Hire a compliant driver in under 24 hours.
Run FMCSA-grade background checks — MVR, PSP, criminal history and drug screening — the moment an application comes in. X3 ranks your applicants, builds the compliant driver-qualification file, and keeps every driver monitored so a new violation never slips past you.
FMCSA-grade checks · §391 driver-qualification file built for you · continuous monitoring.
One bad hire can fail your next audit.
Hiring is where compliance starts — and where most carriers get burned. A missing MVR, an incomplete driver-qualification file, a skipped pre-employment drug test or Clearinghouse query, and one new hire becomes an audit finding. X3 runs every check the moment an application arrives, ranks your applicants, assembles the §391 DQ file, and monitors every driver so a new violation never slips past you.
Everything to hire a compliant driver — in one place.
Run the checks, build the file, rank the applicants and monitor every driver. Here’s what you get:
MVR, PSP, criminal history, SSN trace and drug screen — ordered in one click and returned fast.
Assembles the §391.51 DQ file automatically as results land — nothing missing, audit-ready.
Every applicant scored and ranked on fit and risk, so you interview the best drivers first.
Send a link; the driver enters their own info and consents — you get a complete file, no data entry.
MVR and Clearinghouse watched after hire — a new violation flags the day it posts.
FCRA pre- and final adverse-action letters handled for you when a candidate can’t be cleared.
The right check package for the role and state, priced up front — no surprises.
Ask any hiring, DQ-file or background-check question and get a grounded, cited answer.

Step-by-step to a compliant, cleared-to-hire driver — nothing skipped.
Order checks à la carte — or monitor your whole roster.
Pay per check with no subscription, or add continuous monitoring at a flat $7 per driver / month — no bloated tiers. Every account includes the applicant ATS, the §391.51 DQ-file builder, the Package Advisor and the 12-agent AI crew — free.
PSP is ordered alongside a package, priced at the FMCSA pass-through fee, and returned as a “Review” result you adjudicate — it is pre-hire only and not part of continuous monitoring.
Prices in USD and indicative. Background-check fees include a Checkr pass-through billed at cost; PSP adds the FMCSA fee. X3 Background is an FCRA-regulated service — consent and adverse-action steps are built in; this is not legal advice.
