HauLens · Carrier Lookup & Load Replies for Brokers

HauLens is the free Gmail sidebar for freight brokers. Open a carrier email and the carrier is already vetted against FMCSA records, your matching load is already found, and the reply is already drafted. You review and send. Carrier vetting, MC and DOT lookup, authority and insurance checks, sender verification, and a load board that answers your own emails: all inside Gmail, all whileyou read, nothing to switch to. ★ WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A CARRIER WRITES TO YOU ✓ HauLens spots the MC or DOT number in the subject, the body, or the signature. ✓ The carrier's public FMCSA and US DOT record opens beside the email. ✓ The sender is checked against the contact FMCSA has on file for that carrier. ✓ Your open load that matches the lane, date, and equipment is found. ✓ A reply with your load details, pickup window, and rate is waiting one click away. ★ THE CARRIER RECORD, WHILE YOU READ ✓ Authority: status, when it was granted, and whether it is under a year old. ✓ Insurance: liability on file versus what the load requires, cargo when filed, cancellations on file, and brand-new coverage on a brand-new carrier. ✓ Safety: rating, inspections, out-of-service rates against the national average, and crashes. ✓ Fleet: power units and drivers, so a two-truck carrier quoting ten loads a day stands out. ✓ The full FMCSA record, one click away. ✓ One "HauLens review" line sums it up: no red flags found in the sources checked, verify before booking, or manual review recommended. HauLens reports the evidence. The booking decision stays yours. ★ WHO IS ACTUALLY WRITING TO YOU Most double brokering starts with a real carrier's MC number in someone else's email. The record can look clean because it is somebody else's record. ✓ The sender's address is compared with the email and domain FMCSA has on file for the carrier. ✓ The age of the sender's domain is shown, so a fifteen-year-old carrier writing from a domain registered last month is visible at a glance. ✓ A warning bar appears under the composer when the carrier you are about to reply to needs a closer look. ★ YOUR LOAD BOARD, MATCHED TO EVERY EMAIL ✓ Add loads by hand, or import your board from Excel, Google Sheets, CSV, or DAT-style postings, with a column mapper and a shareable template. ✓ Every carrier email is matched against your open loads by lane, date, equipment, and reference number. ✓ Twin lanes with different reference numbers are grouped, and the reference in the email picks the right one. ★ REPLY IN ONE CLICK ✓ A chip beside Gmail's Reply button, and inside the reply box, drafts the reply-all with your load details, pickup window, and rate, in your own template wording. ✓ A carrier's quoted rate becomes a Counter chip and can be tracked as an offer on the load. ✓ "What do you have out of Texas?" gets a one-click list of your matching loads. ★ RUN THE BOARD WITH YOUR TEAM ✓ Mark loads covered or inactive to keep the list clean; search brings them back for reuse. ✓ A daily reminder for loads whose pickup date has passed. ✓ Offers, quotes, and statuses live on the load, not in your head. ✓ Share the board with your team: assignments, private loads, and sync across devices. ★ WHERE THE DATA COMES FROM FMCSA and US Department of Transportation public records, retrieved when you open the email and dated on the card. FMCSA stays the record of authority. No score is invented and no rate is guessed: matching and drafting follow fixed rules and run on your computer. PRIVACY The text of your emails never leaves your browser. Matching and drafting happen locally. HauLens does not use the Gmail API and asks for no permission to read, send, What reaches our servers: your sign-in identity, the MC or DOT numbers you look up, the sender's domain, and the loads you enter. No advertising, no third-party tracking. Full policy: https://haulens.ai/privacy HOW TO USE IT 1. Install the extension and open Gmail. 2. Sign in with Google from the HauLens panel.
