Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Dylan, solo founder of LicensePro. It's a free research site that answers the question "what licenses and permits do I need to open a [business type] in [city]?" for 230 US cities and 48 license types. Every page is real content: actual fee ranges, actual agency names, links to the official application, notes on the local terminology (San Jose calls it a Business Tax Certificate, Orlando calls it a Business Tax Receipt, both mean roughly the same thing). A few things that make it different from what's out there: No account, no paywall, no email-gate. You land, you get the answer. Every page is verified against the state or city .gov source no scraped or LLM-hallucinated data. If a fee changes or an agency URL moves, the entry gets updated with a fresh verified date. A recent state-by-state analysis we published found that 9 of the 10 largest US states don't even issue a "state business license", a fact that most search results still get wrong. The information is structured to answer real search intent, not to sell you a service. If Delaware or Texas doesn't have a state-level business license (they don't), the page for that says so in the first paragraph and points you at what you actually need. There's a separate SaaS side at app.licensepro.io for renewal reminders and a document vault, but the free research site is what I'd want people to find and share. Would love feedback especially on: Missing cities or license types you'd want covered State-specific quirks I've gotten wrong (there are always more) Anything confusing about the current page flow Happy to answer anything. Thanks for the look! Dylan

Does the data get refreshed automatically when a city changes its filing requirements, or is each guide manually rechecked on a set schedule?

Finally, something that cuts through the red tape headache. Punched in my zip code and got a clear breakdown of exactly what filings I need, no upsells or sign-up walls. Genuinely useful for anyone testing a small business idea.
