Built by People Who
Know the Trades
We didn't learn about contractors from a market report. We grew up around them. Our family is in the trades. We built Verified Node because we saw a problem no one else was solving.
Simon Bergeron
Co-Founder & Developer
Full-stack developer with 10+ years building products that solve real problems. His brother is a general contractor, and through him Simon saw an entire world of subcontractors—electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs—all incredibly skilled, but with zero digital presence. They spend half their time hunting for the next job instead of doing the work they actually love. With AI changing how people find services, it's only getting harder for them.
"These guys are masters at their craft. But they're invisible online. Now AI is answering questions about who to hire—and they're not even in the conversation."
Gab Bujold
Co-Founder & Go-to-Market
Go-to-market specialist who's spent years helping businesses reach their customers. Grew up around contractors—dad was a plumber, uncle ran an electrical shop. Understands the language, the hustle, and why most marketing doesn't work for trades.
"These are the hardest-working people I know. They shouldn't need a marketing degree to get found."
Why We're Different
Most tech companies see contractors as a "market opportunity." We see them as family.
We've watched lead-gen companies charge $50 for shared leads that never answer. We've seen good contractors lose jobs to competitors who just game the algorithm better. We've heard the frustration at family dinners.
When AI started changing how people find local services, we knew contractors would be left behind unless someone built something specifically for them. Not another lead marketplace. Not another SEO agency. Something different.
We built Verified Node because the people we care about needed it.
