Industry classification review tasks

Middesk summarizes industry classification results as review tasks on the Business object’s review.tasks array. These tasks turn raw industry data into a single decision-ready outcome — useful when your underwriting flow needs to flag businesses operating in restricted or higher-risk verticals (for example, cannabis, gambling, or money services).

Each task carries a status, a sub_label, and a human-readable message. Combined with the underlying industry_classification object, you have both the summary signal and the full classification detail with NAICS, SIC, and MCC codes.

This page describes the industry classification review task types, statuses, and messages.
