Vermont Professional License Lookup & Leads Scraper (OPR)

Pain points

• OPR's Profession Roster Download hands out one spreadsheet per licence type: 449 types across 52 professions (checked 2026-11-03). Each one means picking the profession, the type and the status boxes again, so a full list is hundreds of downloads.
• The Licensee Lookup shows 10 results a page and no address; the address is only in the roster spreadsheets.
• The spreadsheets mix every status unless you untick them: of 340,072 rows on 2026-11-03, 246,719 were Expired licences.

What we solve

• Every non-empty roster in one dataset: 347 licence types across 52 professions, 340,072 licences on November 3, 2026 (90,253 Active or Active-InRenewal), filterable by profession, licence type, status and city.
• One clean table: holder name, licence number exactly as printed, profession, licence type, status, mailing street, city, state, ZIP, first issuance, effective and expiry dates, and where OPR records them the branch, employer and supervisor.
• Looks up names or licence numbers across the professions you pick (a number can appear under several licence types; each comes back as its own row).

Summary

Vermont Office of Professional Regulation licences in one dataset: every roster OPR publishes in its Profession Roster Download, 347 licence types from 52 professions (Nursing, Pharmacy, Engineering, Real Estate, Residential Contractors, Allied Mental Health, Dental, Notaries Public and more). Each row has the holder's name, licence number, profession and licence type, status, mailing street address, city, state and ZIP, first issuance, effective and expiry dates, and where OPR records them the business branch, employer and supervisor. Street addresses fill about 94% of rows; OPR publishes no phone or email. On November 3, 2026 the rosters held 340,072 licences, 90,253 of them Active or Active-InRenewal; Residential Contractors held 1,653 active licences. Filter by status to get only live licences. Pay only per licence returned.

Limitations & updates

Covers the licensees in the Vermont Office of Professional Regulation's Profession Roster Download: 347 licence types from 52 professions, every status. No physicians (a separate board), no phone or email; street address on about 94% of rows. Data comes from a stored copy of the rosters (its date is in the run log), not a live read. One run returns at most 100,000 rows; split larger exports by profession.

FAQ

Where does the data come from?

The Profession Roster Download of the Vermont Office of Professional Regulation (sos.vermont.gov, Find a Professional), one spreadsheet per licence type with every status. We download every roster and serve it from a stored copy; the run log gives its date.

Is there a phone or email?

No. OPR's rosters carry a mailing address, not a phone or email. Street addresses fill about 94% of rows (checked 2026-11-03).

Which professions are covered?

All 52 OPR professions with a non-empty roster, 347 licence types: Nursing, Pharmacy, Engineering, Real Estate, Residential Contractors, Allied Mental Health, Social Work, Dental, Architects, Accountancy, Notaries Public, Barbers & Cosmetologists and more. Put professions in Profession, or exact licence types in Licence type; leave both empty for everything. Physicians (MD) are licensed by the Board of Medical Practice and are not in OPR's rosters.

Does it include contractors?

Yes: OPR's Residential Contractors profession, as two licence types, Residential Contractor - Business and Residential Contractor - Individual (1,653 active licences on 2026-11-03). Set Licence type to those two and Status to Active, Active-InRenewal.

Are expired or inactive licences included?

Yes, every status OPR publishes: Active, Active-InRenewal, Expired, Inactive per Request, Suspended, Revoked and others. Most rows are Expired, so set Status to Active and Active-InRenewal for a live list.

How do I look up a person or a licence number?

Put names or licence numbers in queries and set mode to lookup. A name matches if it is contained in the holder's name; a number matches exactly. Narrow it with Profession or Licence type.

How current is it?

Rows come from a stored copy of OPR's rosters, refreshed when it is over 30 days old and the actor is in use. The run log states the date of the copy you received, and a copy older than 45 days adds a free notice saying so.

How am I charged?

One event per licence returned. Notices are free.

Works with AI assistants (MCP)

Callable as an MCP tool, so Claude, Cursor, VS Code Copilot and other MCP clients can run it directly. Grab the config from the MCP tab on this page — Apify hosts the server and keeps that snippet current, and OAuth signs you in on first connect, so no API token goes in your config file.

Then just ask:

"List active Vermont residential contractors licensed by the Office of Professional Regulation, with their mailing addresses."

That is the two Residential Contractor licence types with Status Active and Active-InRenewal (1,653 licences on 2026-11-03). Keep maxResults small on a first call. Runs started this way bill exactly like any other run.

Data & lawful use

This actor collects publicly available information that the Vermont Office of Professional Regulation (OPR) publishes for public lookup — licence records, business listings and the contact details professionals list there. Some of it identifies individuals (sole proprietors, licence holders, agents), so treat any names, phone numbers and emails in your results as personal data.

When you run this actor, you decide what is collected and what it is used for, so you are the controller of that data and we act only as your processor (Apify Standard Actor Contract). You need a lawful basis for your use, must honour opt-out and deletion requests, and must follow the marketing rules that apply to you (CAN-SPAM, TCPA, GDPR, CCPA and similar). Don't use the output for unsolicited bulk messaging, for screening covered by the FCRA, or for anything the source's own terms forbid.

Your results are stored in your own Apify account. We don't keep a copy of your results and don't sell or share them.
