GJWGHOST JOB WATCHEmployment Accountability

Platform

Built like an evidence system, not a job board.

Investigators must be able to explain exactly what was collected, when, how it was obtained, and whether it changed. Our design follows NIST IR 8387 digital evidence preservation guidance.

Evidence record

Every artifact, fully documented.

FieldPurpose
Evidence IDUnique identifier for each collected artifact
Posting IDLinks all versions of the same advertisement
Employer identityLegal entity and verified employer domain
Original URLWhere evidence was collected
Acquisition timestampUTC time of collection
Source artifactsOriginal HTML, screenshot, PDF, and metadata
SHA-256 hashDetects later modification
Collection methodAPI, permitted crawler, investigator upload, or applicant submission
Collector identityHuman investigator or automated service
Chain-of-custody logAccess, transfers, and evidence handling
Verification statusUnverified, corroborated, disputed, or independently confirmed
Retention & legal holdControls preservation and deletion

Attorney portal

Usable case material for counsel.

CapabilityFunction
Case clusteringApplicants reporting similar conduct by the same employer
Common-facts analysisRepresentations and practices that affected multiple applicants
Damages documentationDocumented expenses, financial losses, and other injuries
Jurisdiction analysisRelevant federal and state law and deadlines, for attorney verification
Evidence exportIndexed, hashed, Bates-numbered production packages
Witness managementConsent, availability, statements, and corroboration
Legal hold managementPreservation for anticipated or pending litigation
Attorney collaborationIsolated workspaces with role-based access and audit trails

Attorney workspaces are isolated from public investigations. Attorney-client privilege does not arise merely because a document is stored in a legal portal.

Collection legality

We don't break in to prove a point.

We honor access restrictions, rate limits, privacy obligations, and contractual terms. We never bypass authentication or technical barriers to obtain postings.

Roadmap

What we're building, in order.

Phase 1 ยท First release

Public accountability MVP

Homepage, secure complaint intake, posting archive, evidence hashing, employer identity verification, investigator review, public methodology.

Phase 2

Intelligence & investigation

Historical monitoring, duplicate detection, employer timelines, complaint correlation, confidence scoring, rebuttal and correction workflows.

Phase 3

Legal collaboration

Attorney workspaces, evidence exports, witness management, litigation holds, case development.

Phase 4

Legislative intelligence

Policy dashboards, aggregate impact analysis, jurisdictional research, briefing packages.
