Questions about Central Texas permit leads
Coverage, freshness, what is free, pricing, billing and support.
What is CTX Permit Lane?
Building permit leads for contractors and suppliers in Central Texas. We pull public permit filings, clean them, score each one 0 to 100 for how worth a call it is, and show who filed, where the work is, and which trade it opens next.
Where does the permit data come from?
Public building permit records published by counties and cities along the Central Texas I-35 corridor, including the City of Austin's open data. Nothing is invented; every row is a filed permit.
Which areas are covered?
Central Texas along the I-35 corridor, county by county. A county is added once it runs weekly, and each one publishes on its own cycle.
How often does the data update?
The radar is built every Tuesday and refreshed every Friday. A paid plan shows every permit filed in the last 90 days, including this week's.
What do I get for free?
A free account opens all five tools (Lead Viewer, Crew Clock, Bid Builder, Job Tracker and Client Notes) and a sample of 10 leads filed 45 to 90 days ago. The free sample changes every Monday. It is not the current radar.
Do I need an account to use the tools?
Yes. The tools are free, but they need a sign-in so your jobs, bids and crew records stay yours.
How do I get a sample of current leads?
Request one with your area and trade. We pull it by hand and email it from radar@ctxpermitlane.com within one business day.
How much does it cost?
Plans run from $1,000 a year ($100 a month) for Solo / Trades up to $6,000 a year ($600 a month) for Builders / GC Enterprise. Annual and monthly billing are both available at checkout.
How do I cancel, and do you give refunds?
Cancel anytime from Plan & billing. Monthly plans stop at the end of the month; annual plans stay active to the end of the paid year, with no refund for unused months.
Where do I manage my subscription, card and invoices?
In your dashboard under Plan & billing. It opens Stripe's billing page, where you can update your card, download invoices or cancel.
What happens after I pay?
Your account switches to the paid plan as soon as Stripe confirms the payment, and Lead Viewer shows current coverage on your next load. A receipt comes from Stripe by email.
How do I get help?
Email radar@ctxpermitlane.com. We answer within one business day.
What does the lead score mean?
A 0 to 100 estimate of how worth a call a filing is, from the type of work and whether the filing names a contact and a contractor. Higher means call it sooner. It is guidance, not a promise of work.
