Wage dispute evidence tracker and recovery guide
A mobile app that helps workers document unpaid wages, organize communications with employers, and follow clear state-specific recovery steps without hiring a lawyer.
The problem
Workers facing wage theft or non-payment have no simple way to gather evidence, understand their rights by state, or navigate recovery options; they post on Quora in desperation because the path forward is unclear and they fear retaliation.
Who has it: Full-time and freelance workers aged 22–55 in the US who have experienced delayed or partial wage non-payment and want to recover owed money without legal fees.
Why now: Gig economy, contractor misclassification, and remote work have exploded wage disputes; state labor departments are overwhelmed; workers need a tool that is cheaper and faster than consulting an attorney.
