New businesses formed on Labor Day. A holiday slows filings; it doesn’t stop them — and neither do we.

Every day in September

Each bar is one day of filings. Business days carry the volume; a weekend day runs about a fifth of a business day, and Labor Day about a third.

Sep 1Sep 8Sep 15Sep 22Sep 29
Business day — median 6,529, peak 9,442 (Sep 1) Weekend — median 1,367 Labor Day — 2,136

30 days, no missed days, 149,881 businesses loaded. Continuity is the whole game — a feed that skips a holiday quietly hands those owners to whoever called first.

By state

Every record is built from 18 external data sources — starting with the state filing itself — then refined and scored by 18 proprietary intelligence engines.

Your market, by business type

New operating businesses in September: per day and week across six states, then per week by state. Counts are floors — about 8 in 10 carry a type today. Online, every number opens that list, priced.

You only pay for businesses worth calling.

84%are worth calling

882,580 operating businesses on file today, out of 1,053,579 filings. Mail drops, formation-suite addresses, single-property LLCs and holding companies — 170,999 of them — are held back and never billed.

4 in 5filed by the owner

84% of September’s operating businesses were filed without a formation service or law firm — so the name on the filing is usually the owner’s.
