The Problem
AI and automated bots are overwhelming public record systems.
- Systems slow down or crash
- Sensitive data can be exposed at scale
- Counties lose control of access
- Fraud risks increase
These systems were built for people—not machines running thousands of searches per minute.
Why It Matters
County record systems support critical functions:
- Real estate & title transactions
- Legal filings & compliance
- Lending & financial decisions
Without safeguards, public record data becomes a LIABILITY instead of an ASSET.
The Reality
Thousands of automated queries can hit a system instantly, extracting data faster than it can be managed or protected.
This is happening right now.
