Trade license expiry tracker

Help fire/HVAC/electrical/plumbing shop owners track technician licenses and certifications in one place

Problem

Small trade business owners in fire protection, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing are directly asking their communities how to keep track of when technicians' state licenses and certifications expire. Today it's spreadsheets, field service software, or leaving it to the techs. When a customer, inspector, or the state asks to prove everyone is current, one expired license can mean a work stoppage or fine.

Solution

Build a license profile per technician with photo uploads and expiry reminders; export a one-click 'all staff compliant' PDF for customer or inspection requests; auto-notify owner and tech on expiry or gaps.

Users

Small trade businesses with 3–50 licensed technicians

MVP

Technician and license entry; expiry reminders (in-app/SMS/email); license photo archive; one-click compliance proof PDF; expiry status dashboard

Revenue

Monthly subscription per technician ($1–3/tech/mo), or flat company pricing

Why now

Compliance scrutiny is rising, field service suites don't cover this small slice, and an indie can build just this narrow feature and acquire via trade communities
