Reduce administrative overhead, disputes, and unnecessary rework.
Streamline work verification, contractor coordination, and approvals.
Connect work requirements, verified completion, and compensation authorization.
Potential benefits, not demonstrated or guaranteed results.
The labor marketplace is the patented core; the other industries represent potential adaptations requiring individual assessment.
01 — Thesis
Organizations spend time and resources managing contractors, documenting completed work, resolving disputes, and approving payments. When work requirements and verification records are disconnected, administrative costs and delays can increase.
GTS offers a patented labor-marketplace method designed to connect work agreements, performance verification, and compensation authorization within a more accountable process.
For organizations using GTS-inspired technology, the goal is improved operational efficiency and potential cost reductions—not demonstrated savings.
Potential benefits require validation; no operational savings are claimed. The patented labor marketplace method does not cover every work-verification or payment-authorization system.
Vision, not deployment. GTS describes a patented method and a direction for its application. No production system, certification or operating partnership is claimed on this site.
02 — The Method
Select a stage — or use the arrow keys — to read how the patented example embodiments move work from scope to settlement.
GTS's issued patent describes a specific blockchain-based labor marketplace method combining defined jobs, competing worker proposals, provider selection, smart-contract arrangements, quality verification, required signatures, and cryptographic-token compensation. The issued patent claims determine the scope of legal protection; broader applications involving construction, enterprise systems, or conventional banking workflows require separate assessment.
Stage 01 of 06
A requesting party publishes a specific job description setting out the work, its quality requirements and the terms under which it will be accepted.

Proposed industry adaptation
Potential benefits and revenue opportunities require pilot validation; no deployments or financial results are claimed. Outside the labor marketplace, applications require individual legal, technical, and regulatory assessment and are not automatically covered by the issued claims. Bank-based payment authorization does not necessarily practice the patent’s cryptographic-token compensation claims.
Illustrative application — proposed technology
Consider a government-supported housing development involving multiple contractors, construction milestones, inspections, and payment approvals.
Challenges that can arise—not outcomes of every construction project.
The result: More administrative effort, payment uncertainty, and potential project delays.
Step 1 — Define
The developer establishes contractor responsibilities, milestones, work requirements, and acceptance standards.
Step 2 — Contract
Contractors submit proposals; the selected provider agrees to the deliverables and terms.
Step 3 — Document
The contractor submits completion evidence: reports, project records, and supporting photographs.
Step 4 — Verify
Authorized project managers or qualified inspectors assess the work against agreed requirements and necessary inspection standards.
Step 5 — Authorize
Documented approvals support payment authorization through appropriate, regulated financial systems.
Step 6 — Resolve
Incomplete work or disputed requirements follow a documented correction, rework, or dispute-resolution process.
Photographs support documentation; they do not alone establish construction safety or regulatory compliance. Qualified assessment and required inspections remain essential.
Hypothetical application — not a deployed GTS system
A contractor completes an agreed flooring-installation milestone on a housing project.
Under a proposed GTS-inspired system, the contractor could submit completion documentation, including the required checklist, supporting photographs, and inspection records.
An authorized reviewer would assess whether the work meets the agreed acceptance requirements.
Once the required approvals are recorded, the system could support a payment-authorization request through appropriate financial infrastructure.
If the work does not meet the requirements, the exception could be documented and routed for correction or dispute resolution.
Compare the time from complete milestone submission to approval, administrative hours per milestone, and frequency of disputed or rejected submissions against the existing process.
Required construction inspections and regulatory approvals remain independent requirements; photographs alone do not establish safety or compliance.
Time
Reduce time spent coordinating documents, verification requests, and approvals.
Disputes
Improve documentation of requirements, completed work, and acceptance decisions.
Costs
Identify unacceptable or incomplete work earlier in the review process.
Accountability
Help prevent avoidable delays caused by missing information or unclear responsibilities.
Illustrative concept only. Actual savings and operational benefits would require implementation, baseline measurement, and pilot validation.
GTS is based on U.S. Patent No. 11,847,675 B2, a patented labor marketplace invention. This construction example is a proposed adaptation, not proof of coverage by the issued claims or an existing deployment. Regulated bank payment authorization is a proposed implementation approach, distinct from the patent’s cryptographic-token compensation mechanism.
