We never project your revenue.
The report shows break-even conditions from your assumptions; it does not invent your future.
Know the location before you commit your money
Vantlens builds cited due-diligence reports on any US or Canadian commercial address — demographics, drive-time trade areas, competition, traffic, noise — every number traced to a public source. From $149, once. No subscription, no revenue fantasies.

Five steps, and every number traced to a public source.
Address, then the category you are considering, then the sources answering one at a time, then the trade area actually measured, then a fragment of the real document. Nothing shown before you run a check is your address — it is labelled sample throughout, and a source that does not answer is printed as a gap rather than filled in.
Every number cited.
How we source every numberPlatforms in this space run $12K–$50K a year. A documented small-city contract: $19,000/yr. This report: $149, once.
Deliberate refusals
What we won't tell you
We never score a neighbourhood by who lives there.
The same address produces the same report for every buyer. Demographic context stays descriptive.
We never publish a number we can't cite.
Every figure names its public source and vintage. Modeled estimates are labeled with their limits.

What you receive
Three pages of the actual document.
Not a feature list — the report itself, page by page, including the page where a source did not answer and the gap is printed instead of filled.

Developer API
Building software that needs to know if a location works?
The same cited site-report engine behind our $149 reports is available as a metered API — 25 free calls a month, then $3.00 down to $0.75 per call as you scale. No sales call required.
For your move
Neighbourhood reports are the second door.
The residential report is not open yet. It will apply the same source-and-vintage discipline to a home move, without scoring people or promising safety.
Questions
Before commissioning a report
Prices, sources, and the projection refusal stated plainly.
How much does a Vantlens location report cost?
A single commercial Location Report is $149; comparing three sites is $249; a city-wide Market Report is $499. Canadian visitors see CAD pricing: CA$199 single / CA$339 compare-3 / CA$679 market report. Residential Neighbourhood Reports are $39 USD or CA$49 CAD. All are one-time purchases — there is no required subscription.
Where does Vantlens get its data?
From free, commercially-licensed public sources: the US Census Bureau (ACS 2024 5-year), Statistics Canada (2021 Census at dissemination-area level), the FBI Crime Data Explorer, and Overture Maps. Every number in a report names its source and vintage. Modeled estimates are labeled and carry error-bar ranges.
Does Vantlens predict how much revenue a location will make?
No — deliberately. Vantlens never publishes revenue projections. Reports show break-even conditions computed from your own assumptions (rent, ticket size, margins), so you can see what would have to be true for the location to work.
