The method

A record, not a promise.

Every listing names the authority, the identifier, the recorded status and the date we checked it. The point is to make the evidence inspectable, including what it leaves out.

Four steps. No shortcuts.

  1. 01

    Download the official export

    We start with a state licensing authority's bulk file, not a directory scrape or a business's own claim.

  2. 02

    Copy the fields, not a summary

    Legal name, identifier, credential type, recorded status, expiry and source file. We keep the value as published.

  3. 03

    Join the row to the business

    A matching phone or address is required. A name alone is not enough. The join and its source are saved.

  4. 04

    Publish the date and the limits

    Every record shows when it was checked and what the record does not prove. A saved export is not a live lookup.

What we copy.

The field map depends on the state. We do not normalise a status into a stronger word than the source uses.

StateAuthorityFields
CACSLBName, licence, class, status, expiry
TXTDLRName, licence, type, status, expiry
WAL&IName, licence, type, status, expiry

What the status means.

We treat CLEAR, LICENSED and ACTIVE as an eligible recorded status. The listing always shows the exact value from the export.

Where the saved export holds no active record for a business, the page says so in the same fields: the authority, the identifier, the recorded status and the check date. A missing record is not proof that the business lacks one, and we never present it as one.

  • Not a live lookup

    The status is a point-in-time copy. It may have changed since the check date.

  • Not an endorsement

    A record does not mean we recommend the business or have used it.

  • Not insurance

    The state record does not prove cover for your job.

  • Not availability

    We do not call ahead or hold a slot.

The sources

Check it at the authority.

These are the official lookups we point to. A record on NowVetted is a starting point, not a replacement for the source.

Found something wrong?

A phone number, website or city can change before a credential does. Tell us what is wrong and we will check it against the saved evidence.

Report a record error

NowVetted is published by Brahim Elghazi. The About page names the publisher and lists what the site does not claim.

What we will do

  • Recheck the source field.
  • Correct or remove the record.
  • Log the change and the date.
