How the matching algorithm works
Every candidate is scored 0–100 before you see them. You only see matches above your minimum threshold.
Trade match
Exact trade alignment — bricklayer to bricklayer, electrician to electrician.
Experience
Years in trade, project types, and specific skills match to your requirements.
Visa eligibility
Workers are pre-screened for D1 eligibility — criminal record, passport status.
Language level
Basic Spanish/Portuguese communication capability for on-site integration.
Identity revealed only after you request an introduction
Quality at every step
We mediate every introduction. You don't get a candidate pool — you get a curated shortlist.
Every worker is verified
Passport, criminal record check, trade certification, and experience validation before any company sees their profile.
Every company is vetted
Business licence, tax registration, and employment history review. No company contacts workers until admin approval.
Every step is documented
Introductions, offers, contracts, and visa documents are stored and tracked. No verbal commitments, no lost paperwork.
