Stop scrolling raw permit lists. This Actor scans fresh building permits across 8 major US cities, classifies them by trade, scores every lead 0-100, and delivers only the ones worth your time.

Who is this for?

Suppliers & service providers (building materials, equipment rental, dumpsters, insurance, financing): get active job sites with contractor name and phone, sorted by project value.

Contractors (roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, solar, remodel): find high-value projects without an assigned contractor — homeowners and GCs who still need subs, the week the permit drops.

How scoring works

Each lead gets a transparent 0-100 score and tier (A/B/C):

SignalPoints
Project valuation ($10K → $500K+)up to 40
Recency (issued last 7 days scores highest)up to 30
Contractor identified + phone (supplier mode)up to 25
No contractor assigned yet (contractor mode)20
Trade matched from official permit type10

Every score comes with human-readable reasons — no black box.

Cities & data quality

Austin (contractor+phone ~90%), Seattle (valuations 100%), Denver, Chicago, NYC, SF, LA, Fort Worth. Official city open-data sources, refreshed daily by most cities. Trade classification is deterministic (keyword rules on official permit types + descriptions) — no AI hallucinations in your lead list.

Tips

  • Schedule it daily with daysBack: 7 — fresh A-tier leads in your inbox/CRM every morning (works with Google Sheets, webhooks, Make/Zapier/n8n integrations)
  • Start with minScore: 50 (B+ leads only) to keep volume manageable
  • Supplier mode + Austin/Denver = leads with direct phone numbers

Pricing

Pay per qualified lead delivered — scanning and filtering is free; you only pay for leads that pass your score threshold.
