Yesterday’s permits.
This morning’s opportunities.
Permits Central monitors official building-permit sources, finds newly published construction activity, and delivers the opportunities to contractors in the markets they subscribe to.
- Official government permit sources
- New permits monitored automatically
- Built for contractors
- Starting at $149/month per market
The problem
Stop checking city permit websites
Building permit data is public, but it’s scattered across different city and county systems. Permits Central handles that work.
- Searching city websites
- Learning municipal data portals
- Downloading spreadsheets
- Checking APIs
- Comparing yesterday vs. today
- Figuring out which permits matter to your trade
How it works
01
We monitor the permits
Permits Central checks official government permit sources in supported markets.
02
We find what’s new
We collect, organize, deduplicate and classify newly published permit activity.
03
You get the opportunities
New permit opportunities arrive in your dashboard and, when enabled, your inbox.
What you actually receive
Every opportunity comes from an official permit record. Pro adds the details that help you decide which ones to chase first.

All marketsQuestions
- Is there a free trial?
- Every new market subscription starts with a free trial of 3 permit reports. You are charged only after all 3 trial reports have been delivered — weekends and days without a valid report never count. Cancel before your free trial ends to avoid being charged. Once your paid subscription begins, subscription payments are non-refundable.
- Are these homeowner leads?
- No. Permit records reflect construction activity filed with a government agency. They are not requests for estimates, and a property owner may not want contractor contact.
- Where does the permit data come from?
- From official city and county permit sources. Each market page names its source and its actual update cadence.
- Is every market updated daily?
- No. Sources publish on different schedules. We only sell a market once its source is validated, and we never call a weekly source daily.
- What is the difference between Core and Pro?
- Core ($99/month/market) helps you find the work: new permits, address, type, description, basic trade matches and 60 days of history. Pro ($149/month/market) adds valuation, contractor and permit-holder details when published, Opportunity Score, match reasoning, advanced filters, full history and export. Both are limited-time founding customer prices.
