Is There a Website That Tracks New Florida Business Filings Daily?

Where Does the Data Come From?

The Florida Division of Corporations (commonly known as Sunbiz) publishes a data file every day on their public FTP server. Each file contains fixed-width records of all new business entities filed that day — including the entity name, filing type, the people on the filing, registered agent, and addresses. Alongside corporations and LLCs, the state publishes fictitious-name (DBA) and partnership registrations, and Sunbiz Daily carries all three.

Sunbiz Daily automatically downloads these files, parses the records, geocodes addresses for map display, and assigns each business an industry category by matching keyword rules against its name. This entire pipeline runs every day without manual intervention, adding the new filings to a mirror of the complete registry.

What Can You Do With Daily Filing Data?

Daily access to new business registrations is valuable for a range of uses. Entrepreneurs can research the competitive landscape before launching. Researchers can track business formation by industry, city, and entity type. Journalists and analysts can monitor economic activity across Florida as it is published.

One caveat worth knowing before you draw conclusions from a recent window: a filing reaches the published data roughly six days after the date Florida filed it, and stragglers keep arriving for a week or two afterwards. The most recent few days of any window are therefore incomplete and revise upward — run the same query a week later and yesterday's count will have grown. Compare like-for-like periods that have had time to settle.

• AI-Powered Search: Search using natural language like "restaurants in Miami" or "plumbers near 33101." The AI extracts industry, city, and zip code filters from your query.
• Interactive Map: Visualize where new businesses are registering across Florida on an interactive map with marker clustering. Filter by time period.
• Filings Table: Browse, sort, and filter all business filings by date, city, industry, and entity type.
• Registration Statistics: View daily averages, monthly totals, top cities, and industry breakdowns derived from actual filing data.
• Data Exports: Export filing data with standardized addresses to CSV, Excel, or JSON for analysis and record-keeping — free with an account.

How Is Sunbiz Daily Different from Sunbiz.org?

The official Sunbiz.org website is the Florida Division of Corporations' own portal. It allows looking up existing businesses by exact name or document number, but it does not offer daily filing feeds, industry filtering, geographic search, or bulk data access.

Sunbiz Daily complements Sunbiz.org by processing the same underlying public data and adding features it lacks: natural language search, industry categories, interactive maps, and statistical analysis. The raw data is public record under Florida law; Sunbiz Daily makes it accessible and useful.

How Often Is Data Updated?

Data is updated every day. The Florida Division of Corporations publishes a file of new filing data to their FTP server every calendar day, weekends included, and Sunbiz Daily processes it automatically. Weekend files carry far fewer filings than weekday ones, and files published on public holidays are usually empty. You can see how current the data is on the statistics page.
