Add health scores to your platform in a weekend

A clean JSON API for restaurant health inspection data — scores, violations, inspection history — built for POS, reservation, and management software.

Health inspection data is the one signal restaurants, diners, and operators all care about — but it lives buried in hundreds of government portals in incompatible formats. We've already done the collection, normalization, and refresh work. You get a single API endpoint that returns structured inspection data for any restaurant in our coverage area, ready to embed in your dashboard.

The problem today

Sound familiar?

Building your own data pipeline is months of engineering work

Scraping health department portals means dealing with inconsistent HTML, PDFs, JavaScript-rendered tables, rate limits, and portal changes that break your parser every few months. We've already solved this.

Your competitors are adding health scores — you're not

OpenTable, Yelp, and Google already surface inspection data. Restaurant operators increasingly expect their management tools to do the same. The window to differentiate with this feature is closing.

Health data is a retention feature, not just an acquisition one

Operators who can monitor their own inspection history and compare against nearby competitors stay on your platform longer. It's the kind of insight that becomes a daily habit.

Health inspection data as a drop-in API

Structured inspection data for restaurants across 25+ U.S. cities — scores, grades, violation counts, full violation descriptions, inspection dates — served via a clean REST API you can integrate in hours, not months.

✓REST API: look up any restaurant by name + city or by address
✓Returns: current score/grade, inspection date, total violations, violation categories
✓Full violation descriptions available (critical vs. non-critical flagged)
✓Inspection history endpoint: last 5 inspections per location
✓Coverage across 25+ cities including Boston, Chicago, NYC, LA, San Francisco, Seattle, San Diego, and more
✓Weekly refresh — data stays current as health departments publish new inspections
✓Bulk endpoint: query multiple restaurants in one call (great for chain management dashboards)
✓Webhook option: get notified when a restaurant in your system fails an inspection
✓JSON responses — no parsing PDFs or scraping HTML
✓Separate sandbox environment for development and QA
