Subsource
Yelp for construction. Find and review contractors, subs, and suppliers
Overview
Subsource is a review directory for commercial construction, essentially Yelp for contractors. Businesses search across four categories (contractors, subs, suppliers, agencies) and 80+ trade tags, then leave star-rated reviews that business owners can reply to. Ratings recalculate on every new review. Sign-in is Google OAuth with 1-hour JWT tokens so nobody has to create a password, and reCAPTCHA v3 filters bot signups. The API exposes 53 endpoints with full CRUD across every entity. Nuxt 3 SSR keeps business profile pages indexable.
