A built-in cash mismatch
Weekly contractor pay against 30–60 day client terms creates exposure on every placement.
Who It's For / Recruitment Agencies
Recruitment Agencies
Keep Friday payroll safe, without slowing down placements.
Recruitment cashflow breaks in one place: you pay contractors weekly, then wait 30–60 days for the client. ClearSignal converts your onboarding policy into enforceable rules and surfaces the client’s full risk picture in one place, so you tighten terms early.

Where recruitment cashflow breaks
You pay the contractor on Friday. The client pays in 60 days.
02
Inconsistent approvals
One reviewer offers 30 days, another insists on a deposit, with no consistent justification between them.
03
Disputes freeze whole invoices
A single rate disagreement or missing PO can halt an account’s payment while contractor wages keep running.
Snapshot vs. monitored client
A clean onboarding isn’t a safe payroll.
Same client, same 90 days. Switch between a one-off onboarding check and ClearSignal monitoring to see the risk to payroll a snapshot would miss.
