American Trades Index Data

Looking things up is simple with our tools. Browse a market, watch a territory, export what you are looking at, and cut a week of manual register checks down to a few clicks.

The Index

Our quarterly read on the licensed trades workforce, published free and ungated, applying the same nightly data to the questions the industry press keeps asking.

8,694 companies you could sell to, last week out of 181,518 total changes

The Change Nobody Else Computes

A List Tells You Who Exists. Only We Tell You Who Moved.

A contractor list is the same list it was last month. We hold the whole licensed population and compare it against itself every night, which is the only way to see the company that just got licensed, added a trade, or lost the individual who legally qualifies it.

See What Moved

Who Reads It, And What They Ask It

Ten industries, one nightly file. Everyone here wants the same thing: who is licensed to do skilled work, where, at what level, and whether that number is moving.

Live From Last Night's Run

Every Change, Straight Off The Register

These are real changes from the most recent nightly run, not a demo. Five checks pass before any night publishes, so a failed download costs you a day of freshness instead of a wrong number in a board deck.
