Pikorua Security today released its 2026 Subcontractor COI Compliance & Risk Transfer Benchmark, covering defect rates by trade and deficiency category for subcontractor and vendor Certificates of Insurance reviewed on the platform.

Read the 2026 Benchmark Report“Completed operations is where contractors get hurt, because the claim shows up after everyone has moved on. The data says most files still are not checked for it.”

ProductPikorua Security publishes free ISO Endorsement Library covering 20 additional insured, waiver and exclusion formsThe library explains edition histories, common defect traps and model contract wording for forms including CG 20 10, CG 20 37, CG 20 01, CG 24 04, WC 00 03 13 and CG 21 39.
BENGALURU, India. Pikorua Security today published the ISO Endorsement Library, a free reference for risk managers, project teams and contract drafters. Each of the 20 guides covers what the form does, how its editions changed, the defect traps Pikorua Security's risk engineers see most often, and sample contract exhibit wording.
The library is written and maintained by Pikorua Security's Risk Engineering team, the same group that maintains the edition rules behind the product's endorsement validator. It is free to read without registration.
Browse the Endorsement Library“Contract exhibits ask for forms by number, and certificates claim them by checkbox. We wanted one place that explains what each form actually does, edition by edition.”
ProductPikorua Security adds Yardi Voyager and AppFolio connectors, extending automatic payment holds to property managersProperty managers and REITs can now hold vendor payments automatically when insurance falls out of compliance, inside the systems their accountants already use. The connectors join Pikorua Security's Procore connector for general contractors.
BENGALURU, India. Pikorua Security today announced general availability of its Yardi Voyager and AppFolio connectors, joining the Procore connector released in November 2025. When Pikorua Security finds a deficiency, such as a missing waiver of subrogation or an expired policy, the vendor's compliance status updates in the connected system and payment is held until a corrected document is verified.
Every hold and release is recorded with the document, page and rule that triggered it, giving accounting and risk teams one audit trail across construction and property portfolios.
See the Yardi Voyager connector“Property accountants should not have to cross-check a spreadsheet before paying a vendor invoice. The hold should already be there.”
CompanyPikorua Security launches endorsement-level Certificate of Insurance verification for US general contractorsPikorua Security reads ACORD 25 and ACORD 28 certificates and the endorsement pages behind them, checks form numbers and edition dates against subcontract requirements, and chases the vendor's broker for corrections.
BENGALURU, India. Pikorua Security today launched its Certificate of Insurance compliance platform for US general contractors and commercial property managers. Unlike tools that read only the certificate's front page, Pikorua Security extracts and verifies the attached ISO endorsements, including additional insured, primary and non-contributory, and waiver of subrogation forms, by form number and edition date.
When a document falls short, Pikorua Security sends a deficiency notice to both the vendor and its retail insurance broker that names the missing form and includes a zero-login upload link. Renewals are chased automatically at 60, 30, 15 and 0 days before expiration.
Pikorua Security is available with a 14-day free production trial. Starter plans begin at $299 per month billed annually.
How endorsement validation works“A certificate of insurance confers no rights on its own. The protection is in the endorsements, so that is what we built Pikorua Security to read.”
