Capture Every T&M Tag In Real Time

Clearstory replaces paper tickets with a shared digital log for all subcontractor T&M work. Tags are submitted, signed, and photo-backed instantly, so there’s no lost paperwork, no end-of-month surprises, and no admin scramble.

Extra Work Happens Fast. So Should T&M.

When work changes in the field, T&M Tags are supposed to protect everyone. But too often they get lost, show up late, or are illegible. Paper tickets are passed hand-to-hand, photos are texted out of context, and documentation gaps create friction with owners during review.

No centralized log across trades
No visibility into unsigned tags
Delay in visibility of associated costs
