Every week, thousands of businesses cross a public trigger that creates a real insurance mandate — a new FMCSA DOT authority, a newly formed commercial entity. We normalize each event to its industry and the exact coverage it now needs, dedupe to one lead per business, and hand insurance & surety agents a fresh, high-intent list. Last refreshed 2026-06-22.
| Public trigger | Now legally/practically needs |
|---|---|
| New FMCSA DOT operating authority | Commercial auto liability (federally mandated, 49 CFR 387) + motor cargo + general liability |
| Newly formed commercial entity (contractor) | General liability + workers' comp + surety/license bond |
| Newly formed entity (salon, daycare, food, retail) | General liability + property/BOP + trade-specific lines |
The bond is the small ticket (~$150). The real money for an agent is the GL + commercial-auto cross-sell that attaches to the same business in its first weeks of operation.

Honest read: the underlying records are public. What you're buying is one place that absorbs many triggers, dedupes them to a single lead per business, maps each to mandated coverage, and ships it fresh every week — breadth, freshness, and dedup, not a secret database.
