Land Records

What Land Records does

Land Records, legally Systems of Record LLC (Virginia, USA), is a US parcel and property data provider offering a nationwide dataset of 157,328,018 parcels across 3,230 counties with 99%+ US geographic coverage. The product surfaces parcel identifiers, validated addresses and geometries, ownership information, and approximately 90 attribute fields per parcel, refreshed quarterly. Distribution runs through three channels: per-county and per-state bulk file licenses ($50–$250 and $500–$1,500 respectively), a nationwide bulk license positioned at up to 80% below incumbent Regrid pricing, and a hosted OGC-compliant Web Service (WMS/WFS/WMTS) accessed via API or through QGIS integration. Pricing is publicly disclosed and targets GIS analysts, developers, and small-to-mid-market organizations building property risk, real estate, insurance, and natural hazard mapping applications.

The platform is built on Ray, Docker, Python, and PostgreSQL running on Google Cloud for storage and API serving, with Fastly providing CDN and application firewalling. The operational backbone is an AI-driven data harmonization pipeline that uses custom LLMs running on self-hosted NVIDIA Hopper and Blackwell GPUs to normalize schema, format, and naming differences across thousands of county sources, replacing the founder's earlier manual collection workflow. This self-hosted inference model converts what would otherwise be a high variable-cost LLM processing expense into a fixed-cost infrastructure expense, and is the structural basis for the company's aggressive price position.

The business is founder-led by TJ Webb and operates without institutional capital, distributing product through a product-led growth motion with a 14-day free trial of the Web Service, a $200/month Pro Plan subscription, and self-serve bulk purchases on the website. No enterprise sales motion, channel partners, resellers, or named anchor customers are disclosed in available materials; revenue is generated entirely through direct self-serve transactions.

Recent moves4 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• ReportAll: Direct competitor offering US parcel data with monthly updates and ~75 attribute fields. Listed on Land Records' own comparison page as a head-to-head alternative across county, state, and nationwide tiers.
• Regrid: The largest direct US nationwide parcel data provider. Sells county, state, and nationwide bulk parcel datasets and an API at the $90,000+/year price point that Land Records explicitly undercuts by up to 80%.

Broad incumbents

• Mapbox: Mapping platform providing tile services and location APIs. Overlaps with Land Records' managed WMS/WMTS vector and raster tile offering, and could expand into property/parcel layers for developers.
• CoreLogic: Established real estate and property data incumbent serving insurance, lending, and government. Overlaps with Land Records' parcel data offering but as part of a much broader enterprise data portfolio.
• LightBox: Commercial real estate data and workflow platform that provides parcel, property, and location intelligence to enterprises. Competes in the same GIS/real estate data category at a larger scale.
• Esri (ArcGIS): Dominant GIS platform whose ArcGIS products consume parcel data from providers like Land Records. Not a direct data competitor, but its marketplace and basemap layer offerings intersect with the same GIS analyst buyer.
• Black Knight: Mortgage and real estate technology incumbent with extensive US property and parcel data assets. Competes indirectly via enterprise data feeds used by lenders and government entities.
• ATTOM Data Solutions: Large-scale US property data incumbent offering parcel, ownership, AVM, and mortgage data. Competes with Land Records in the nationwide bulk data market and bundles parcel data with broader property intelligence products.
• HERE Technologies: Location data and mapping platform offering geospatial datasets and APIs to enterprise customers. Adjacent in the location data platform category where Land Records' API-first model competes.

Emerging players

• AcreTrader: Land marketplace and data platform for rural and acreage properties. Competes for a narrower segment of GIS/land-investor buyers and uses parcel data similar to Land Records' offering for its own market analysis tools.
