OSHA Violation Lead Tools Compared
Every OSHA lead tool starts from the same public Department of Labor records. They differ in how you get the leads, what area they cover, what they add, and what they cost. Here are the real options in October 2026, free and paid, and who each one fits.
We searched Google for OSHA violation leads, OSHA citation alerts, and OSHA inspection lead services, then read each product's own website. Prices and features below come from those pages as of October 22, 2026. Check them again before you buy.
OSHAlert is our product, so read our part with that in mind. We list the other tools as they describe themselves.
OSHA's own search lets you look up inspections and citations by company name, state, date range, and NAICS code. It is free and needs no account.
It works well when you already know the company. It does not send alerts, and it has no phone numbers or contact details, so finding new leads means running the same searches again each week.
The Department of Labor open data portal (dataportal.dol.gov) offers OSHA inspection, violation, and accident tables through an API. A key is free once you register.
This is the most flexible option if you or someone on your team can write code. You join the tables, filter by area and industry, and find contact details yourself.
OSHA Leads sends a weekday email by 6 a.m. with newly published federal OSHA inspections in your county. Each lead has the employer's main phone number, website, address, past OSHA history, a suggested phone opener, and a link to the osha.gov record. A second alert follows when citations and proposed penalties are published.
Its main idea is territory limits: it sells each county to no more than two consulting firms. The County plan is $79 a month for one county. The Metro plan is $149 a month for up to three counties. Both start with a 7-day free trial and no card. The site says State Plan states such as California and Michigan are switched on after a check.
Good fit: an independent consultant who works one county or one metro and wants few competitors calling the same leads.
InspectionSignal is built for OSHA defense attorneys. It sends a weekday morning email of new OSHA inspections in your metro, with each one scored from 0 to 100 by urgency. Accidents and complaints rank first, and each signal links to the OSHA record. Its site says there are no dashboards to log into.
Core is $349 a month for one metro. Multi-Territory is $549 a month for up to four metros, with state-level coverage available. Both come with a 14-day free trial and no card.
Good fit: a law firm that wants a short ranked brief each morning and does not need contact details or a search tool.
The Apify Store has community-built scripts that pull OSHA inspection and citation data from the Department of Labor API. You run them yourself, pay per use, and usually need your own free DOL API key.
They suit technical users who want raw data in a spreadsheet or database. They are maintained by individual developers, so check that a script is still active before you rely on it.
OSHAlert checks the public enforcement data every night. On the days you choose, it emails you new open inspections, newly posted penalties, and penalty changes in your states. You can filter by industry, penalty size, and violation type.
Each lead has the company's OSHA history, and a phone number, website, and address from Google Places when we can find them. The dashboard lets you search, save leads, get a suggested call opener and email draft, and export to CSV.
Starter is $49 a month for one state and one alert day a week. Professional is $149 a month for up to 5 states and up to 7 alert days. Enterprise is $399 a month for all 50 states and DC. Every plan has a 7-day free trial with no card. We do not limit how many firms can subscribe in one area.
Good fit: consultants, trainers, and insurance brokers who cover a whole state or several states and want to search and filter, not just read an email.
If you only check a few known companies, the free osha.gov search is enough. If you code, the DOL API is free and fully flexible.
If you work one county and care most about fewer competitors, look at OSHA Leads. If you are a defense attorney who wants a scored morning brief, look at InspectionSignal. If you cover a state or more, or want a dashboard, filters, and contact data in one place, try OSHAlert.
Every paid option here has a free trial without a card, so you can run two side by side for a week and compare the leads you get in your own area.
Get 5 fresh OSHA leads free every Monday
Pick your state and get five companies with new OSHA inspections each week, with the city, what changed, and why to call now.
