- Safety performance
- Crash analysis

- Transportation-specific insights

03
Identify Risk Trends Before They Become Problems
See how a carrier's scores have changed over time across Unsafe Driving, Vehicle Maintenance, Hours of Service, and Crash. Historical trends give underwriters additional context so decisions aren't based on a single point-in-time snapshot.

Monitor safety trends
Track carrier performance over time to spot improving or declining patterns.
Identify changing risk patterns
Identify warning signs early and react before they affect an underwriting decision.
Use historical data to better understand carrier performance
Put current performance in context by reviewing how the carrier has changed over time.
04
Compare Carriers Against Similar Fleets
Evaluate a carrier against fleets of comparable size and cargo group. Overall, vehicle, and driver inspection violation and out-of-service rates are compared with peer averages, giving underwriters more relevant context than broad national benchmarks alone.
Compare Peer Fleets
Benchmark carriers against peers of similar size and cargo type for meaningful comparisons.
Evaluate Relative Risk
See where a carrier performs better or worse than average across each BASIC measure.
Improve Underwriting Confidence
Add peer context to every decision so strengths and concerns are clear before you quote.
Powered by Peer Benchmarking

05
Reveal Hidden Carrier Relationships
Chameleon surfaces shared information such as addresses, company representatives, phone and fax numbers, and email addresses that may connect a carrier to other entities. These are investigative signals worth a closer look, not conclusions on their own.

Shared Facilities
Identify physical locations linked to multiple carriers.
Shared Contacts
Identify common personnel across multiple carriers.
Shared Phone Numbers
Identify carriers that share phone numbers.
Relationship Intelligence
Surface potential relationships that may warrant further underwriting review.
