The problem

Why most special-tax data still lives in a phone call

California requires the data to exist and be public. Nobody required it to be online. That gap is your inbox, your voicemail, and 5–15 hours of staff time every week.

01

The data exists — just not online.

Notice of Special Tax exhibits, CFD rate-and-method documents, 1915 Act assessment diagrams. They’re recorded, public, and statutorily required. But they live on paper, in one clerk’s filing cabinet, or in a PDF buried on a county subsite no one can find.

02

Title companies have to call you.

When an escrow opens, the title company needs to know if the parcel sits in any special-tax district. The current process is a phone call to your office, a fax, an email, a 24-hour turnaround. Multiply by every escrow. Multiply by every Friday.

03

You upload once. We do the rest.

Drag-drop the PDF. We extract the structured fields — district name, annual amount, bond payoff year, APN range — using AI. You review and approve. Your data publishes to a public lookup widget on your own .gov, and to a paid API for NHD providers — at $0 cost to you.

A real example

One mid-sized city. 24 CFDs. ~40 disclosure calls a month.

The district
City of Folsom

Administers ~24 active Community Facilities Districts (Folsom Ranch, Russell Ranch, Mangini Ranch, Folsom Plan Area). Each CFD has its own rate-and-method document, sponsoring resolution, and bond schedule.

The volume
~40 calls/month

Roughly 40 inbound disclosure calls per month from title companies, escrow officers, lenders, and residents — each asking the same questions about the same handful of parcels in the same CFDs.

The fix
One upload. Done.

Upload each CFD's rate-and-method PDF once. The next 40 callers, and the 40 after that, get the answer from a public page. Clerk time recovered: 5–15 hours per week, every week.

Figures based on publicly available CFD listings and conversations with Northern California city clerks. Your district's numbers will look similar.
