Permit Tracker
New permit filings, the day they land.
Watches the permit portals you already search and tells you when a new filing matches. No refreshing, no daily lookup.
Not on the Chrome Web Store yet. The listing goes live the day it is approved, and this page updates with it.
Who it is for
Anyone whose pipeline starts the moment a permit is filed.
What you get
- New filings that match a search you saved
- Status changes on filings you are already following
- Applicant, contractor and valuation fields on each record
- More than one jurisdiction at once
How it works
- Open the permit portal and run the search you normally run.
- Click the extension and save that search.
- It re-runs the search on the interval you set.
- You get a notification when a result appears that was not there last time.
What it does not do
It reads the same pages you can already see. It does not log in for you and it does not hold your credentials.
Permissions
Every permission the extension asks for, and the reason for it. Nothing else is requested.
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
storage | Saves your searches, the items you are watching and the last result seen, so the extension can tell what is new. Stored locally in your browser. |
alarms | Schedules the background re-check on the interval you choose. Without it the extension could only check while you sat on the page. |
notifications | Shows a desktop notification when a watched page changes. No notification is sent anywhere else. |
activeTab | Reads the page you have open at the moment you click the extension icon, so it can save the search or item you are looking at. |
scripting | Reads the result list out of the page you saved. It only runs on the sites you added, and only to read. |
host permissions | Limited to the portal domains you add yourself. The extension does not request access to all sites. |
Pricing
Pricing is confirmed when the listing goes live.
