For contractors, completing the work is only part of the job. Being able to prove when the work was completed can be just as important. Payment milestones, inspections, warranties, and disputes often depend on a specific completion date.
Proof of Date helps contractors establish a provable completion date, using photographic evidence tied to an independent timestamp.
Why contractors need provable completion dates
- Payment is released after verified completion
- Clients dispute whether work was finished on time
- Inspections happen after the work is done
- Warranty periods begin on completion
- Deadlines are written into contracts
By recording completion photos with Proof of Date, contractors create clear evidence that the work was finished by a certain date.
How photographic evidence is used
- Photos of completed work at the job site
- Images showing installed materials or equipment
- Serial numbers, labels, or identifying details
- Wide shots and close-ups showing scope and condition
Multiple photos can be recorded together to show the full state of completion.
Evidence that holds up
Relying on phone timestamps, file metadata, or after-the-fact reports leaves room for dispute. Dates can be altered and records can be questioned.
Proof of Date creates an independent record showing these photos existed on this date, strengthening a contractor’s position if completion is challenged.
Proof of Date does not replace inspections, sign-offs, or certifications. It complements them by adding neutral, third-party time evidence tied directly to the work performed.
Protect your work and your payment
Your photos can remain private. Nothing needs to be published or shared. You decide what to record and when.
Sometimes the most important proof is simple:
“This work was completed on this date.”
