PaperBoss vs TrustLayer

TrustLayer markets itself as a risk management platform with AI compliance verification. It integrates with Procore and larger PM tools and suits enterprise risk departments. The gotcha: human document review isn\u2019t included in base pricing. You need TrustLayer+ for that. For construction, where endorsement language and AI wording matter, that gap can create real coverage risk. PaperBoss keeps the workflow simple and pairs it with manual review tools built into the dashboard.

Simple, flat pricing

Three published tiers starting at $29/mo. TrustLayer pricing is sales-led and tiered.

W-9 and WC tracking built in

PaperBoss handles COI, W-9, and WC exemption documents in one tool. TrustLayer is a COI/compliance platform only.

No extra tier for review

PaperBoss surfaces AI checklists and review tools on every COI in every plan. TrustLayer’s managed human review requires TrustLayer+.

Zero sub friction

Subs upload via a secure link with no account required. TrustLayer’s vendor portal is more structured but requires vendor signup.

Frequently asked questions

How does TrustLayer pricing work?

TrustLayer uses a tiered sales-led pricing model. Base plans include OCR-driven compliance checks; managed human review of certificates is gated behind TrustLayer+. PaperBoss publishes all pricing and includes document-review tools on every plan.

What does TrustLayer do that PaperBoss doesn’t?

TrustLayer has deeper enterprise integrations (particularly with Procore) and positions itself as a full risk management platform with policy verification. If you’re an enterprise risk team already living in Procore, TrustLayer may be the right fit.

What does PaperBoss do that TrustLayer doesn’t?

Built-in W-9 collection and Workers’ Comp exemption tracking, published flat pricing starting at $29/mo, and self-serve signup with no sales call. PaperBoss is focused on the subcontractor paperwork workflow specifically.

Can I switch from TrustLayer to PaperBoss?

Yes. Export your vendor list and COIs, import them into PaperBoss, and you’ll be tracking the same day. Email support@paperboss.io for migration help.

Simple COI tracking, simple pricing.

Every day without tracking is a day you’re exposed. One uninsured sub can cost you the whole job.
