PollyAI alternative: a daily list of new authorities
Reviewed · Numbers are Rookiefeed analysis as of , updated daily
PollyAI is a lead database and CRM for trucking insurance agents, priced per state, with safety history, VIN-decoded equipment and insurance expiration dates. Rookiefeed does one narrower job: a 7am email and CSV of every carrier FMCSA granted authority the day before, with the owner's contacts and the insurer on file. Agents working renewals on established fleets get more from PollyAI.
Side by side
From each product's public pages on October 9, 2026. We didn't log in to a PollyAI account, so features inside the app may go beyond what the public pages say. Where a page doesn't say something, the table says so instead of guessing.
| PollyAI | Rookiefeed | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Trucking insurance agents, and any team that prospects motor carriers | Factoring reps, truck insurance agents and dispatchers |
| Carriers covered | FMCSA carriers by state, established and new; says it monitors new authorities "the moment they go active" | Carriers granted for-hire authority the previous day (brokers and new applications optional) |
| Contacts | Phone numbers; email and cell coverage not stated on the public pages | Officer names, phone with cells flagged, email (99.8% of recent grants), street address |
| Insurance | Insurance expiration dates (State Bundle) | Insurer, BIPD coverage and effective date from the FMCSA filing |
| Safety and equipment | VIN-decoded year, make and model; 24 months of roadside activity, crashes, out-of-service history | Equipment guess from registered cargo; no safety history |
| New-carrier fields | Not listed on the public pages | Days from application to grant, first-time or returning authority |
| Workflow | CRM pipeline, book of business tracking, Gmail and Outlook outreach | 7am email with a CSV, plus a dashboard; bring your own CRM |
| Price | $39 a month platform + $40 per state (State Bundle, 1 to 5 states); Outreach tier from $17 per state | $59 to $599 a month by states covered and how often |
| Terms | Month to month, no demo or sales call required | Month to month; 7-day trial of the State plan for $19 |
What each plan costs for one state
PollyAI's State Bundle is its full data tier and needs the $39 platform fee on top, so one state comes to $79 a month. Its Outreach tier, carrier data and bulk email without the CRM, starts at $17 per state. Volume pricing lowers the per-state rate from six states up.
| Plan | One state, per month | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| PollyAI Outreach | from $17 | Carrier data and marketing lists with bulk email; no CRM |
| PollyAI State Bundle | $79 ($39 platform + $40) | FMCSA marketplace, insurance expiration dates, VIN and vehicle data, fleet and cargo, CRM |
| Rookiefeed Weekly | $59 | That state's new MC authorities in one email with a CSV every Monday |
| Rookiefeed State | $149 | That state's new MC authorities every morning by 7am Central |
| Rookiefeed Regional | $299 for up to 8 states | Every morning, the states you pick |
When PollyAI is the better pick
- You're an insurance agent who mostly writes renewals on established carriers. Expiration dates are the field that drives that work, and we don't cover established carriers at all.
- You want to underwrite from the lead screen: VIN-level equipment, inspections, crashes and out-of-service history are on PollyAI's pages and not on ours.
- You want the CRM and the email outreach in the same tool as the data.
- Price per state matters most. For an agent licensed in one state, $79 for PollyAI's full tier is about half our daily State plan.
When Rookiefeed is the better pick
- You sell to brand-new carriers. We send all of them, 5,591 new for-hire authorities in the last 30 days nationally, the morning after the grant.
- You aren't an insurance agent. Factoring reps and dispatchers use the same list, and nothing in it assumes you quote policies.
- You want the insurer and BIPD already on file at the grant, the first-time flag and days from application to grant on every row.
- You already have a CRM or dialer and just want a clean CSV in your inbox each morning.
Using both
The two overlap less than the prices suggest. A new authority's first policy is already on file when the grant comes through, so an agent's openings on a brand-new carrier are a better price at renewal and the coverages the filing doesn't show. An agency can use a daily new-authority list to start the relationship early and a renewal database to time the quote. See new venture trucking insurance leads for how agents work the first weeks.

Questions
- How much does PollyAI cost?
- On October 9, 2026 PollyAI's pricing page listed a $39 monthly platform fee, the State Bundle from $40 per state a month on top of it (lower from six states), an Outreach tier from $17 per state, and custom Enterprise pricing for agencies with 10 or more producers. Plans are month to month.
- Is PollyAI only for insurance agents?
- It's built around them: the CRM tracks a book of business and the State Bundle adds insurance expiration dates. Its homepage also mentions any team that prospects motor carriers. Rookiefeed is built for factoring reps and dispatchers as much as for agents.
- Does Rookiefeed have insurance expiration dates?
- No. Each row has the insurer, BIPD coverage and effective date from the carrier's FMCSA filing at the time of the grant. For a new authority the effective date tells you roughly when the first policy renews, but we don't track established carriers or their renewals.
