Automate license verification for your marketplace
Build trust and safety into your platform. Verify contractors at onboarding and monitor continuously for compliance.
The Problem
Manual Document Review
Your team spends hours reviewing uploaded license documents. It doesn't scale and it's error-prone.
Licenses Expire Without Notice
A contractor verified last year might not be licensed today. Without monitoring, you won't know until something goes wrong.
Trust & Safety Risk
When an unlicensed contractor causes damage, your platform's reputation is on the line.

);
const data = await response.json();
if (data.status === 'active') {
// License is valid - allow signup, show verified badge
await createContractorProfile({
...formData,
licenseVerified: true,
