Home services decisions get harder when contractor and property history is hard to verify.

Home services companies, contractor platforms, and the teams around them often need to know which contractors are actively pulling permits, what work has been done on a property, and where activity is shifting across a market. But that information is filed locally, one jurisdiction at a time, with no easy way to see it at scale.

Gryd helps teams use verified permit and property records to vet contractors, find opportunities, and support planning and research with real construction data.

Contractor track records are hard to verify

Self-reported experience is easy to claim and difficult to check without permit history behind it.

Qualified work is hard to spot

Finding properties with recent or upcoming work means searching permit activity across thousands of separate jurisdictions.

Property history is hard to see

Roof, HVAC, solar, and electrical work often lives only in local permit records, not in listing data or satellite imagery.

Manual research doesn't scale

Checking permit portals one property or one jurisdiction at a time slows down vetting, prospecting, and market planning.

Add verified permit and property data to contractor and home services workflows.

Gryd gives home services teams a clearer way to verify contractors, find opportunities, and understand property and market activity.

Use Gryd in the way your team works

Some teams need a searchable platform. Others need data connected to their systems. Others need large-scale files for analysis, modeling, or research. Gryd gives teams flexible ways to access verified construction intelligence.

API

Connect Gryd data to your product, platform, model, dashboard, workflow, or internal system.

Bulk Data

Verified permit records can give home services teams a more reliable view of contractor work.

A filed permit can confirm that work was approved and documented by a local authority. Contractor records show who is doing the work, and market data shows where it is happening.

Gryd brings those signals together so home services teams can use construction activity as another layer of context in vetting, prospecting, and planning.

Jurisdiction-verified activity

Permit records are tied to local authorities that approve and document construction work.

Contractor and market context

Gryd connects contractor activity with permit history and market presence where available.

Current and historical view

Teams can review both recent activity and longer-term construction patterns.

Built for scale

Gryd data can be searched directly, connected through API access, or delivered in bulk for larger workflows.
