FAQ
Where does the data come from?
Official city and county open-data portals — the same public records anyone can request, pulled automatically every morning.
What's the lead score?
A 0-100 rank combining declared project value, how strongly the permit matches your trade, and how complete the record is. Higher = call first.
Can I contact homeowners from this?
Permit records are public, but solicitation rules vary by state and city (do-not-knock lists, mailing rules). PermitWire gives you the signal; you're responsible for how you follow up.
How do I cancel?
Every email has a manage link to the Stripe customer portal. One click, no questions.
