Inbox archaeology
Someone searches old threads every time a PM asks, “Are they good?”
Subcontractor compliance, without the chase
Know who’s cleared before they step on site—or get paid.
HoldClear turns COIs, licenses, and W-9s into a live pay/hold list for small general contractors. No sub logins. No spreadsheet babysitting.

The hidden compliance tax
Your spreadsheet is already out of date.
The moment a COI lands in an inbox, the register starts drifting. HoldClear connects the document, the requirement, and the decision.
Silent expirations
Dates and coverage limits live in cells that never chase anyone.
Unclear decisions
Field and accounting teams act on different versions of the truth.

Reserve a pilot slot →Straight answers
Before you send a single document.
Does HoldClear replace legal or insurance review?
No. We organize evidence, surface gaps, and create operational decision lists. Your team or advisor owns final coverage and legal decisions.
Do subcontractors need another login?
No. The pilot starts from your existing register and files. A future collection link may be optional, not required.
Which documents are included?
The first pilot covers COIs, trade or state licenses, and W-9s. We can map additional requirements during the workflow review.
What happens after I submit the form?
We confirm fit and scope, then provide a secure handoff plan. You choose whether to proceed with the paid audit.
