DueFiles vs Certificial

Certificial depends on live policy network data. DueFiles verifies the certificate and endorsements you already have, then chases missing documents from vendors and brokers.

Live carrier data serves a different workflow. Most vendor programs still depend on the PDF a broker emails. DueFiles extracts, verifies, confirms, and chases that packet.

Why DueFiles wins

  • Work with the ACORD 25 and endorsements already in your files.
  • Do not require every producer to join an external network.
  • Set named ISO forms in the requirement template.
  • Use a direct upload link when the packet needs correction.
  • Start with a published catalog and a free plan.
  • Keep a file pending until your team confirms it, even when a feed shows that the policy exists.

The PDF remains the record

Lenders, boards, and GCs ask for the certificate and endorsements. DueFiles stores the packet, reads it, and shows the gaps without waiting for a producer to join a network.

Live policy data does not replace review

A policy can be active and still lack completed-operations additional insured coverage. DueFiles flags the gap, your reviewer sees it, and the portal requests the form.

Start with the files you have

Create a workspace, import the roster, and send vendor upload links. Published plans and the sample workspace are available before procurement.

Questions that come up

Do we need live policy data?
Carrier data is useful when available. Vendor programs still need a workflow for producers who are not on a network. DueFiles verifies the packet you can collect today.
What happens if a policy is cancelled mid-term?
A certificate can become stale. DueFiles stores each version, continues renewal reminders, and lets your team require a fresh certificate on its chosen cadence. The audit log preserves the history.
Does DueFiles replace network data?
DueFiles verifies the packet that reaches your program. The certificate and endorsements remain the documents you provide to an auditor, board, lender, or GC.

Run the program in DueFiles

Start free with the certificates you already have. Verify coverage without waiting on a network.
