Why this exists

Public-record lead feeds have multiplied: we list 8 FMCSA new-authority feeds, 12 building-permit feeds and 8 hail products, with entry prices from free to $800 a month. Vendor comparison pages exist, but each one is written by a vendor. This index is not, and it tracks shutdowns and price changes so you don't pay for a feed that has stopped shipping.
