  • Vetting a contractor before hiring

    Check license type, permit volume, and the work a firm has actually filed. The track record is there before anything gets signed.

  • Confirming contractor work on a claim

  • Sizing contractor activity in a market

    Measure who is building what, where, and how often, so you can see which firms genuinely operate in a market before routing work to them.
