Matched properties are verified against your STR registration records.

4

The Informal Economy
Has Real Costs

Every business operating without a license is using your infrastructure, competing unfairly with compliant businesses, and not contributing to your tax base. Civona finds them using public signal data.

  • Multi-source detection: Google, Yelp, state filings, utility data
  • Automated comparison against active business license records
  • Estimated annual fee revenue per detected gap
  • Tiered outreach workflow: notice, reminder, escalation
  • Monthly compliance dashboard for finance staff
