Bandwitness

Multi-state employers may need to reconstruct what compensation information a job posting displayed, where it was published and which pay-transparency rules reviewers considered at the time. Bandwitness proposes a continuously maintained evidence archive rather than a post-dispute scramble. The supplied research confirms compliance-template products and applicant-tracking systems with posting history, but found no direct product combining captured public representations, jurisdiction hypotheses and rule versions. It also confirms an address lookup primitive while leaving the referenced posting interface unverified. A limited competitor search does not prove exclusivity.

A posting's legal reach cannot be derived from employer address alone. Remote eligibility, applicant location, work location, recruiting channel, targeting, syndication, platform transformations and time all matter. A capture may miss dynamic content, localization, edits or what a particular viewer saw. Publication acknowledgment is not public readback. Current rules, private rights and remedies require primary sources and qualified employment counsel; a rule match is not a legal determination. A timestamp and hash can bind stored bytes and process evidence, but cannot prove complete capture, immutability, chain of custody, authenticity, admissibility or litigation outcome.

Source posting, approved content, pay range, publication instruction, channel acknowledgment, captured representation, readback, capture gap, target geography, remote-work assertion, viewer-context hypothesis, rule source, rule version, applicability question, qualified legal finding, correction, takedown, signed archive record, verifier result, counsel packet, demand letter and legal outcome remain separate. The first release should capture one channel and one jurisdiction under counsel review, not produce court-ready packets or automatic compliance conclusions.

An employment legal, compensation compliance or recruiting-operations lead at a multi-state employer that publishes enough roles to need continuous posting evidence.
