Could you build this?

Partial The core application (tracking state filings, form filling, automated renewals) is largely CRUD and LLM document handling, but navigating the labyrinthine, changing regulatory statutes of 50 distinct US state licensing boards (NMLS, NIPR) requires substantial legal domain verification.

What it would actually take: Stack would be a web dashboard (Next.js/PostgreSQL) with document processing pipelines (unstructured data extraction, PDF form auto-filling via Puppeteer or specialized PDF SDKs). The hard part is building and maintaining precise state-by-state statutory rule engines, surety bond tracking, and integrating directly into legacy state filing systems or automating headless NMLS/NIPR portal submissions.
