A practical marketplace onboarding flow
Collect the contractor's identity and license number, verify the exact record, and use business-name search for discovery when the number is missing.
- Normalize the source result into your onboarding model.
- Evaluate status, classification, and identity together.
- Send no-match, ambiguous, or adverse results to human review.
- Reverify later according to your risk policy.
Integrate once across supported authorities
Use one request model across live CSLB, DBPR, NYC DCWP and DOB, Oregon CCB, TDLR, Virginia DPOR, and Washington L&I sources instead of maintaining a separate ingestion and normalization pipeline for each source.
