Where does AlphaLoops get its trucking industry data?

AlphaLoops aggregates data from FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) public records, including carrier registrations, authority grants and revocations, safety records, inspection results, crash reports, and equipment registrations. We process and update this data regularly to provide a current view of the industry.

How often is the data updated?

Most datasets are updated monthly as new FMCSA data becomes available. Authority trends and carrier registrations are typically refreshed within a few weeks of FMCSA publication. The "Last updated" date shown on each page reflects the most recent data available.

Is this data free to use?

Yes — the Industry Data Hub is free to access. If you use this data for research, journalism, or media, we kindly ask that you cite AlphaLoops and link back to runalphaloops.com/data.

How many carriers does AlphaLoops track?

AlphaLoops tracks data on all FMCSA-registered motor carriers in the United States, including active, inactive, and revoked authorities. This covers millions of carriers across all 50 states.

What is the difference between the Data Hub and AlphaLoops's paid product?

The Data Hub provides aggregate industry statistics and trends — useful for research and market analysis. AlphaLoops's paid platform provides carrier-level intelligence including individual carrier profiles, contact information, technology stack data, and tools like CarrierMatch for prospecting and lead generation.

Can I export or download the data?

Each data category page includes an export option that lets you download the underlying data. For bulk data access or API integration, contact us about our enterprise data solutions.
