Short-Term Rental Permit Data — the official city registry, not listings

Marketplace scrapers give you Airbnb listings. They can't give you the one field that matters for compliance, underwriting, and legality checks: the city's own record of whether a short-term rental is licensed, active, expired, or revoked. This tool pulls that official permit registry — unified into one schema across cities — priced per record.
