What it does
The StateLicense API checks US contractor licences against public state records: status, licence holder, licence class, trade classifications and dates, in 19 states including California CSLB, Texas, Florida and New York City, for example to check a contractor during onboarding. GET /v1/verify looks up a licence number and POST /v1/search finds a business by name, both answering in JSON. Free without a key for 10 lookups per IP address a day, or with a free key for 25 requests a month; the Pro plan gives 1,000 requests for 49 dollars a month.
