Comparison
COI Shield vs. traditional tracking services
Outsourced certificate review solved this problem for enterprises a decade ago — with human review queues, per-certificate fees and sales-led onboarding. AI changes the economics for everyone else.
Who reads the certificate
Traditional services
A human review team, typically on a queue measured in days.
COI Shield
AI reads it in seconds, the moment it is uploaded — and flags anything it is not confident about instead of guessing.
Pricing
Traditional services
Usually "contact sales", often priced per certificate or per review.
COI Shield
Public flat plans by roster size, from $150/mo. The price on the pricing page is the price.
Getting started
Traditional services
Sales call, onboarding project, implementation timeline.
COI Shield
Self-serve: import a spreadsheet, set requirements, send links. First certificate verified the same hour.
Your subs’ experience
Traditional services
Portals with accounts and passwords — the main reason subs do not comply.
COI Shield
A private link. No account, no password, nothing to install.
Requirements
Traditional services
Company-wide templates, changes go through support.
COI Shield
Per job-site, edited by you, re-graded instantly.
