FAQ
How fresh is the data?
We pull each state's portal on a daily cron. Records typically reflect filings within 24-48 hours of state-side processing.
Is registered agent / officer name PII included?
No. Per Palavir policy and California/Texas/Oregon data broker regulations, registered agent and officer name columns are stripped before any export or marketplace listing. Entity-level data only.
Can I get a sample before buying?
Yes, request a sample CSV for any one state via the sample-request form below. Returned within one business day, no card required.
How do I receive the data?
Single-state CSV: secure download link via email after Stripe checkout. Bundle: same. Snowflake Marketplace: live share in your account upon subscription.
What's the difference between this and ZoomInfo / Apollo?
Those products enrich with contact-level data (titles, emails, phones). This product is the upstream source — fresh business entities directly from authoritative state Secretaries of State, refreshed daily, with no enrichment middleware. Lower price per record, higher freshness.
Compliance posture
Built from public Secretary of State filings, an open public record. Per Palavir policy and CA/TX/OR data broker regulations, registered agent and officer personal-name columns are stripped before export. Entity-level data only.
