Custom lead generation software development in Detroit
Detroit sells in tiers, and every tier leaves a public paper trail that generic prospecting tools flatten into noise.
Detroit build sheet
Work is remote and the records are public, so where your office sits does not change the build — but which counties publish what absolutely does.
Detroit buying decisions sit inside supply chains. A machine shop sells to a supplier. That supplier sells to an assembler. A contractor sells to the plant that houses all of it. Most prospecting software misses that structure because it treats every company as a flat record with a phone number attached. We build lead-generation software that follows the structure instead: crawlers that pull entity filings, permit records and license rolls across Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties, then stitch them into one database you own outright.
The work is engineering, not list rental. We map the sources that actually carry your buyers, write the scrapers, handle rate limits and layout changes, then dedupe against the records already sitting in your CRM. Verification and enrichment run before anything reaches a rep, so nobody dials a disconnected number. Collection happens on whatever schedule you set. Output lands where your team already works, whether that is HubSpot, Salesforce, a Postgres table or a plain CSV drop. Builds start at $1,500.
Public sources in Michigan
- Michigan LARA corporate entity registrations
- Wayne, Oakland and Macomb county building permits
- Michigan professional and occupational licensing boards
- City of Detroit municipal open data portal
Coverage is uneven by county and agency. Some publish daily with contact details attached; some publish an address and nothing else. Which of these actually carry your market is the first thing we map — before any code is written or any invoice is sent.
Detroit industries we build for
Automotive supply chain
Suppliers and contract manufacturers buy quality software, staffing, logistics and plant services. They surface in entity registrations, industrial permit filings and public bid awards well before they answer a cold call. A scraper watching those feeds tells you which supplier is adding a line and which one is standing still.
Tooling, machining and stamping
Job shops are small, privately held and close to invisible in commercial databases. County business licenses and state entity filings carry them anyway. We build crawlers that catch new shop registrations and ownership changes, then enrich the record so your rep reaches an owner instead of a general voicemail box.
Mobility and embedded software
Firms working on connected vehicles, sensors and fleet software register, lease and hire like anyone else. Corporate filings, occupancy permits and public procurement postings mark that movement. Watching those sources hands you a pipeline of technical buyers before their funding news reaches the trade press.
Commercial construction
Permits are the cleanest buying signal in the metro. A filed permit names the owner, the contractor and the scope of work. We turn that into a rolling feed of active projects, matched against license board records so you know which firms hold current credentials.
Healthcare and senior care
Clinics, imaging centers and senior communities buy staffing, billing, compliance and facility services. State licensing boards publish facility and practitioner credentials. Paired with property and permit records for new sites, you get a list of locations opening, expanding or changing hands, timed to the procurement decision.
Three builds that fit this market
Concrete examples, not a menu. Every real build is scoped to one company's sources and sales motion.
Tier supplier and job-shop discovery crawler
Continuous sweep of Michigan entity filings and county license rolls for manufacturing and industrial classifications. New registrations, address changes and status flips get captured, geocoded and scored against your fit criteria. Duplicate shops filed under holding companies collapse into one parent record, so your reps see the operator, not three versions of the same name.
Permit-driven construction project feed with owner matching
We pull building and trade permits from the municipalities you sell into, parse contractor and owner fields, then match each project to assessor records for the property. The result is a daily project list with valuation context, current contractor and a route to the decision maker. Delivered by API, so your CRM opens an opportunity automatically.
Verification and CRM sync layer for existing lists
If you already hold data, we clean it before adding to it. Email and phone verification, entity status refresh against state filings, address normalization, and fuzzy dedupe tuned to your naming conventions. Then a sync layer writes changes into your CRM on a schedule with a full audit trail, so nothing overwrites a rep's notes.

Read more →Detroit questions
Is scraping Michigan business and permit records legal?
We build against public records that agencies publish for public use, including state entity filings, county permits and licensing board rolls. We respect published crawl rules, keep request rates polite, and never sign into a system or route around a paywall to collect data. Every source in your build is documented in writing so your team can point to where a record came from.
How long does a custom Detroit lead scraper take to build?
Most metro builds move through source mapping, a working prototype against one county, then expansion to the rest of the region. Simple registry crawlers finish quickly. Anything involving permit portals with unusual search behavior takes longer, because those systems need careful handling to stay stable. We scope in phases so you see real records early rather than waiting on a finished system.
Do I own the scraper and the data after the build?
Yes. You get the source code, the database schema, the collected records and the deployment instructions. Nothing is locked to our servers and there is no per-record fee to keep using what we built. If you want us to host and monitor the scheduled runs, that is a separate arrangement you can end at any point while keeping everything. Builds start at $1,500.
