Plumb Intelligence vs Mercator
Issued permits today, not early signals someday.
Mercator predicts projects months out. We hand you the permits that issued this week — and who pulled them.
Mercator is an AI business-development platform that surfaces construction projects early — from land transactions, rezonings, and registrations — for GCs, subs, and manufacturers building a pipeline, with a strong footprint in Texas. Plumb Intelligence is built on the opposite end of the timeline: actual issued Arizona permits, daily, matched to the ROC license that pulled them and fused with owners and sales, delivered as plays a rep works this morning.
Choose Mercator if
You want the earliest possible signal — land and rezoning activity months before a permit — and a BD pipeline workflow, especially in Texas.
Choose Plumb Intelligence if
You sell into Arizona and want permit-grounded, daily demand with license and property context — not speculative early signals — without a CRM rollout.
The difference, in one screen
