Curated lead lists made for you every weekday morning, as soon as the restaurant is ready for your help.
A restaurant that just failed an inspection has a deadline and a reason to answer the phone. One that just changed hands has not picked a vendor yet. The state publishes all of it and buries it in files nobody reads. We read them every weekday and send your trade the ones worth a call, with what the inspector actually wrote, the phone number from the license file, and a link to the report.
15 free leads, no card. $149 a month after that.

What is in every item
Pest control gets the pest citations. Ice machine companies get the moldy ice machines, plumbers get the leaks and the missing hot water, and refrigeration techs get the coolers that won't hold temperature, and hood cleaners get the greasy hoods and expired hood stickers in Miami-Dade, New York City and Boston. Everyone gets the openings, new licenses and owner changes in their counties. In Miami-Dade, Hillsborough and Osceola counties and the cities of Miami, Orlando and Tampa, every list except hood cleaning also carries the building permits filed for restaurant build-outs, the earliest sign a new kitchen is coming. Florida lists also carry open government bids for your trade: schools, counties, colleges and hospitals asking for pest control, plumbing, refrigeration or kitchen work, with the due date and a link. Florida records also show the restaurant's history since July 2025: how many earlier inspections cited the same problem, and any earlier visit that ended in an emergency order or a state complaint, so you can call the repeat offenders first. Four things come with every record.
The inspector's words
What the inspector actually wrote, so you know what you're walking into before you call.
A phone number
The number from the restaurant's license or inspection record, on every item.
The official report
A link to the full inspection report wherever the state or city publishes one, with the result and the date.
A spreadsheet too
Every list is an email you can read on your phone, plus a spreadsheet for the office.
Why the timing matters
Inspection reports are public, but the state's download files leave out what the inspector wrote. Finding every live-roach citation in your county means opening each report by hand. We open every one, every morning, and send you the ones that matter.
1A written-up restaurant has a deadline
The inspector comes back to check, and the state can fine a restaurant up to $1,000 per offense or close it. That week, the owner is looking for someone who can fix it.
2New restaurants and new owners are choosing vendors
A restaurant that's about to open hasn't picked a pest company yet. Neither has a new owner who inherited the old one.
3Five companies per county, at most
We send each county's list to no more than five companies. A restaurant hears from a few good options, not twenty.

Questions
Which trades is it for?
Pest control, ice machine service, commercial plumbing and refrigeration repair each get the citations for their own trade. Restaurant suppliers get the openings, new licenses and ownership changes. Everyone gets the openings too, because a restaurant that is about to open has not picked its vendors yet.
Where does this come from?
State restaurant regulators (in Florida, the Department of Business and Professional Regulation) publish every restaurant inspection, new license, construction plan review, alcohol license and ownership change, and Florida counties and cities publish building permits at restaurant addresses. We collect those records every morning, pull out the ones that matter for your trade, and add the phone number from the state's license file.
Couldn't I look this up myself?
One restaurant at a time, yes. The state's download files don't include what the inspector wrote, so you would be opening reports by hand every day. Ours is instant and constantly scanning for new reports. Every record is compiled from the inspection report, the state license file, ownership records and our own database of 69,000 licensed restaurants. Invalid phone numbers are removed, and office lines are flagged. The restaurants most likely to need you are highlighted at the top.
Is it legal to use?
These are public records under state public records laws. How you contact a restaurant is up to you and the usual rules apply: don't autodial or text cell numbers without consent, and follow the CAN-SPAM Act if you email. The terms spell it out.
What if the restaurant already fixed it?
Some items get fixed during the visit, and the list says so when the inspector noted it. It's still a restaurant that had pests last week, and that's a good reason to call.
Do you contact the restaurants?
No. We never contact the restaurants, and we don't sell to them.
Which counties?
Central Florida (Orange, Seminole, Osceola, Lake, Volusia, Brevard), Tampa Bay (Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Manatee, Sarasota), South Florida (Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach), Southwest Florida (Lee, Collier), Northeast Florida (Duval, St. Johns), New York City (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, Staten Island), Boston and Raleigh (Wake County, NC). Ask for any other county and we will tell you when it is ready.
I work the whole state. Do I have to pick three counties?
No. Statewide is $449 a month: you select your state and get every county we cover in it. It is the right plan if you have trucks in more than one market. If three counties is genuinely all you cover, stay on $149 and keep the difference.
Will I keep seeing the same restaurants every week?
No. We record every record we send you and never send it to you again, for as long as you are a subscriber. If a restaurant is cited twice, the second citation is a new record and you get it, because that is news. A quiet week means a quiet week, not a filtered one, and the subject line says so.
Are these leads that asked to hear from me?
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. These are timing signals from the state's own records: a restaurant that was just cited, just licensed, just sold. Nobody filled in a form asking for a call. What you get is the reason to call and the day it happened, which is what a cold call is missing.
