Public records, 100% legal, no anti-bot, no proxies, no login — this data source can't break the way scrapers of protected sites do.

Who buys this data

  • Building material suppliers — find projects the week they're permitted
  • Subcontractors — see which GCs just won work near you
  • Insurance & finance — new construction activity by area, cost and type
  • Solar / HVAC / roofing companies — filter permits by keyword ("solar", "roof", "HVAC")
  • Market analysts & PropTech — construction trends by city, cost and category

  • Minimum project cost — go after the big fish only
  • Only with contacts — ready-to-call leads exclusively

Data comes from each city's official Socrata open-data portal — the same records the city publishes for transparency, normalized so your team doesn't have to learn 4 different schemas.
