Tenstreet Launches CarrierProtect to Give Freight Brokers Carrier Safety Visibility

Tenstreet launched CarrierProtect, a product that gives freight brokers visibility into carrier safety and compliance practices, the company said on October 26, 2026. The FinancialContent Business Page reported the launch. CarrierProtect groups individual metrics into quartiles to show how a carrier compares to its peers, and it supports vetting, training and compliance documentation.

How CarrierProtect Groups Carrier Metrics

CarrierProtect is built on 20 years of safety and compliance data from thousands of carriers of all sizes, according to the company. The product lets brokers vet how carriers hire drivers through work experiences, safety history and qualification records. It shows safety processes through ongoing training schedules and documented responses to unsafe driving. It assesses compliance practices by showing whether Driver Qualification Files are current and accurately reflect a carrier's active driver population. Brokers can document carrier selection decisions with a time-stamped record of the information considered.

Instead of reducing the information to a single safety score, CarrierProtect groups individual metrics into quartiles to show how a carrier compares to its peers while giving brokers visibility into the underlying data. The company said this approach provides brokers with several data points to justify their carrier decisions.

"Tenstreet has spent 20 years helping carriers make better decisions about the drivers they put on the road. CarrierProtect extends that visibility to brokers while giving compliant carriers opportunities to showcase effective safety practices," said Tim Crawford, CEO of Tenstreet. "By giving brokers a more complete picture of how carriers hire, train, and manage safety and compliance, we can create a more transparent transportation ecosystem."

The launch comes as carrier selection faces greater scrutiny following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II, LLC. The decision allows negligent-hiring claims against freight brokers to proceed under state law.

Tenstreet extends that visibility to owner-operators and small fleets through Pulse Fleet, a free solution built into Driver Pulse, the company's mobile app. Pulse Fleet helps smaller carriers manage driver files, documents, equipment, training and other day-to-day responsibilities, while sharing their safety and compliance practices with brokers through CarrierProtect.

Tenstreet's Driver Network and Earlier Moves

According to akta.pro company records, Tenstreet's Driver Pulse mobile app has over 480,000 active users each month, and more than 300,000 drivers have used Pulse in the last month. The records state that 85% of all active drivers have Pulse on their phones, and that over 5,800 carriers have signed up to be showcased on the Driver Pulse platform. The same records show a network of over 3 million truck drivers who use Tenstreet to job hunt, message recruiters, onboard and manage their careers.
