Licenses, verified at the source.

A license is the public record that says someone is allowed to do the work: the contractor's board card, the broker's registration, the professional certification. Amalgament pulls license records from state boards and joins them to the businesses that hold them, so verification becomes a lookup instead of a portal safari.

What's in the record

• License numbers, classifications, and issuing boards
• Status: current, expired, suspended, or revoked
• Issue and expiration dates
• Links from licenses to the registered business entity

Where it comes from

State professional and trade licensing boards, normalized so a roofing license in Florida and a contractor card in Colorado read the same way.

What people build with it

Marketplaces that verify pros before listing them, insurers checking credentials at underwriting, and procurement teams confirming a vendor is licensed for the work being bid.

Common questions

Can I verify a contractor before hiring them?

That is one of the most common uses. Search the business, read its license records, and check status and classification against the issuing board's own data.

Do licenses connect to the rest of a company's records?

Yes. A license held by a registered business joins the same entity as its formation filings, UCC filings, and awards, so you see credentials in context.
