 14 / 7 / 1 day intervals. Driver gets a copy. Carrier admin gets a copy. Nothing falls through.
Download our CSV template. Fill it in once. Drop it in. We map columns automatically. 50 drivers imported in 90 seconds.
Compass works without integrations. With them, it gets stronger.
HOS data + harsh events + driver scorecards.
Pre-employment + random + post-accident lab results.
Pre-employment background screenings.
Annual MVR pulls per CDL state.
Pre-employment + annual + return-to-duty.
IFTA-ready transaction logs.
Self-serve subscription + Customer Portal.
SMS + email reminders, TCPA-compliant.
Six workflows, infinite questions. Every answer cites 49 CFR.
Open the chat. Type a question or pick a workflow. Compass routes to the right model (Haiku for simple, Sonnet for complex, Opus for high-stakes) and grounds on relevant skills from the 100-skill corpus.
If Compass cites 49 CFR 382.701, you can click that citation. It opens the relevant skill on GitHub. You verify. You contest if needed. No black box.
The agent knows your carrier name, your drivers, your equipment, your recent events. So "draft a coaching for John Smith's lane change" doesn't require you to re-explain who John is or what his job is.
