What it is for

Getting new work as a contractor

A permit is a job that is funded and about to start. The contractor of record is the one who won it; the address is where the next one is. White Tape reads the permits every office publishes and hands them to you as rows.

Who it is for

The trades that follow a permit

Home integrators

Lighting control, shades, audio: the new build and the remodel before the drywall closes.

AV integrators

Theaters, conference rooms, distributed video, on the commercial and residential permit alike.

Plumbers

Every remodel, addition, and new construction permit carries plumbing scope.

HVAC

Mechanical scope on the permit, and the replacement cycle behind every addition.

Electricians

The electrical permit itself, and the general permit that needs one.

Roofers

Re-roof permits by the hundred, with the address and the week they were pulled.

How it works

Three doors

Free search

Which towns hold permits, how many this week, this month, this year. Numbers, free, no account.

Filtered search

Pick a state or a municipality, a window, a quantity. The count is free; the rows carry the contractor's name.

The API

The same rows for a program or an agent: one schema, a cursor, pay per call by wallet or a prepaid link by card. The docs.

What we care about

Data quality, security, accessibility

Quality

Every row names the office that issued it, the day it was read, and the schema it was folded into. A column that changes shape is held, not guessed.

Security

No account, no password, nothing of yours to leak. A file an office sends us is opened in a box with no network. The owner's name is never collected.

Accessibility

Ten rows a month free to anyone. A page a town that a person can read and a search engine can find. One price, per row, after the count.
