What we hold, and what we do not

A record is only as good as its inventory. This page is the inventory.

This page is the gap map. It exists because the useful thing about a reference work is not what it claims to cover but what it admits it does not. 6,241 records across 14 datasets and 54 jurisdictions. Exactly 1,856 of them sit in a dataset that clears the publication gate today - the 140 statute citations and the 193 monitored-source records - and 4,385 do not.

Known gaps, stated

Restricted entity-name words exist for one jurisdiction

Not published

The source table was never populated beyond Nevada. Deriving the other 53 from statute is an open research item, not a scheduled build.

Filing-channel data exists for one jurisdiction

Not published

Florida only, 7 filing types. Every other jurisdiction's channel rules are unresearched.

County DBA fees cover 17 of the 53 county-regime jurisdictions

Not published

And within a covered state, coverage is partial: 70 of 259 county rows carry no published fee.

Franchise tax has no structured dataset

Not published

29 states are covered by unstructured research prose. Until it is converted to records it can support one analysis page and zero jurisdiction pages.

No fee record carries an official source URL

Not published

All 435 fee datums are provenanced to internal records. This is the largest single item of work between the current state and a publishable fee spine.

1 jurisdiction holds two datasets or fewer

Not published

Guam. Every count and every table on this site carries it as a gap rather than dropping it from the denominator. Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands sit a rung up: they hold DBA, agent-rule, closure and corpus records but no fees, no citations and no status vocabulary, so they appear on national tables entirely as gaps.

Why there are no stub pages

Where a jurisdiction and a dataset do not intersect, the production site returns a hard 404 and the cell appears here as a known gap with a reason. It does not generate a page that says "data coming soon". A near-empty page repeated 54 times is the exact pattern that gets a site classified as scaled content, and it is also useless to the reader. The reader is better served by one honest inventory than by 54 apologetic shells.
