Counterparty red-flag screen
Lawsuits, judgments, liens, complaints, BBB records, regulatory actions, and news — graded low, medium, or high. Works for any company, in any industry.
Third-party & vendor risk screening
Fourteen browser tabs, or one verdict.
The state licensing board. PACER. The county recorder. BBB. Three news searches. Then the judgment call, from memory, at 4:50pm on a Friday. That is the process this replaces — not the judgment, the tab-opening.
One name in, one sourced verdict out — every finding graded and linked.
The evidence stays attached, so a reviewer can audit the reasoning.
A checklist of what to obtain before bidding comes with it.
What a screen actually covers
Contractor license verification
Direct state-board lookups in Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, Nevada, Texas — status, license number, issue and expiry dates, classifications, surety bond, workers' compensation. Other states return web-search pointers, which is research, not verification.
A source URL on every claim
Nothing is inferred. If a lookup fails or a record is not found, it says "Lookup failed" or "Not found" — there are no mock fallbacks anywhere in the pipeline.
Coverage currency
License, bond, and workers-comp dates become a countdown, with a panel listing only what needs chasing — 30 days red, 60 days amber, past-date red. An uploaded certificate of insurance answers general liability, which no board publishes.
Re-checkable runs
Every run is timestamped, so re-screening the same vendor surfaces what changed: Active to Expired, a cancelled bond, a new disciplinary action.
One verdict
CLEAR, REVIEW, or DO NOT ENGAGE — with plain-English reasoning, the evidence behind it, and a checklist of what to obtain before you bid.
Direct board verification covers Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, Nevada, Texas only. Outside those states a screen returns web-search pointers — research, not verification. Stated plainly because you're the one who has to defend the file.
