What is Missing Asset Detection? Missing Asset Detection is an automated security feature provided by the meshVI and Catena Clearing partnership. It cross-references real-time telematics and ELD signals with active insurance schedules to identify uninsured vehicles or unlisted drivers in real-time.
CHARLOTTE, NC — January 15, 2026 — meshVI, the leader in active policy operations, today announced a strategic partnership with Catena Clearing to solve one of the most persistent and costly risks in the freight industry: the “Missing Asset.” By integrating Catena’s real-time fleet signals into the meshVerified platform, meshVI now provides an automated shield against the uninsured vehicles and unlisted drivers that lead to catastrophic claim denials.
As freight markets demand higher levels of transparency, the gap between a carrier’s actual operations and their static insurance documentation has become a multi-million dollar liability. This partnership closes that gap by transforming passive data into an active defense system.
Eliminating “Ghost” Risk with Real-Time Detection
The centerpiece of this collaboration is a dedicated focus on Missing Asset Detection. Traditional verification methods often miss vehicles added to a fleet mid-policy or drivers operating without proper vetting—creating “ghost” risks that leave brokers, shippers, and carriers exposed.
Through the integration of Catena’s universal data API, meshVerified now offers:
- Real-Time Vehicle Matching: Automatically identifies any truck generating ELD signals that does not appear on the current VIN-level insurance schedule, flagging coverage gaps before a wheels-up event.
- Driver-Level Verification: Cross-references live driver assignments with verified insurance rosters to ensure every operator meets specific underwriting criteria and safety standards.
- Automated Fraud Mitigation: Continuously monitors for “unlisted assets” and anomalous behavior, providing a real-time audit trail that proves a carrier is operating exactly as insured.
Turning Compliance into Competitive Velocity
Beyond risk mitigation, the ability to prove a “clean” fleet in real time allows carriers to move faster. By eliminating the manual back-and-forth of document verification, meshVerified users gain a “Fast Pass” through broker checkpoints.
“The industry’s greatest hidden risk is the ‘missing asset’—the truck or driver everyone assumes is covered until a claim is filed and denied,” said Andy Sharpe, CEO of meshVI. “By partnering with Catena, we are enabling carriers to weaponize their own telematics data. We aren’t just checking a box; we are verifying the actual assets in motion to ensure 100% insurance alignment.”
Jeremy Baksht, CEO of Catena, added: “Visibility is only valuable if it drives better decisions. By coupling our broad telematics connectivity with meshVI’s risk engine, we are moving Missing Asset Detection from a manual, reactive process to an automated, real-time reality that protects the entire supply chain.”
What’s Next
To help industry stakeholders identify and close existing coverage gaps, meshVI and Catena are launching:
- Missing Asset Audit Pilots: Specialized Q1 2026 onboarding for fleets to identify unlisted assets in their current schedules.
- The “Verified Velocity” Webinar Series: Deep dives into how real-time asset detection reduces insurance premiums and accelerates dispatch.
- Impact Case Studies: Real-world data on how meshVerified has successfully mitigated six-figure exposures for brokers and carriers.
