The problem it takes off your plate

Every morning, PourWatch pulls newly issued building permits from public city and county records near you, scores them against your trade, and puts the hot ones at the top of your list. You see the address, what is being built, how big the job is and how many days ago the permit was issued. Then you call, before the job gets shopped around.

It is built for the contractor who is the boss, the tech, the bookkeeper and the dispatcher in one truck. Pick your trade (pest and termite, concrete, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, landscape or general) and the list changes. Off-trade permits stay hidden, and the app tells you how many it filtered out.

When a city stops publishing, PourWatch says so instead of quietly showing you a short list. Permit data comes from public records that cities and counties publish, so coverage varies by jurisdiction; the live list is on pourwatch.com/coverage.

What's in the app

Fresh permits, scored for your trade

Inside your driving radius, refreshed every morning, ranked by how recent, how relevant and how big the job is.

Hundreds of cities and counties

Public permit records from more than 300 cities and counties across the country, with the full list published on pourwatch.com.

One tap to call, one to navigate

Mark a lead called, saved or not a fit, and the list remembers.

Run the work, not just the leads

Today's route in service order, visit logs with photos and voice notes, customer history and gate codes.

Invoices and route profit

Draft, sent, paid and past due at a glance, and which accounts actually pay for the drive.

Expenses for tax time

Mapped to Schedule C lines, with one-tap mileage logging and a year-end export.

How people use it

The morning call list

Coffee, then the top of the list: permits issued in the last three days, in your trade, in your radius. Call the builder before anyone else does.

ii.

Before the slab is poured

A pest and termite operator sees the new foundation permit and offers the pre-treat while it can still be done, not after the house is framed.

iii.

Knowing which accounts pay

Route profit per account shows which customers are worth the drive and which ones quietly cost you money.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the permit data come from?+

Public records. PourWatch reads the building permits that cities and counties publish through their open-data portals and permit systems. It does not scrape private data, and coverage depends on what each jurisdiction publishes.

Is my city covered?+

The current list of covered cities and counties is on pourwatch.com/coverage. If a covered city stops publishing, the app tells you instead of showing an empty day.

What does it cost?+

$49 a month after a 30-day free trial, billed on pourwatch.com. The trial is long on purpose: a permit takes weeks to turn into a booked job.

Which trades does it support?+

Pest and termite, concrete, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, landscape and general contracting. The list re-ranks when you change trades.

Who makes it

PourWatch is published by ALSTIG INC, founded by Ben Mouton, who spent 36 years in restaurants, 14 owning his own, before selling Mouton's Bistro & Bar in 2026 to build software full time. The restaurant apps came from that run. PourWatch is built the same way: for the person who does the work and runs the business from the same truck, priced plainly, with no contracts.
