New Business Filings Monitor — 6 Official State Sources

Get brand-new business registrations — the freshest B2B leads that exist — from six official US state government data sources in one normalized feed: NY, CO, OR, CT, PA, TX. New businesses need insurance, banking, bookkeeping, websites, equipment, and services right now; this actor tells you who they are, where they are, and (where the state publishes it) how to reach them.

No API keys, no logins, no scraping of protected portals — every record comes from an official state open-data endpoint and carries a sourceUrl and retrievedAt timestamp so you can verify it yourself.

What you get per lead

Field	Description
entityName	Registered business name
state	State the registration came from
registrationDate	Filing / formation date (ISO YYYY-MM-DD)

status	Registration status
addressLine, city, region, zip	Business address, where the source publishes it
county	County (NY, PA, TX)
registeredAgent	Registered agent (CO, OR; NY/PA where published)
businessEmail	Business email address (CT) — straight from the official registry
naicsCode	Industry NAICS code (CT) — filter leads by industry
jurisdiction	Jurisdiction of formation
filingId	The state's own filing / registry ID
sourceUrl	Link back to the official registry
sourceFreshness	Honest per-state freshness note (see below)
retrievedAt	When this record was fetched (ISO 8601)

Input

{
  "states": ["NY", "CO", "OR", "CT", "PA", "TX"],
  "daysBack": 7,
  "maxResultsPerState": 100
}

• states — any of NY, CO, OR, CT, PA, TX. Omit for all six.
• daysBack — look-back window in days (default 7). For a continuous feed, schedule the actor daily with daysBack 1–3 (NY/CO/OR/CT). PA needs daysBack 10+ because of its source's ~1-week publish lag — run PA on its own weekly schedule to avoid duplicate leads.
• sinceDate — optional fixed start date (YYYY-MM-DD); overrides daysBack.
• maxResultsPerState — cap per state (default 100, max 1,000).

Freshness, stated honestly (per state)

Every record carries its source's real cadence in sourceFreshness — we'd rather tell you a source lags than let you find out from a stale lead.

State	Source	Cadence
New York	NY DOS Active Corporations (data.ny.gov)	Updates daily
Colorado	CO SoS Business Entities (data.colorado.gov)	Updates daily; richest record (principal address + agent + full status)
Oregon	OR SoS Business Registry (data.oregon.gov)	Updates daily
Connecticut	CT Business Registry Master (data.ct.gov)	Updates daily — and uniquely publishes business email + NAICS
Pennsylvania	PA DoS Registered Businesses (data.pa.gov)	Publishes with ~1-week lag — treat PA as "recent", not same-day
Texas	TX Comptroller Active Franchise Taxpayers (data.texas.gov)	Refreshes weekly; scope = active for-profit franchise taxpayers, not the full SOS feed

Other honest limitations: states publish different fields — email/NAICS are CT-only, agent names are strongest in CO/OR, and NY's address is the service-of-process address. Where a state doesn't publish a field, it is null rather than guessed.

Typical uses

• Daily lead feed: schedule with daysBack: 2, pipe the dataset to Sheets, your CRM, or a Zapier/Make webhook.
• Territory monitoring: pick your states, filter by county or zip downstream.
• Industry targeting: CT's naicsCode lets you filter to e.g. restaurants or contractors at the source.
