Scavio for State Licensure Database Prospecting

The Problem

An r/buyingabusiness post used Florida's FDACS for off-market acquisition leads. Most off-market searchers pay broker premiums or buy generic firmographic feeds that miss long-tail entities.

How Scavio Helps

• First-party gov data (free)
• Scavio fills owner + social + sale-signal
• Outscraper confirms active operating status
• Per-target-pulled <$0.03
• Off-market coverage brokers miss

Quick Start: Python Example

Here is a quick example searching Google for "FDACS travel agency category → Scavio dorks for owner + sale-signal → Outscraper Maps confirm active → tag by signal density → direct mail outreach":

import requests

API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
    headers={
        "x-api-key": API_KEY,
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
    },
    json={"query": query},
)

data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
    print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
    print(f"   {result['link']}\n")
