Subcontractor Compliance Software Comparison
Compare the leading tools for COI tracking, pay app auditing, and lien waiver management. Find the right solution for your general contracting firm.
Why Choosing the Right Compliance Tool Matters
Expired COIs = Liability
A single lapsed insurance certificate can expose your firm to millions in uninsured claims.
Pay App Errors = Cash Loss
Manual review misses an average of 12% of billing errors, costing GCs thousands per project.
Missing Waivers = Lien Risk
Incomplete lien waiver chains can result in double-payment exposure on every draw.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is subcontractor compliance software?
Subcontractor compliance software helps general contractors manage insurance certificates (COIs), pay applications, lien waivers, and other compliance documents for their subcontractors. It automates tracking, validation, and reporting to reduce risk and save time.
How do I choose the right compliance software for my GC firm?
Focus on your primary pain point (COI tracking, pay app review, or lien waivers), then evaluate AI extraction accuracy, integration with your existing tools (like Procore), subcontractor self-service capabilities, and pricing relative to your project volume.
What makes Subcontractor Audit different from other compliance tools?
Subcontractor Audit combines AI-powered document extraction with deep compliance validation across COIs, pay apps, lien waivers, prequalification, prevailing wage, safety/OSHA, bonds, retainage, change orders, and project closeout in a single platform built specifically for GCs. It covers the full project lifecycle, not just insurance tracking.
Can I use Subcontractor Audit alongside Procore?
Yes. Subcontractor Audit offers bi-directional Procore integration that syncs your vendor list, pushes compliance statuses back to Procore, and imports project data automatically.
Is there a free trial available?
