Misclassified? Build the case

What ClassCheck does

They pay you on a 1099 but treat you like an employee: a set schedule, a supervisor, required meetings, their equipment, their training. That combination has a legal name — misclassification — and it quietly costs you overtime, minimum-wage protection, expense reimbursement, and half your payroll taxes. ClassCheck is the private, offline case-builder that turns your suspicion into a documented factual record.

Start with the self-assessment. ClassCheck bundles the Department of Labor's six-factor economic-realities test and state ABC tests, so you can score your working relationship in minutes, entirely offline. Each factor is asked in plain language — who sets your hours, who supplies the tools, how permanent is the relationship — and the result is a factor-by-factor verdict card you can save and share.

Then keep the record nobody else keeps. Misclassification claims live or die on documented facts of control, recorded as they happen. Every time they set your schedule, require a meeting, hand you equipment, discipline you, or dictate exactly how the work gets done, log it as a control incident: timestamped, categorized by legal factor, with notes and photo attachments. Months later you have a chronology instead of a memory.

The damages estimator shows what employee status would have paid: overtime you worked at straight time, the minimum-wage gap on slow weeks, expenses you covered out of pocket, and the employer payroll-tax share you paid yourself. Numbers, not vibes.

When you are ready to act, export a dossier: your test results, the incident chronology, and the pay-gap math, organized the way IRS Form SS-8 and attorney intake questionnaires actually ask for it.

Everything stays on your device. No account, no cloud, and no one knows you are checking. ClassCheck is a personal record-keeping tool built on published classification tests; it is not legal advice and does not determine your status — agencies and courts do. Rule packs are dated so you know which version you scored against.

• DOL six-factor and state ABC-test self-assessments, fully offline • Shareable factor-by-factor verdict card with an estimated annual pay gap • Timestamped control-incident log with photos, mapped to legal factors • Damages estimator for overtime, minimum wage, expenses, and payroll tax • SS-8-ready and attorney-intake-ready PDF dossier • Private by design: on-device only, no account, nothing leaves your phone

What's inside

• Classification Self-Assessment — Plain-language questionnaires for the DOL six-factor economic-realities test and bundled state ABC tests. Each answer maps to a legal factor; the app scores employee-like vs contractor-like per factor, fully offline, with rule-pack version dates shown.
• Verdict Card — The shareable moment: a factor-by-factor verdict card — 'Employee-like on 11 of 13 factors under California's ABC test. Estimated annual pay gap if reclassified: $7,900' — rendered as a clean exportable image for annotator Discords and contractor subreddits.
• Control Incident Log — Timestamped log of facts of control as they happen: they set my schedule, required the meeting, provided the equipment, disciplined me, dictated the method. Each incident is categorized by legal factor with notes and photo attachments.
• Damages Estimator — Enter typical weeks (hours, gross pay, out-of-pocket expenses) and see what employee status would have paid: unpaid overtime, minimum-wage shortfall, reimbursable expenses, and the employer payroll-tax share you covered yourself.
• Dossier Export — One tap assembles assessments, the incident chronology, and the damages math into a dated PDF organized to answer IRS Form SS-8 and attorney intake questionnaires.
• Rule Library — Offline reference explaining each DOL factor and each state ABC prong in plain language, with version dates per rule pack and the Prop 22 note for California app-based drivers.

Why we built it

Tens of millions of US workers are paid on a 1099 while being treated like employees, illegally losing overtime, minimum wage, expense reimbursement, and payroll-tax contributions. A misclassification case lives or dies on documented facts of control — and nobody records those facts as they happen, so workers show up…

What makes it different

Law-firm intake quizzes (classlawgroup and similar) are one-shot lead-generation forms the worker keeps nothing from; employer-side classification calculators (Deel, Multiplier guides) are built to help companies avoid liability, not to help workers document it; IRS Form SS-8 demands exactly the factual history worker…

Who it's for

Operations leaders and small teams who want a tool in their workflow without buying another platform.
