Carrier and driver pricing

HotshotUnited pricing built around real hotshot operations.

Owner/operators pay by active driver count and get the carrier workspace, documents, compliance workflows, messaging, and HotshotUnited loadboard access. Drivers can still log in free when their carrier invites them, with optional paid loadboard and Bailout-ready tools for independent drivers.

HotshotUnited pricing and operations overview
Carrier billing is based on active driver seats. Terminated and archived drivers do not count. The owner-driver counts only when actively driving under the business.

For carriers and owner/operators

These plans include loadboard access for the carrier workspace, plus the onboarding and document controls needed to manage drivers after the load is booked.

How HotshotUnited handles loadboard access

Hotshot-specific filters

Focus on hotshot, flatbed, step-deck, truck type, trailer type, lane, and rate data that matters to 16k-class owner/operators.

Legal aggregation first

Developer-friendly board integrations come first. HotshotUnited will not build the product on DAT or Truckstop scraping.

Automation roadmap

Future alerts can help drivers act on their own board accounts without HotshotUnited republishing restricted board data.

Bailout-ready driver intake

For 2024 or newer trucks stuck in a shop, Driver Pro prepares the intake path for title or lender information, temporary power-of-attorney paperwork, key-copy handling, mechanic details, approval review, repayment schedule, and signed default terms. Assistance is approval-only and any default or forfeiture terms must be disclosed in the signed agreement before work begins.

  • Truck must be 2024 or newer.
  • Driver submits lender/title, key, mechanic, shop, and payoff details.
  • HotshotUnited review and repayment agreement are separate from the subscription.
  • No bailout funds or shop release support starts without signed documents.
