Every new commercial building permit $100k or more, with the project value, the address, and the general contractor's phone and website, filtered to your trade and your service area. No bid board. No enterprise contract. Just the list, in your inbox every Monday morning.
Free for 2 weeks with a card on file. Monthly plans cancel anytime online.

Real numbers from City of Austin public permit records, pulled November 8, 2026. Project values are counted once per project site; Austin repeats a master project's value on each of its building permits.
Not a newsletter about construction. The working list itself, the contractors behind it, and the file your office can actually use.
| $1.2M | Site electric for private street lighting, approx. 300,000 SF site work. Rogers O'Brien Construction · ZIP 78741 |

Project description, declared value, and address with a map link, plus the GC's name, phone, and website on every row. Top picks for your trade sit at the top, each with a one-line reason it matters to you.
The 10 most active GCs in Austin over the last 90 days, ranked by project sites, with total declared value beside each. Work the list from the top and get onto their vendor rosters before the next project starts.
Every edition ships with a clean CSV carrying every field: value, description, address, map link, GC name, phone, and website. Drop it into your CRM or spreadsheet and it becomes the week's call list.
Each trade sees the permit types that turn into its jobs, and every project carries a plain-language tag that says why it belongs on your list.
Your work starts the day the site does. The edition is timed so you hear about the project before the first container is placed on it.
Permit types tracked
How your projects get tagged
Why it matters: GCs choose their roll-off vendor early and rarely switch mid-project. A Monday list of permits issued last week is the earliest public signal there is.
Final cleans are booked well before a project finishes. The permit is your first notice that a clean will be needed at the other end of the job.
Permit types tracked
How your projects get tagged
Why it matters: by the time a building looks finished, the cleaning contract is usually already signed. The list gets you to the GC while the job is still being scoped.
On deck after the launch trades: sign shops, low-voltage and security, commercial flooring, fencing and site services, and commercial landscaping.
All week
Austin publishes new commercial building permits to its public records as they clear. Every project $100k or more enters the pool.
The weekend
We collect the week's permits and merge each project's building permits into a single project site, so one job never shows up five times.
Before Monday
Each project is matched to the general contractor's business phone and website from public business listings, then tagged for your trade.
Monday
Email and CSV in your inbox: the full project list, your trade's top picks, and the 90-day GC leaderboard. Your calls start before the site does.
All 7 project sites from the week of October 26, 2026. The public page shows value, area, and GC name. Phones, websites, and full addresses are in the edition itself.

Per company. You pay $39 a month for each city you subscribe to, whether the city record hands us the contractor's phone or our own contractor database fills it in, marked as ours. No tiers, no per-trade charges, and the price never changes because a week ran light. Up to 3 recipients at your company included.
Austin · Raleigh · Orlando · New York City · Mesa · Denver · Cincinnati · Colorado Springs · New Orleans · Baton Rouge
per month, per city. Billed monthly.
14-day free trial, card on file. Converts to the plan above unless you cancel first.
If a paid month has fewer than 10 projects for your trade at the standard $100k threshold across the city, or an edition is missed or materially wrong, that month is refunded: a full month back on monthly plans, one month of the year back on annual plans. It can happen more than once. Claiming is one email to [email protected] within 14 days after the month ends; we check our own records and pay qualifying refunds within 10 business days.
Work more than one city? Each one is the same $39 a month, all on a single subscription. Two cities with us cost less than one city at a $79 competitor.
Every city runs on its own public permit records, verified before it was added. Pick your city for its latest verified week, its coverage, and its price.
Public building permit records published by each city we cover. Where a city does not publish the contractor's phone, we add it from our own contractor database and public business listings, and mark it as ours.
Permits issued in the previous 7 days, plus late-posted permits from the prior 2 weeks.
Some permits list a person or a company we could not match to a public business listing. We would rather leave it blank than guess, and we retry every 30 days.
It is the construction cost declared on the permit, which may differ from the final contract.
Yes, anytime, from the link in any edition.
Up to 3 recipients at your company are included.
Monthly plans yes, online, effective at the end of the paid month. Annual plans are a prepaid year: stop the renewal anytime online and the plan runs to the end of the year. If a month comes up short, the performance guarantee is the refund path.
You receive the full edition for your city with no trade filter, and the performance guarantee counts you against every qualifying project site in that city for the month.
