Why it matters

The wrong sub costs more than a bad bid.

Audit surprises

An uninsured sub's payroll can end up on your workers' comp audit. We show coverage dates up front.

Certificate chasing

Days of back-and-forth before a sub can start. Our intros arrive with license status and coverage dates.

2028 is coming

Under SB 1455, workers' comp applies to every California licensee from January 1, 2028. What changes →

How it works

One request. A real person matches it.

No bidding board and no lead-selling. A real person matches every request by hand.

You request

Trade, city or county, start date, and what the job requires. Takes about two minutes.

We match

From subs whose CSLB license and insurance we've checked, in your trade and area.

We ask the sub

Subs are asked first. We only share their details after they agree to the intro.

You connect

You get their contact details and the facts we checked. Bid and scope it like any other job.

What "verified" means

Facts with dates. Nothing more.

When a sub shows the "Verified by Insureaze" badge, it means these specific things were true on the day we checked:

CSLB license statusChecked against the Contractors State License Board's records for the classification you need, with the date we checked.
General liability in force through a dateCoverage we've confirmed is active, and the date it runs through.
Workers' comp in force through a dateSame thing: the policy is active and you see when it ends.

It doesn't mean we rate or endorse their work. Check bids, references and scope the way you always do, and get a certificate naming you before they start.
