/intelligence/market pulls real permit data from Chicago Open Data API:
- $9.6B in active construction permits
- O'Hare expansion ($730M), new casino ($580M), transit station ($445M)
- Maps permit types to staffing roles (electrical→Electrician, masonry→Loader)
- Cross-references with our IL worker bench to show coverage gaps
- Electrician gap: only 1,036 reliable vs 63K estimated demand
Datalake page now shows three intelligence layers:
1. Contract simulation with scenario-driven matching
2. Market Intelligence with live permit data + bench analysis
3. System Learning with fill history and detected patterns
The staffing company sees demand forming before the phone rings.
