Defect close-out, evidenced

A construction industry where trust rests on evidence — every project closes clean.

Verticks turns fragmented site observations into clearly owned, evidenced, verified close-out. Every defect gets a location on the plan, an owner, photo evidence, and a verified sign-off.

Close-out is fragmented — and it's costing you time

Photos arrive without location, messages without owners, and "reported complete" is not "verified complete."

Four steps to a clean close-out

Built mobile-first, for gloved hands on noisy sites, with patchy connectivity.

1

Capture

Log a defect on-site with a photo and a pin on the plan — precise location, every time.

2

Assign

Route it to the right owner instantly, so nothing sits unclaimed in a chat thread.

3

Evidence

Fix work is documented with photo evidence tied to the exact location and item.

4

Verify

A human reviewer signs off — "complete" only means complete once it's verified.

Built for the way sites actually work

Plugs into your existing project tools. Keeps humans approving every consequential decision.

Plan-pinned defects

Every item is tied to a vertex on the plan, so location is never guesswork.

Clear ownership

Every defect is assigned to a named owner from the moment it's logged.

Works offline

Designed for patchy site connectivity — capture now, sync when you're back online.

Verified sign-off

Reviewers confirm evidence before an item closes — humans decide, always.

Integrates with your stack

Plugs into the project tools you already use, rather than replacing them.

Built for gloved hands

Mobile-first, large touch targets, designed for noisy, busy sites.

Close projects clean — with evidence, not guesswork.

Verticks does not certify safety or compliance, or replace inspections — it makes close-out ownership and evidence unambiguous.
