Map. Watch. Brief.
You tell us where you are licensed and what you hold. We read what those states publish and weigh every change against that profile. On Monday you get one brief: only what touches you, with the deadline and the action spelled out.
Nothing here is a dashboard you have to visit. The product's job is to be quiet until it is not.
Map your footprint
In one line: you tell us your states, we watch the agencies that license them, and you get one brief a week plus an immediate note when something has a deadline attached.
Add the states you operate in and the licence classes you hold — infant and toddler, preschool, school-age, home-based. That is your watched universe, and everything downstream is measured against it.
- Per-jurisdiction licence profile. A centre in Ohio holding an infant licence is not watched like a school-age programme in Maryland. The profile is per centre, per class.
- Multi-state by design. The unit of pricing and of coverage is the jurisdiction, because that is the unit the rules are written in.
- Set up in minutes. States, centres, licence classes. No integration, no data migration, nothing to connect.
- An unknown licence class is refused, not guessed. If we cannot watch something, the profile says so at the moment you add it — rather than quietly guaranteeing you zero alerts forever.
We keep the watch
We read the registers your rules actually change in and weigh every change against your profile — then interpret it in plain English, so the question you answer is "does this touch us?" and not "what does this paragraph mean?"
- One federal watch is running today; no state watch has started. A state is lit when a customer brings it — that is what the per-jurisdiction price buys, and the panel opposite is the live position, not a projection.
- Your state does not start from nothing. Separately from anyone's coverage, the corpus already reads 52 jurisdictions' rules daily, longest-waiting first — 841 rule documents archived with their own evidence trail, plus 29 leading indicators watching rulemaking before it becomes law. Lighting a state moves that existing watch into your coverage, with a dated receipt and an SLA behind it. Both layers, stated apart →
- Relevance-scored per state. A change is scored against the jurisdictions and licence classes you actually hold, not against childcare in general.
- Weighed against your licence types. An infant-ratio change reaches a centre with an infant licence. It does not reach one without.
- Plain-English interpretation. What changed, and what it means for an operator — not a link to a PDF and good luck.
- A quiet watch is not the same as a clear week. If a source could not be read, that is named in the brief in words and the "no changes" reading is withheld for that watch.
It reaches you five ways, and the status page proves each one alive
You hear in time
Only what touches you, with the deadline and the action spelled out. It arrives as The Selah Brief on Monday morning — and on a week when nothing changed, it says so in one line and takes none of your time.
- Ranked by relevance and deadline. The thing that closes first sits at the top.
- What changed, and what to do. Each item carries the action and the window, not just a citation.
- Monday, and only Monday. One arrival a week is the whole promise. We would rather be the thing you are not bracing for.
- An empty week publishes nothing. A brief that says "nothing changed" is a real result, and we send it as one.
The categories a licensing change actually lands in
Every change is classified into one shared set of categories before it is scored, so an alert can be traced to the kind of obligation it touches — and so a week's worth of them can be counted.
A rule change is four timestamps, and only one of them measures us
Everyone in this category tells you something changed. That is the easy half. The hard half is the clock it started — when it becomes binding, how much room you have left, and whether anybody can prove when we knew.
- Latency is ours, and we publish it. The gap between a rule becoming knowable from a primary source and us catching it. It is the only one of the three that measures SELAHAI rather than an agency or you — which is exactly why it is the one we put in writing.
- Notice is the agency’s. Ninety days or nine, it is their choice and not our achievement. We never lead with it.
- Margin is yours. How much room was left when you closed. Below zero is a miss, and a miss is a fact about a calendar day in your own jurisdiction — not about the hour our server noticed.
What that looks like in the workspace
The last row is the one worth reading. It is excluded from every figure above it and says why on its face — it is not a miss, and a screen that hid it would be quietly flattering us.
The limits, stated on the page that sells it
- It is not legal advice. We tell you a rule changed and what it appears to require. Whether your operation complies is a judgement for you and your counsel.
- It does not watch what we have not started watching. Coverage begins the day a watch starts, and the coverage surface shows you the date. We do not backfill a claim to before we were looking.
- It does not replace your licensing specialist. It gives them a shorter, dated list to work from, and a record of what was already actioned.
- It is one arrival a week. Monday, and only Monday. If you need a live console that pages you at 2am, this is the wrong product and we would rather say so here.
Tell us your states. We will take it from there.
