Site-work leads before the permitsKnox County, TN
92 days before the permit

The developer hasn't picked
a grader yet.
You're three months early.

Every week we read every Knox County planning filing and every state stormwater permit, and send you the site-work projects with a public decision coming up — acreage, lot count, the applicant, the assigned planner's direct line, and the stamped site plan you can estimate from.

By the time a job reaches you as a bid invite, the developer has a grader he already likes and you're the price check. This is the same job, 92 days earlier — measured against real Knox filings, not estimated.

$99/month, Knox County. Your first list goes out the same day you subscribe, not next Monday. Six qualified projects in 30 days or you don't pay.

Do the arithmetic

It doesn't have to work every week.
It has to work once.

Pick the last subdivision package you bid — the grading, the haul-off, the pads. You know what that number is. We don't, and we're not going to invent one for a landing page.

Now put it next to $99. If one filing out of the hundreds we send you over a year turns into one job you'd otherwise have heard about as a bid invite, the year paid for itself several times over and you can stop reading here.

Two things this is not
  • It's not secret data. All of it is public. Anyone claiming otherwise is lying to you. What's scarce is somebody willing to read a 70-item agenda PDF every month and pull out the dirt work.
  • It's not a promise that you'll win the job. That's your pricing, your crews, your relationships. We promise the filing, early and accurate, with someone to call — and we refund you if we don't deliver it.
How it works

Three steps you'd otherwise do yourself

  1. 01

    We read the filings

    Every monthly planning agenda, every case detail page behind it, and the state stormwater permit register. Thirty to seventy Knox cases a month, most of which are nothing to do with you.

  2. 02

    We pull out what matters

    Acreage, lot count, the applicant, the utility district, the assigned planner and their direct line, the hearing date, and the stamped site plan — standardized, mapped, and tagged by trade.

  3. 03

    You get the short list

    Only projects tagged for your trade with a decision on the public calendar. One email, Monday morning. Nothing to log into, nothing to learn. Your current backlog arrives the day you subscribe.

A real lead

This is the whole product.

Not a mockup. Briggs Station is a genuine filing heard by the Knox County Planning Commission, and every field on the card came out of public records. Every link opens the county's or the state's own page. Go open one — the pitch is that it holds up.

  • 94 acres, 131 lots, with 49 acres of documented disturbance
  • A decision date already on the public calendar, so you know how long you have
  • The applicant of record — plus a business phone or named principal where one is published, each linked to its source
  • The assigned county planner's direct line, on every lead without exception
  • The stamped site plan you can put a number against

Trades marked confirmed are stated in the case file. Ones marked inferredlikely we worked out from the zoning change, and we label them so you can weight them differently. Roughly one tag in five is confirmed; we don't dress the rest up as more than they are.

Coverage

Four trades, five contractors each

A lead list sold to everyone is worth nothing. We cap each trade at five contractors per county and then close the slot — which caps this county at twenty customers, on purpose.

Filings tagged for each trade across the four weeks to Sep 10, 2026. A filing appears under every trade it needs, which is why the columns overlap — one subdivision usually needs all four. Of these, 5 currently have a decision scheduled, between Sep 21 and Oct 1. We don't sell a commercial HVAC tier: Knox filings are overwhelmingly residential and it wouldn't be worth your money.

The guarantee

Six qualified projects in 30 days, or you don't pay.

If your first four digests don't contain at least six qualified leads, reply with the word refund and we return your first month in full, within three business days. No form, no call, no questions. You keep every lead we sent.

A qualified lead means all six
  1. 1In your county
  2. 2Tagged for your trade
  3. 35 acres or more, or 5+ acres of documented disturbance
  4. 4Has a street address we can put on a map
  5. 5Has someone reachable — applicant, engineer, or the case planner
  6. 6No building permit issued yet

Every lead is labelled, so you count them yourself. We don't get to decide after the fact whether something counted.

And here's the month it would have failed

Over the last 12 months Knox produced between 5 and 20 qualifying filings a month, median 10. One of those 12 months came in under six. If you happen to subscribe into a month like that, the guarantee does exactly what it says and the month is free. We'd rather you knew that going in than found out in an argument.

Questions

Straight answers, including the unflattering ones

This is public record. Couldn't I just find it myself?

You could. It's 30 to 70 items a month spread across monthly agenda PDFs, a separate detail page per case, and a state permit portal with no usable search. You're not paying for secret data — there isn't any. You're paying to not spend Saturday morning on it, every week, forever.

How many leads should I actually expect?

Over the last 12 months Knox produced between 5 and 20 filings a month that clear our bar, median 10. Not all of them will be tagged for your trade. We guarantee six in your first 30 days because six sits below almost every month we've measured — see the guarantee, we publish the worst month too.

Do you have the developer's phone number?

Not always, and we won't pretend otherwise. What's on every lead is the direct line of the county planner assigned to the case — they'll tell you who the civil engineer is, and the engineer is who specifies the dirt work. Where the applicant or their engineer has published business contact details, those are on the lead too, each with a link to where we found it.

How far ahead is this, really?

About three months. We measured it rather than guessing: matching Knox planning cases against the stormwater permits those same projects later filed, the median gap was 92 days across 30 matched pairs. Some are a few weeks. Some run past eight months.

How do I know the information is right?

Check it. Every lead links to the county's own case file and the stamped site plan, every discovered contact links to its source, and every trade tag is marked either confirmed — the case file says so — or likely, meaning we inferred it from the zoning change and told you we did. Nothing on a lead asks you to take our word for it.

What if a project is residential and I only do commercial?

Then this is a poor fit and we'd rather lose the sale than take it. Knox filings are overwhelmingly residential subdivisions. It's a strong fit for site work on those: grading, utilities, paving, flatwork.

Why cap it at five contractors per trade?

Because a lead list sold to everyone is worth nothing to anyone. Five per trade per county, then the slot closes. That cap costs us most of the revenue in this county, which is the point — it's the difference between selling you an advantage and selling you a mailing list.

What if I want out?

Cancel from the billing portal, no email required, no notice period. You keep every lead we ever sent you. There's no contract to get out of because there's no contract.

5 Knox projects go before the Planning Commission between Sep 21 and Oct 1.

68 acres between them. Once a decision is handed down the developer moves to engineering and pricing, and by then he has already talked to somebody. The list is on your desk today if you want it.

Six qualified projects in 30 days or you don't pay. One of five slots in your trade.
