📊 Example output (real run)

A real record from a live run — clean structured data, exported as CSV / JSON / Excel or via API.

75,000+ active, licensed Washington State contractors — every trade, one dataset. Pulled straight from the WA Department of Labor & Industries' own public contractor registry (data.wa.gov), not a third-party copy. General contractors, HVAC/refrigeration, roofing, landscaping, concrete, masonry, remodeling, handyman, painting, flooring, fencing, siding, and more — filter by trade specialty and city, get back clean, CRM-ready leads with a 99.9%+ phone-number fill rate.

Most contractor-lead tools scrape a single trade board or a fragile directory site. This Actor hits the state's own open-data extract of its license system directly — official, current, no login, no CAPTCHA, no anti-bot risk.
