Pattern-based check, not legal advice. It cannot read intent, and a clean result does not mean an agreement is safe.

Fee charged on fuel surcharge or accessorials

Upfront or add-on fees, and penalties for leaving

Exclusivity, auto-renewal and long notice periods

Non-compete and back-solicitation wording

Power of attorney and use of your authority

Dispatcher collecting your freight payments

Missing basics: exit clause, fee amount, load approval

Common questions

What does the dispatch agreement checker look for?

It scans the text you paste for wording patterns that commonly cause disputes: fees charged on fuel surcharge, upfront fees, exclusivity, auto-renewal, long notice, termination fees, non-compete or back-solicitation clauses, power of attorney, dispatcher-held freight payments, fees owed when the broker never pays, and one-sided liability. It also tells you which key protections are missing.

Can a good score guarantee the agreement is safe?

No. The check finds wording patterns, not intent, and it can miss things. A clean result is not legal advice. Read the whole agreement and have an attorney review anything that binds your truck or authority.

Is my contract stored anywhere?

No. The check runs entirely in your browser. The text you paste is not sent to our server and is not saved.

What should I do if my agreement has red flags?

Ask for the wording to be changed before you sign, using the suggestion under each flag. A reasonable dispatcher will agree to clear, written terms. If they refuse every change, treat that as a warning in itself.
