Comparison
PermitVector vs PermitDrop
If you're weighing PermitDrop, here's the honest difference in approach.
PermitDrop
exclusive permit lead service
Sells exclusive permit leads at $3/lead: homeowner name and phone number within 24h of filing. Currently live in Austin and Chicago, with Dallas listed as “Coming Soon.” At 50 leads/mo you are spending ~$150/mo on exclusive contacts, one at a time.
PermitVector
daily adjacent-buyer permit feed
Flat monthly across all 31 live markets in five states, with more metros opening. Rather than selling you a single contact, we surface the permit signal and the adjacent-buyer opportunity within a few days of issue. A new roof means a solar installer should call, before the homeowner has shopped. PermitDrop is best for a curated exclusive contact list in Austin; PermitVector is best for volume plus adjacency across every market we cover.
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 for $149/mo.
