Changelog

Your FMCSA record: FMCSA's monthly public SMS data for your USDOT, with FMCSA's date. Freight carriers can add their private percentiles from their FMCSA login. Bus and motorcoach carriers get theirs filled in.

The 0–100 score drivers see in their app is now called their Driving score. It's built from telematics events, and it isn't FMCSA's.

IFTA quarterly filing is now priced by plan: $45 a quarter on Starter, $95 on Professional, $145 on Business, $195 on Enterprise. Flat within your plan, never a percentage, never per truck — and filing it yourself stays free on every plan. The plan already scales with fleet size, so the filing fee rides that rather than adding a second per-truck curve on top.

Government money now goes straight from you to the agency. Dockex charges its own filing fee and nothing else — the Form 2290 heavy-use tax goes to the IRS, the UCR fee to the UCR system, and IFTA fuel tax to your base jurisdiction, all paid by you directly. We still do the whole filing; we just never hold the government's money. Oklahoma registration and title fees now work the same way — there is no exception any more.

IFTA returns rebuilt end to end: a jurisdiction schedule that reconciles line by line including surcharge and interest, per-unit mileage you can edit instead of re-keying, a documents shelf, a full timeline, and a four-step review before anything is filed.

IFTA exceptions. Odometer gaps, fuel purchases with no state, unrecognised VINs and rejected import rows now surface as findings you can resolve or dismiss, each with a note on the record. They used to be dropped silently, which meant a return could file short with nothing on screen to say why.

Quarters you have not started yet appear in the list with their deadline, instead of staying invisible until someone remembers to open one. Multi-fuel fleets can now file the second return a quarter requires, and a quarter with no trucks running files as a no-operation return.

Form 2290 self-serve filing: enter your truck and get the return prepared in-app on any plan — file it yourself for free, or Dockex files it for you for a flat $25 and your Schedule 1 lands in your account once the IRS processes it. The heavy-use tax goes to the IRS from you, never through Dockex.

UCR self-serve filing: size your fleet to the right tier and get the application pre-filled in-app on any plan — file it yourself for free, or Dockex files it for you for a flat $45. The UCR fee goes to the UCR system from you, never through Dockex.

Construction fleet support: a dedicated walkthrough plus an "Am I DOT-regulated?" quiz for mixed on-road and off-road equipment.

Comparison pages: side-by-side breakdowns vs Fleetio, Samsara, Motive, Geotab, Verizon Connect, and J.J. Keller — every claim sourced to a live URL, with the methodology published in full.

Rewrote the legal pages — Terms, Privacy, Security — into a clean document reader, with the exact federal vs Oklahoma filing scope stated plainly.

Smart compliance score: an adaptive score built from your real FMCSA, filing, and fleet data — it tells you what's actually putting you at risk, in plain English.

FMCSA CSA sync: pulls your 7 CSA BASIC scores from FMCSA daily and alerts you when one crosses the intervention threshold. Correction (Oct 2026): this never returned real numbers. It's been taken out.

Telematics integrations: connect Geotab, Samsara, or Motive for live GPS and fault codes — Samsara and Motive also bring HOS logs and IFTA miles.

Live sandbox: spin up a fully-seeded 28-vehicle demo fleet in about 20 seconds — no signup, no sales call.

Free tools, no login: HVUT (Form 2290) calculator, DQ file completeness checker, CSA score lookup by USDOT, IFTA calculator, and an IRP fee estimator.

IFTA rate freshness: every quarterly rate now carries a verified, preliminary, or estimated status flag, with an Oregon Weight-Mile Tax callout where it applies.

Security hardening pass across the platform — cross-tenant isolation, strict content-security-policy, token rotation, and open-redirect fixes.

Driver qualification files (§391.51): manager and driver self-service DQ files, with one-click audit-packet export for a DOT review.

Maintenance, rebuilt: work orders, parts inventory with auto-reorder, tire tracking, warranties, and service-due scheduling by mileage and time.

DOT pre-trip inspections from any phone — voice memos, signature capture, and rule-based defect flagging from your voice notes (keyword-based, not AI) on the FMCSA checklist.

NHTSA recall checks: auto-checks recalls by VIN and opens a work order when one lands. Update, October 2026 — NHTSA's recall data feed is searched by make, model and model year, not by VIN, so checks now match each truck's make, model and model year. A recall doesn't always cover every truck of a model year, so a match shows as "may apply" until someone on your team checks the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls and confirms it. Only a confirmed recall counts against the truck, and you book the repair from there.

Photo-to-VIN: drop a registration card and Dockex reads the VIN to auto-fill a new vehicle.

PDF & CSV exports: driver HOS logs, driver scorecards, customer invoices, and roster exports for vehicles, drivers, and maintenance schedules.

Cost-per-mile and replacement signals added to fleet reporting.

IRP registration filing: prepare and submit apportioned registration applications for Oklahoma-based fleets.

IFTA quarterly return preparation: automated calculation of net tax due or refundable per jurisdiction using current rate tables.

Fleet management dashboard: add, manage, and track all vehicles in your fleet with VIN, weight class, fuel type, and registration data.

CSV vehicle import: bulk-load your fleet using a structured CSV template (up to 500 vehicles per batch).

Compliance calendar: automated deadline tracking for IFTA quarterly returns (Jan 31, Apr 30, Jul 31, Oct 31) and IRP renewal dates.

Document storage: upload and manage titles, registration certificates, and proof of insurance per vehicle, stored in encrypted AWS S3.

Role-based access control: fleet operators and administrators each operate within scoped permission boundaries.

PDF export: generate exportable PDF returns for all IFTA quarterly filings and IRP Schedule A/B documents for your records or auditors.
