Free plan

What’s included

• Compliance scan

  Assess governing documents against statutory requirements and best-practice governance rules, and get a structured scorecard back.

• Association lookup

  Search and list association records by name, state, county, and type. Free keys can fetch a single record by id, but bulk list and search endpoints need a paid plan.

• Risk and flood data

  Layer FEMA flood zone, reserve-study health, and geographic risk signals onto association records for underwriting and due-diligence work.

• Commercial-use license

  The right to use the data inside your own product, workflow, or service. The free tier is for personal use and evaluation only.

• No-scrape guarantee

  Licensed programmatic access with reliable, structured responses, so you never have to crawl the site yourself.

• Bulk operations

  Stream full datasets as CSV or JSON from the export endpoint and the ce CLI. Row caps grow with your plan.

• SLA

  An uptime and support commitment for production workloads.
