Certificates of insurance · Ontario WSIB clearance

Subcontractor insurance tracking for general contractors Every sub on site, insured. Every time.

SubCert Sentinel checks every subcontractor's insurance certificate against your contract requirements, shows who is cleared to work today, and chases renewals for you.

14 days, every feature, no card needed.

The spreadsheet says they're covered. Are they?

Stale spreadsheets

The status column is typed by hand, so it is only as current as the last person who looked.

Cancelled policies

A sub can be insured on Monday and cancelled by Friday. Nobody finds out until a claim or an audit.

8–12 hours a week of chasing

Emailing subs and agents, renaming PDFs, re-reading limits. Time that adds up to a part-time job. (Commonly quoted vendor estimate.)

How it works

  1. Set your requirements

    Pick the limits and endorsements your contracts demand, once, as a reusable template. Add a stricter one for roofers or crane crews.

  2. Subs upload through a private link

    Each sub gets their own page showing exactly what is missing. They (or their agent) upload the certificate and type in the policy lines. Nothing counts until you approve it.

  3. Site-ready or Blocked

    Every sub is checked against the requirements automatically, and reminders go out on a schedule before anything lapses. You see one clear answer per sub.

Everything you need to stay covered

Requirement checks

Limits, umbrella stacking, additional insured, waiver of subrogation, primary & non-contributory, and dates, each shortfall explained in plain words.

Sub portal

A private link per sub. No accounts, no password resets, no email attachments to file.

Tiered reminders

Notices at 30, 14, 7 and 0 days (you choose the schedule), then again when overdue. Each is sent once and logged.

Gate check

A phone-sized screen for the superintendent: type a company name, get a big green or red answer.

Cancellations & waivers

A cancellation notice blocks a sub at once. A documented waiver with an end date lets an agreed exception through.

Ontario WSIB clearance

Track each sub's WSIB clearance certificate number and valid-until date, re-check it every 90 days, and see Blocked when it is missing or expired, right next to insurance.

CSV import & export

Bring in your spreadsheet with a preview step. Export subs, rosters and upcoming expirations any time.

Reports

Compliance by project, expirations by week, the most common deficiencies, and how long certificates wait for review.

Team roles

Owners, admins and view-only users, with an activity log of who changed what.

Answer "can this crew work today?" from your phone at the gate.

Questions

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. The 14-day trial has every feature and Pro limits. When it ends the app stays usable while you choose a plan.

Is there a fee per subcontractor or per review?

No. Each plan is a flat monthly price. Limits are only on the number of active subcontractors and team members.

Does it read the certificate PDF for me?

Not yet. The policy lines are typed in by your admin or by the sub, and the file is kept next to them so the reviewer can compare. Nothing counts until it is approved.

What happens when a policy is cancelled?

Mark it cancelled with a date and a note. It stops counting immediately, the sub shows as Blocked, and your admins get a notification.

Can I bring my existing spreadsheet?

Yes. Import subs and their current policies from CSV. You see which rows are valid before anything is saved.

Do subcontractors need an account?

No. They use a private link that you can regenerate at any time.

We work in Ontario. Can it track WSIB clearance certificates?

Yes. Tick "We work in Ontario" at sign-up (or later on the Requirements page). Every sub then needs a WSIB clearance certificate number and valid-until date, is re-checked every 90 days, and is Blocked when the certificate is missing or expired.

Is this insurance or legal advice?

No. It applies the requirements you set to the certificates you enter. Deciding what your contracts should require is up to you.