04 — A California public-sector opportunity
California's publicly funded construction, housing, infrastructure, and workforce programs depend on effective contractor coordination, accurate documentation, reliable work verification, and accountable payment approvals.
GTS-inspired technology could help agencies evaluate more efficient ways to document work requirements, verify contractor performance, and support payment decisions—potentially reducing administrative costs, unnecessary rework, disputes, and project delays.
The objective: Better oversight of public funds and measurable improvements in project efficiency.
GTS proposes exploring a limited pilot with an interested California public agency or authorized project partner.
A pilot could focus on a defined contractor-verification workflow within a housing or infrastructure project, using existing legal, procurement, inspection, and payment requirements.
The goal would be to compare current processes against a proposed verification-centered approach and determine whether measurable operational improvements justify further development.
No agency has agreed to conduct a pilot.
Time from contractor milestone submission to approval.
Percentage of submissions containing the required verification and inspection records.
Frequency and duration of disputed milestones and required corrections.
Staff hours required to review documentation, coordinate approvals, and process contractor submissions.
Pilot results would be measured against a documented baseline. Any claimed savings would require evidence, including implementation costs.
Interested public agencies and technology partners are invited to discuss a possible feasibility assessment or limited pilot.
A proposal only. No savings are guaranteed, and no State of California agency has reviewed, adopted, or endorsed GTS.
GTS is based on U.S. Patent No. 11,847,675 B2, a patented labor marketplace method. Government applications are proposed adaptations requiring technical, legal, regulatory, and patent-scope assessment; the patent does not automatically cover all construction contracts, government payment systems, or verification workflows. GTS would not replace legally required inspections, procurement processes, contractor licensing, payment controls, or government oversight.

07 — Licensing & Commercial Opportunities
GTS is seeking partners to assess practical applications and commercial feasibility.
Technology companies could explore licensing applicable GTS patent rights to develop differentiated software, add platform verification capabilities, and pursue potential subscription, service, or transaction-related revenue in new markets—not existing or guaranteed revenue.
Explore commercial licensing arrangements involving applicable GTS patented methods for relevant software platforms, products, and services.
Collaborate on new applications or integrate GTS-inspired verification and contracting workflows into existing systems.
Evaluate specific industry applications through limited projects measuring efficiency, verification accuracy, administrative costs, and operational performance.
Explore broader commercialization arrangements, including potential intellectual-property acquisition discussions, subject to due diligence and ownership rights.
Companies can engage with GTS in two primary ways, depending on their existing engineering capabilities and how much technical planning or integration assistance they want.
Path A
For companies with existing engineering capabilities
Companies with established technology platforms and engineering teams may explore licensing applicable GTS patented methods for integration into existing products or development of new commercial applications. Following technical and legal evaluation, the parties could negotiate defined licensing rights, commercial terms, and implementation responsibilities. The licensee would typically manage development, deployment, and ongoing operation of its own system.
Licensing remains subject to verification of current patent ownership, licensing authority, applicable claims, and contractual terms.
Path B
For companies seeking technical planning or integration assistance
Organizations interested in GTS technology may begin with a scoped feasibility assessment to identify relevant patent elements, technical requirements, integration opportunities, and measurable business objectives. The partner's engineering team or an agreed development provider could then build and evaluate a controlled pilot, with GTS providing agreed technical coordination and patent-related input. If the pilot demonstrates sufficient value, the parties may negotiate commercial licensing and broader implementation.
The four stages below primarily describe the collaborative development path. They are not mandatory: a company pursuing direct patent licensing may negotiate rights without commissioning a feasibility assessment or pilot through GTS.
Specific responsibilities, technical deliverables, development ownership, and intellectual-property rights would be established through negotiated agreements.
GTS is not represented as offering a production-ready software SDK, hosted API, software platform, or fully staffed implementation organization. Specific technical resources and responsibilities would be defined through negotiated agreements.
Depending on the engagement, commercial arrangements may include paid feasibility assessments, partner-funded pilots, upfront licensing fees, ongoing royalties, or broader strategic IP agreements.
Whether your organization is interested in technology licensing, a development partnership, a pilot program, or a broader strategic opportunity, we welcome an introductory discussion.
