Field notes
The page gives examples of records by trade, from HVAC service histories and plumbing change orders to freight dispatch records and restaurant supplier files. It says headcount—not industry—determines which of two programmes an owner enters, with different thresholds for active and closed companies. Founder Alex describes licensing an archive from an eleven-year software studio, presenting that experience as the source of the referral business.
