No. CarrierOk's pricing page says the API is Sold separately, pay-as-you-go: free sandbox key, $50 to go live applied as $50 of credit, then per-request and per-carrier rates. VerifyCarrier includes the API on every account: 100 calls a month free, 1,000 on the $49 plan.
CarrierOk lists a 14-day free trial on Pro; credit card required. VerifyCarrier's trial is 7 days after email verification with no card and no automatic charge.
CarrierOk lists proprietary risk scoring with 50+ fraud signals, chameleon-carrier detection, policy-level insurance data with insurer names and lapse history, a Chrome extension, new-registrant sourcing and bulk data delivery. VerifyCarrier reports public FMCSA records, insurance filings, matched UCC history and census contact overlaps as evidence with source dates; it does not compute a fraud score.
Neither should. CarrierOk sells scores; VerifyCarrier shows the evidence and leaves the approval decision to you. Either way, confirm coverage with the insurer and record what you checked.
The public FMCSA checks to run before booking a load, whichever tool you use. Read the carrier vetting guide.
