Know which Central Texas permits are worth a call.
See the rows before your competitors hear about the job. CTX turns public permit filings into a weekly radar — who filed, where work is starting, and the next useful move for your trade or territory — with free tools to turn a signal into a note, bid, job, or crew follow-up.
Public records cleaned into buyer-ready signals
A weekly radar built from real permit movement.
The permit is not the sale. It is the early signal that shows where demand may be forming, which accounts are active, and what follow-up could be worth a look.
If a county returns zero rows or errors in a given week, we say so in the radar instead of padding the numbers.
Weekly Permit Radar
Public permit rows cleaned into useful signals by county, trade, location, applicant, and work type.
Sample-First Sales
Send a focused radar slice before asking for a commitment, so buyers can see whether the rows fit their market.
Follow-Up Triggers
Turn a permit into the next useful action: a supplier call, bid note, site check, territory review, or BD follow-up.
Free Work Tools
Notes, bids, jobs, crew time, and permit viewing stay available as practical tools around the radar.
Turn the signal into the next move.
CTX keeps the basic pieces close together: permit view, client notes, bid builder, job tracker, and crew clock. The tools support the radar instead of pretending to replace your whole company system.

This is what a radar slice looks like.
Representative rows in the exact format buyers receive: the permit fact stays separate from our read on it, and every highlighted row carries a next move. Your sample uses live rows for your county and trade.
Permit facts on the left, the next move on the right
| County | Permit type | Work summary | Buyer fit | Next move |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TRAVIS | Residential remodel | Full interior remodel with electrical and plumbing scope | Trades / suppliers | Trade follow-up: electrical and plumbing subs quote early, suppliers open an account conversation. |
| BEXAR | Utility permit | Utility and sitework filing tied to a larger development tract | Suppliers / rental / civil | Flag for aggregate, rental, concrete, and traffic-control outreach before mobilization. |
| TRAVIS | New residential build | Repeat production builder filing another batch of new starts | Builders / GC / pro services | Account movement: a repeat applicant is a relationship call, not a cold pitch. |
| COMAL | Driveway / ROW | Right-of-way and driveway activity clustered near new subdivisions | Solo trades / site prep | Cluster signal: concrete and site-prep crews work the same street while equipment is staged. |
| BEXAR | Commercial alteration | Tenant finish-out with mechanical scope in a retail corridor | Specialty trades / pro services | Bid-timing signal: HVAC and fire-protection subs call the GC before the buyout closes. |
Priced against what missing the right work costs.
CTX is sold as annual market coverage: see a sample, prove the fit, then lock in the radar for the territory and buyer type that matters. Monthly is there if you want to prove the value one cycle at a time first.
