How it works

No software to learn. A short list lands in your inbox every Monday.

Step 1

Tell us what you sell

Your trade, the neighborhoods you cover, and the job sizes you want. It takes three minutes.

Step 2

We read the public record

DC building permits, tenant fit-outs and new business licenses. We keep the ones that fit your trade and drop the rest.

Step 3

You call first

Up to 25 tipoffs a week, each with the address, the record and its date, why it matters to you, and who to ask for.

Why this beats a lead list

One permit. A different reason to call for every trade.

A list gives you names. A tipoff tells you what just happened and what to say. Here's how the 16,728 sf build-out at 1100 15th St NW reads for each trade we serve.

Commercial cleaning

Post-construction clean before move-in, then a nightly janitorial bid for 16,728 sf.

Security & access control

Life-safety work is in the permit scope. A new tenant needs badge readers and access credentials set up before day one.

Commercial HVAC

MEP is in scope. A new floor layout needs air balancing at turnover and someone on a service contract after.

Movers & furniture

Furniture is in the permit scope, so the install and the move are weeks out. Get in before the tenant picks a vendor.

Simple pricing

Every plan starts with two weeks free. Month to month, cancel any time. A single new contract can pay for it many times over.

Questions

Where do tipoffs come from?

Official public records: DC Department of Buildings permits and new business licenses. Every tipoff links to the record it came from, so you can check it yourself.

Is this just a list from a database?

No. Each tipoff is something that happened in the last few weeks at a specific address, with a reason it matters to your trade right now. If nothing new happened, you won't get filler.

Who do I contact?

Permits rarely name a person. Each tipoff tells you which role to ask for and where: usually the tenant's office or facilities manager, or the building's property manager. When a company publishes a facilities contact, we include it.

How many will I get?

It depends on what gets filed. DC produced 22 for commercial services from Oct 1 to 28, 2026. We cap it at 25 a week and send the best fits first.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time. Plans are month to month, and the first two weeks are free.
