## How to read these records

### The record

Businesses operating in unincorporated Marin County hold a County business license. The County publishes the active ones with their type and issue date.

### Status

Active business license (unincorporated Marin County). The County file covers unincorporated areas; cities such as San Rafael license their own businesses.

### What is not here

Individuals, and any name without a company word (Inc, LLC, Corp, Co…). Owner and contact names, phone numbers
and mailing addresses, which this site never downloads.

**For owners and managers: does
your company have 30 to 200 employees?**

AI labs pay companies to license their internal workflows (SOPs,
documentation, support tickets), anonymized and under contract. You keep ownership and pay nothing.
