The allocation problem

Construction doesn't have a labor shortage. It has a labor allocation problem — work is spread unevenly across time, geography, and trade.

SKILLS redistributes availability between real businesses, so a gap on one job site gets covered by a crew with downtime on another — without commoditizing the trade.

How it works

From labor gap to work finished

Four steps, server-authoritative the whole way — every transition is tracked, every commitment is accountable.

01

Posting

Post a need — or your availability

Create a Crew Needed or Crew Available posting in six quick steps: trades, crew size, location, schedule, and pay. Autosaves as you go, even off-signal on a job site.

02

Coverage Offer

Send a structured offer

Make a Coverage Offer with rate, crew size, and schedule. Anti-lowball guardrails keep pricing fair. Counter, accept, or decline — every move is tracked.

03

Locked In

Lock in the work agreement

Accepting an offer creates a Work Agreement — an immutable snapshot both businesses commit to. No ambiguity, no renegotiating the terms after the handshake.

04

Work Finished

Crews on site → work finished

Start work, track progress, and mark it complete. Reviews build reputation. Disputes are available at any stage with a full audit trail behind them.

Built for the field

Everything to staff the work you've already won

Structured offers, real accountability, and compliance that travels with you — designed to work for a low-tech user on the first try.

Postings

Crew Needed & Crew Available

Redistribute availability instead of commoditizing labor. Post the gap you need filled, or monetize your crew's downtime without undercutting the trade.

  • 6-step posting flow with autosave
  • Hourly, flat-rate, or bid compensation
  • Job-site location or service-area radius

Coverage Offers

Structured offers with guardrails

Every offer is structured and server-authoritative. Offer floors, rate caps, and submission limits protect fair market pricing and keep spam out.

  • Anti-lowball floors & rate caps
  • Counter / accept / decline / withdraw
  • Pre-submit warnings before you send

Compliance Vault

Insurance & licenses, ready to share

Track COIs, licenses, certifications, and safety docs in one place. Expiration alerts before you lapse — and a shareable profile when a GC asks.

  • Expiration tracking & reminders
  • Broker integration for renewals
  • Share a read-only compliance profile

Trust & Verification

Verification tiers you can trust

Participation is anchored to real businesses. Tiers climb from Basic to Verified Pro as companies add insurance, tax docs, and licenses.

  • Org-based — no anonymous labor
  • Tiers auto-promote on document upload
  • Reputation from completed agreements

Workboard

One command center

Active postings, the offers inbox, unread messages, and notifications — everything that needs your attention in a single mobile-first view.

  • Status summary at a glance
  • Offers inbox with quick actions
  • Deep-linked notifications

Built for crews who can't miss a day

Early access is rolling out trade by trade. Here's what it's for.

We filled a four-man electrical gap the same afternoon. The offer floors meant nobody tried to lowball us.

Our downtime finally makes money. We post availability Friday and we're booked by Monday.
