ChangeSignal

Verified local buying-intent · San Francisco restaurants

Know which San Francisco restaurants are opening — before they open.

ChangeSignal cross-checks two independent public filings — a new business registration and a California ABC liquor license at the same address — to surface real venues opening in SF, months before they hit any directory. Every lead ships with the address, the filing dates, and links to both source records as evidence.

Each of these is a real San Francisco venue confirmed by two separate public filings that we resolved to one business — not a scraped listing.

Why corroboration beats a scraped list

Anyone can scrape a directory. The hard, defensible part is proving a venue is really opening — and reaching it first.

1

Two independent filings

A new venue first appears in the SF business registry — the earliest public sign — then gets its CA ABC on-sale liquor license right around opening day. Two separate government records, two separate dates.

2

Resolved to one venue

We match both filings to the same business by street address — even when the names differ or have typos — so you get one clean lead with both source records attached as evidence.

3

Reach them first

POS, payments, insurance, supply, payroll, equipment financing: a new restaurant is in-market the moment it opens. You're there before the directories are.
