A callable lead, not a scraped row.

Every unlocked record is a real establishment pulled from a government filing: business name, operator, address, license type and date, posted hours, and phone or website where they’re public. And where a public business-registration filing confirms it, you also get the owner or registered agent’s direct contact — so your outreach starts with the person who decides, not the host stand. Search the whole directory, filter to your territory, and unlock only the leads you want.

Point-of-sale and other technology live in a separate product, so a lead stays a clean, callable record.

Why the timing beats a database

The signal fires long before the sign goes up.

Anyone can buy a list of restaurants that already exist. DineTracer reads the earliest public filings a restaurant leaves, so you reach the operator while the decisions you sell into are still open.

app.dinetracer.com · Signals · Permits
DineTracer Signals - Permits: build-out permit opportunities across jurisdictions with state, jurisdiction, timing, and project-type filters over a masked results table.
Pre-Open is earlier than New Establishments. Pre-Open is pending, not-yet-open activity; New Establishments is around opening. A permit or a first inspection is a real signal, not a promise: it doesn’t guarantee a restaurant opens, and any opening window we show is an estimate, not a fixed date.
What you do with it

Turn the signal into a call list, then never miss the next one.

app.dinetracer.com · POS Opportunities
DineTracer POS Opportunities: restaurants with no supported POS detected, with State and City filters, a newly-licensed-within selector, and a new-prospects-only option.

Build a ranked prospect list from more than one signal

POS Opportunities is a cross-product workflow: it combines Restaurant Database identity, a Technology Intelligence check, and contactability into one ranked call list. It finds restaurants where no supported POS was detected on a recent check, then narrows by state and city and how recently they were licensed — and exports a de-duplicated CSV, best-first, with the reason each restaurant qualified. It reads the record; it never invents need or intent.

DineTracer Technology Intelligence: platform breakdown (Toast, Square, SpotOn, Clover) and online-ordering counts across the analyzed restaurant base.

Technology Intelligence

Research the POS, ordering, delivery, and reservation tech we detect, a separate product from your leads. “No POS detected” means no fingerprint found, not that a restaurant has none.

DineTracer Monitors: active monitors, matches delivered, and recent deliveries, above a table of saved monitors with what each watches, cadence, delivered count, last run, and status.

Monitors

Save a search once and let it run. Each cadence, a Monitor emails you a Delivery of only the new matches, with a CSV attached.

DineTracer Map: masked opportunity-density clusters across the United States with sales-timing and signal filters; the customer's own unlocked leads show as exact pins.

Map

Prospect by geography. Masked density shows where opportunity concentrates; your unlocked leads drop on as exact pins.

Built for the vendors who sell to new restaurants.

If you sell to restaurants, the account is won or lost in the weeks before opening. DineTracer puts you in front of the operator first.

Why you can trust it

Every lead traces back to a public record.

DineTracer is built on government filings and a business’s own public footprint, the same records a compliance team could pull themselves. Live in the amber states below; each number is how many restaurants filed to open there in the last 90 days.

No scraping. We don’t scrape LinkedIn or people-search sites. Every lead is built from government filings and a business’s own website — the same records a compliance team could pull themselves.

Honest by design. A restaurant’s own liquor filing or permit is public and factual. We’re not guessing intent; we’re reading the record the operator filed themselves.

Owner contact, sourced responsibly. When you unlock it, the owner or registered agent comes from a public business-registration filing, matched to their contact through a licensed, consented data provider — shown only when the match to the business is verified, flagged for Do-Not-Call / TCPA compliance, and always yours to verify before you reach out.
