Every platform needs vendor trust.
Nobody should build it from scratch.

Built for platforms that list vendors

Directories & review sites

Enrich listings with compliance data, license status, and multi-source ratings.

e.g. Yelp alternatives, niche directories

Parenting & care platforms

Surface violation history, licensing, and safety scores for childcare, schools, and tutors.

e.g. UESMums, Winnie, Care.com

Home services

Verify contractor licenses, insurance, and compliance before matching with homeowners.

e.g. Thumbtack, Angi, HomeAdvisor
