Be the first subcontractor calling the builder. Austin permits name the builder, electrician, plumber and HVAC contractor. Framers, roofers, drywall, paint, flooring, fence and landscaping crews never pull one, so the builder still has to hire them. Every morning by 7:00 am, Fortific sends you the new jobs that need your trade, with the builder’s name and number.
Commercial remodel of tenant space for office.
New in-ground swimming pool with 160 square feet.
New 2-story single-family residence.
Every dot is a permit Austin issued in the last seven days. Each one is a job someone else already won, and 630 of them still need trades the permit doesn’t name.

Austin publishes every permit it issues. We pull the full feed each morning, so nothing slips past.
Each permit is decoded into plain English and checked against every sub-permit on the job, so we know which contractors are named and which trades it still needs.
Only jobs that need what you sell, in your ZIP codes, each with a one-line reason it's yours and the builder's phone. Plus a CSV for your CRM or dialer.

Yes, and that's the point. Austin names four contractors on a job: the builder, the electrician, the plumber and the HVAC contractor. Every other trade the job needs never pulls a permit: framing, roofing on new builds, drywall, paint, flooring, cabinets, windows, fence, landscaping, cleanup, dumpsters. The builder still has to hire all of them, and their name and number are on the permit. Those are the jobs we send you, never one where your trade is already on file.
Most lists sort permits by the trade on the permit, so a roofer gets a list of roofs other roofers already sold. We sort by the trades the job still needs. We check every sub-permit filed for the job so we never send you one where your trade is already named, and every lead says in one line why it's yours.
Trades that work for builders (framing, concrete, roofing, drywall, paint, flooring, cabinets, windows). Outdoor trades whose work follows someone else's, like a fence or landscaping after a new pool, or gutters or solar after a re-roof. And the services every site needs: dumpsters, cleanup, materials. Electricians, plumbers and HVAC contractors get jobs where nobody in their trade is on file yet.
No phone numbers. Most leads are the contractor running the job, with their phone when the city lists it, which is most of the time. For work that follows a job, like a fence after a new pool, you get the owner of record and their mailing address from the Travis Central Appraisal District's public tax roll, ready for a mailer, plus whether they live there and when they bought. Owners who've had the appraisal district keep their records confidential are never included.
Public building permit records published by the City of Austin, pulled every morning at 6am Central, and owner records from the Travis Central Appraisal District's certified tax roll. We read every record and every sub-permit, so you don't have to dig through the city portal.
Job address and ZIP, a plain-English description, a one-line reason it's a lead for your trade, the job value when the city records it, the contractor running the job and their phone when listed, the owner's mailing address for work that follows the job, and a link to the official permit.
