What you'll walk away with

For every new sub above your threshold — a 1-page vetting brief with green/yellow/red. Documented decision in case of dispute.

The idea
A bad sub is the single biggest source of pain on a job: missed schedules, quality issues, safety incidents, surprise liens. Most show up in public signals — recent legal mentions, employee reviews, social posts — that take 5 minutes to find with AI.
The win: fewer job-site disasters; lower claims → cheaper insurance over time.
