Comparison

# PermitVector vs PermitDrop

If you're weighing PermitDrop for Texas markets, here's the honest difference in approach.

## PermitDrop

exclusive permit lead service

Sells exclusive permit leads at $3/lead — homeowner name and phone number within 24h of filing. Currently live in Austin and Chicago, with Dallas listed as “Coming Soon.” At 50 leads/mo you’re spending ~$150/mo on exclusive contacts, one at a time.

## PermitVector

daily Texas adjacent-buyer permit feed

Flat monthly, unlimited permits, all 10 live Texas markets today. Rather than selling you a single contact, we surface the permit signal and the adjacent-buyer opportunity — a new roof means a solar installer should call. PermitDrop is best for a curated exclusive contact list in Austin; PermitVector is best for volume + adjacency across Texas.

Both can have a place in your stack. PermitVector's edge is timing and adjacency across Texas: public-record permits, classified and mapped to the trade that should act, delivered as a daily brief from $199/mo.
