The Permit Sheet vs Construction Monitor

A fact-based comparison. Both tools can be the right answer — it depends on how you work.

How Construction Monitor works

Established provider — decades in the permit-data business with wide US coverage.
Weekly report cadence: permit data arrives as a batch, typically days after filing.

Minutes, not weeks: city feeds are checked every 10 minutes during the day. The first contractor to call usually wins the job — a weekly batch means you're calling second.
Built for the phone in your pocket: real-time email alerts filtered to your trade, not a spreadsheet to dig through on Monday.
AI scope summaries and trade routing turn raw filings into a call list.
Modern per-city depth: property attributes, verified contractor license data, weekly digests per city.

Pick Construction Monitor if: You want the widest national coverage and weekly batches fit your workflow.

Pick The Permit Sheet if: Speed matters in your market and you want today's permits today.

See it on your own market first — the free plan shows real permits from your city on a 7-day delay.
