Built on the Florida permit record, built to win you jobs
More jobs for your crew. Found in the permit record before anyone else knows they exist.
One goal: put more signed work in front of you than you had last month. We read every county and city permit system in Florida, match each permit to the license behind it, and turn it into calls you can make today: the GC who pulled a master permit and hasn't picked your trade, the house that just sold with a 2009 roof, the customer you did a job for twelve years ago whose system is due again, and the ZIP where your trade's volume jumped last week.
Growth plan shown
FloridaContractorIntel turns Florida's public building-permit record into work for contractors: the permits filed in your area, where you rank against the competition in your trade, past customers whose systems are due again, homes that just sold, and new GC projects where your trade is still open. Claiming your profile is free.

What's actually in here
A building permit is the one document in construction that nobody writes for marketing. It says what was done, where, when, for how much, and who pulled it. Counties and cities publish them, each in their own format, on their own portal, with their own idea of what a contractor's name looks like.
We collect those records, tie each one to the state license that pulled it, and keep them current as the portals post. Then we do the part a spreadsheet can't: rank the companies in your trade by county, flag the jobs you did that are coming due again, spot the ZIPs where your trade's volume just jumped, and find the master permits where a GC has a job open and your trade isn't on it yet.
The permit record is the only sales list in Florida that nobody can buy twice.
The goal is your sales, not our screens
Every feature ends in a sales call. Here's what that looks like.
We don't sell dashboards. Each part of the portal exists to hand you a name, an address and a reason to call before a competitor has one. A week on Growth for a roofer in Orange County looks like this:
- Monday
- Just Sold shows 14 homes that closed in your ZIP since the 1st. Six have a roof permit older than 2010. None has a new permit since the sale. Six letters go out, two knocks on the way to a job.
- Tuesday
- Project Leads: a GC filed a master permit for a 4,200 sq ft custom build in Winter Garden Friday. No roofing permit on it. One click sends your license and track record to the general contractor's email. You bid before his usual sub hears about it.
- Wednesday
- Your Book flags three past customers whose roofs you installed in 2011 and 2012. You already have their numbers. Three calls, one appointment.
- Thursday
- Storm alert: reroof permits in 32712 tripled against baseline after last week's cell. You move the truck. Territory hands you the 25-stop walk route for that ZIP, in order.
- Friday
- Competition shows the company two slots above you just lost its qualifier's license. Their customers will need someone licensed. You're listed, verified and a call away.
Nobody filled out a form. Nobody sold the same name to four roofers. You knew first, and you made the contact.

Who gets the most out of it
- Roofers
- A reroof permit has a date on it, and a roof has a life. Territory lists the addresses in your ZIP where the last roof permit is old enough, with the owner on record and the roof size from the county.
- HVAC and plumbers
- Your past installs come due on a clock you already know. Your Book flags them the month they do. Project Leads shows the new builds where the mechanical or plumbing permit hasn't been pulled yet.
- Electricians and specialty subs
- Crew shows the general contractors near you who hire your trade, which subs they keep using, and when a GC you work under files something new.
- General contractors
- The leaderboard by county, the subs on your competitors' jobs, Just Sold for the homes that changed hands this quarter, and Horizon for what's at the planning board months before a permit exists.
- Commercial subs
- Growth Commercial: the commercial and institutional projects filed in your county and the bid window while it's still open, limited to 5 bidders per trade per county.
This isn't a lead service, and that's the point
A shared lead is a homeowner who filled in a form, sold to four contractors at once, three of whom are now calling her. We don't do that. What's here is a permit on record: a real address, a real job, a real filing date. Nobody asked us to send you. You make the contact, and you're usually the only one who knows to.
Homeowner inquiries do come in through your profile, and those are yours, included on both paid plans. But the product is the record, not the form.
We measure need, not last-minute intent. You make the contact.
Two plans. One is reading, the other is working.

Questions contractors ask
Where does the data come from?
From Florida county and municipal permitting systems, matched to the Florida DBPR license file. Coverage is broad and it is not complete. Some jurisdictions publish everything a machine can read, some publish part of it, and a few publish nothing. Every count we show is a floor for the jurisdictions we cover, which is why the portal says 'on record' and never 'total'.
Is this FloridaContractorCheck?
Same company, same database, same portal login. FloridaContractorCheck.com is the free license lookup homeowners use. FloridaContractorIntel is the contractor side: what you get when you claim your license and subscribe. If you already have a portal account, it works here.
What's the difference between Market Intel and Growth?
Market Intel is the reading: the permits around you, your rank, your competitors, your past jobs coming due, alerts and statistics. Growth is the working: one ZIP locked to you for your trade, the addresses in it past due for your work, Project Leads from GCs who haven't picked your trade yet, and Horizon from the planning boards. Growth includes everything in Market Intel.
Do you sell my address list to anyone else?
The residential addresses in a Growth ZIP go to one contractor per trade while they hold it. That's the whole point of the ZIP. Commercial projects stay visible to everyone in the area, and the county-wide commercial list is sold as limited seats, not as an exclusive ZIP.
Do I have to pay to be listed?
No. Your license is already in the database from the DBPR file. Claiming it is free and stays free: verification badge, logo, service areas, reviews you can answer, and License Watch, a heads-up email when a new permit shows up under your license number.
Can I cancel?
Any time, from the billing page, and the rate you signed up at stays yours while you're subscribed. Before you downgrade the page tells you exactly what you keep and what you lose.
Your customers already check you on FloridaContractorCheck.
Before a Florida homeowner signs, the hiring guides tell them to verify the license. When they ask Google or an AI assistant how, FloridaContractorCheck.com is where they land: the free lookup with the DBPR record and the permit history behind every licensed contractor in the state. That lookup is us.
FloridaContractorIntel is the same database turned around to face you. The record a homeowner reads to vet you is the record we read to find your next job. Claim the page your customers are already looking at, free, and the paid plans start from there.
