Coverage & roadmap

Live ingestion begins with the three states that publish FDDs online (California, Minnesota, Wisconsin). Remaining registration states (WA, MD, VA, NY, IL, RI, ND, SD, HI, IN) are added as their portals are wired in.

Known limitations

  • This is a validation preview: signal events shown are representative examples pending live ingestion. Reported brand figures are publicly-sourced approximations.
  • FDDs update roughly annually; some changes are delayed, amended, or withdrawn.
  • Not every franchisor registers in these states; coverage is broad but not exhaustive.
  • Nothing here is investment, legal, or franchise-purchase advice. Verify the official record before acting.
