Purpose-built preparation

Catch the issue before DIR data entry.

DIR supports direct online entry and XML upload. WagePilot sits before that submission step, checking the payroll and showing which records need correction or additional context.

01

Field completeness

Check worker, payroll-period, craft, classification, hours, rate, fringe, and gross-pay inputs before preparation.

02

California rule review

Compare supplied values and expose missing coverage. California daily overtime, double time, apprentice eligibility and ratios require separate professional review.

03

Structured exceptions

Resolve findings through evidence, rule, calculation, review limitations, and a proposed next action.

04

Cleaner DIR preparation

Use corrected source payroll for direct entry or an XML-generation workflow outside the current diagnostic.

One repeatable path

From payroll export to reporting preparation.

  1. 1
    Payroll data

    Upload the WH-347, CSV, XLSX, or payroll register you already have.

  2. 2
    California checks

    Attach project context and the supplied California determination.

  3. 3
    Exception review

    Correct incomplete, inconsistent, or underpaid worker records upstream.

  4. 4
    DIR preparation

    Carry reviewed data into direct entry or the required XML workflow.

Validation boundaryThe diagnostic cannot establish California compliance or DIR readiness. Daily overtime, double time, apprentices and certification require professional review. WagePilot does not generate DIR XML, file eCPRs or select the determination.

One payroll is enough to start

Give WagePilot one payroll.

01

Upload

Use a WH-347, CSV, XLSX, or payroll export.

02

WagePilot checks it

Rules handle arithmetic; contextual review handles ambiguity.

03

Review exceptions

Clean entries disappear into the background.

Evidence before assertion

Every exception answers three questions.

Before you upload

Clear answers to the risky questions.

Current security boundaryNothing is filed automatically, and uploaded files are not intentionally retained by WagePilot after processing.
Do I have to replace my payroll provider?

No. The launch workflow starts with a PDF, CSV, or XLSX export. Your payroll system remains the source.

Does WagePilot submit reports automatically?

No. The diagnostic does not file anything. Material decisions and regulated submissions remain with you.

What happens when the review is uncertain?

The item is surfaced with review limitations, supporting evidence, and a recommended next action for human review.

Can I see why an issue was flagged?

Yes. Findings show the source, supplied rule evidence, calculation where applicable, review limitations, and next action.

Does WagePilot calculate prevailing wages?

Code performs deterministic comparisons against wage rules you supply. The MVP does not automatically identify the legally applicable determination.

What happens to my payroll data?

Files are held only while the review runs and are deleted when it finishes. PDF files are sent to OpenAI for structured extraction and the temporary uploaded file is deleted after processing. Unless your organization turns on the optional, encrypted keeping of originals in Settings, WagePilot does not keep payroll files.

Can I use this for one project?

Yes. Start with one payroll and one project without creating an account or entering a credit card.

What states are supported?

The initial diagnostic runs a narrow supplied-rules review. California, Illinois, and New York pages describe their reporting workflows, but WagePilot does not claim complete 50-state rules or filing support.
