01
A readiness state that's computed, never assigned
No one ever clicks "mark as compliant". The engine derives each contractor's state — Ready, At Risk, Restricted or Blocked — live from their actual evidence, expiry dates and the requirements that specific principal has set. Change a date, and the state recalculates itself.
02
A tamper-evident audit chain
Every significant event is written to an append-only log where each entry carries a SHA-256 hash of the one before it. Alter or delete a record and the chain breaks visibly. If WorkSafe asks you to prove what you knew and when, the history can't have been quietly rewritten.
03
Live checks against government registers
Documents are cross-checked in real time against the NZBN, Licensed Building Practitioner and Insolvency registers through the official MBIE APIs, so a claimed licence or company status is verified at source, not just taken on trust from an uploaded PDF.
04
A QR site gate that checks readiness on arrival
Each site has a QR code. A worker scans, verifies their phone by one-time code, and the gate recomputes their company's readiness on the spot — admitting, restricting or denying entry and writing an induction record. It even works offline, with a cryptographic seal verified on sync.
05
Append-only evidence, so the record is honest
Approved documents are never edited in place. A renewal creates a new record that supersedes the old one, preserving the full history. The evidentiary value of the original is never lost or overwritten.
06
AI that reads documents, humans that decide
When a certificate is uploaded, AI extracts the policy limits, dates and details automatically and presents them with a confidence score. The contractor confirms; nothing sensitive is auto-trusted. It removes the data entry without removing the human judgement.
