Comparison
PermitVector vs Construction Monitor
If you're weighing Construction Monitor, here's the honest difference in approach.
Construction Monitor
national weekly permit database
A broad national permit database going back to 1992, delivered as weekly PDFs or CSVs by email. Single-trade subscriptions start around $94/mo; all-permits runs ~$500/mo. You do the cross-trade mapping by hand, and last weekβs data arrives this week.
PermitVector
daily adjacent-buyer permit feed
Tuned to our live markets and daily. A permit filed yesterday is in your feed by 6 AM, while the homeowner is still days from picking a contractor. Every permit is pre-classified by trade and pre-mapped to the adjacent buyer who should act on it, so you spend zero time filtering. No manual cross-referencing required.
Both can have a place in your stack. PermitVector's edge is timing and adjacency across every market it covers: public-record permits, classified and mapped to the trade that should act, delivered as a daily brief from $99/mo.
