About OGLandman
Software built for the people who actually buy minerals
OGLandman is an oil & gas technology company. We make tools for independent landmen and small acquisition teams — the people working owners, running deals, and reading permits every day. Not generic SaaS bent into the job. Tools shaped around how mineral acquisition actually works.
What OGLandman is
OGLandman is an oil & gas technology company. We build acquisition software for the independent landmen and small teams who buy and lease mineral, royalty, and working interests.
We make three things. Scout is a CRM built specifically for oil & gas acquisition: one record per owner, a manual call-attempt log, a four-stage deal pipeline, and a PSA and offer-letter generator. The TRRC Permit Tracker is a free daily feed of every drilling permit filed with the Texas Railroad Commission. And the M&A Directory is a free, open database of more than 3,300 oil & gas corporate transactions and operator lineage.
Scout is a paid product, from $129/mo. The Permit Tracker and the M&A Directory are free — and they stay free. They exist because the work is better when the basic intelligence isn't behind a five-figure enterprise contract.
Why it exists
Look at what's available to a landman today and you find two extremes. On one side, generic CRMs — Salesforce, HubSpot, whatever the office already pays for — built for software demos and quarterly sales quotas, then bent sideways to track owners and tracts. On the other, enterprise land and mineral platforms like Enverus and Quorum, priced and built for majors and large operators, with implementation cycles to match.
Neither was made for the person running an acquisition desk with four to twenty people. So the work spills into spreadsheets: one tab for the call list, another for the pipeline, a third for who signed. Follow-ups slip. Two landmen call the same owner. The PSA gets re-typed by hand and the acreage comes out wrong.
OGLandman exists to close that gap. We start from the actual workflow — import the list, work every owner, move the deal, generate the document, close — and build the software to fit it, instead of asking the work to fit the software.
What it makes
Scout CRM is the system of record for outreach you run yourself. It holds one record per owner with county, NRA, and full call history; a four-stage pipeline (Under Negotiation, PSA Sent, Signed, Closed); a PSA and offer-letter generator that auto-fills owner, acreage, price, and legal description off the deal; and a per-deal document vault that detects when an uploaded PSA is fully executed. Managers can assign owners and call lists by role, so two people never work the same tract. Scout is honest about what it isn't: it doesn't dial, text, or auto-send outreach, and it isn't a title or runsheet tool. It's where the deal lives.
The TRRC Permit Tracker pulls every drilling permit filed with the Texas Railroad Commission, every morning. Filter by county, operator, or lease name, and export to CSV. It's free and email-gated — you see what was filed yesterday, not last month.
The M&A Directory is an open, free database of more than 3,300 oil & gas corporate transactions and operator lineage — useful for tracing who owns what after a string of acquisitions, with no signup wall.
Who it serves
We build for independent landmen and small mineral-acquisition teams — roughly four to twenty people — buying and leasing mineral, royalty, and working interests. Solo operators, small mineral companies, family offices with energy positions, and PE-backed acquisition desks all run the same core job: find owners, work them, and get to a signed PSA.
We treat these people as peers, not as users to be onboarded. The features exist because the work demands them, and the pricing — Solo $129/mo, Independent $279/mo, Team $199/seat with a three-seat minimum, Enterprise custom — is set so a one-person shop and a twenty-person desk can both run on the same record system without an enterprise contract.
If you're a major or a large operator that needs deep title, GIS, and division-of-interest management at enterprise scale, the heavyweight platforms are genuinely better suited to you. We're built for the desk that wants its acquisition pipeline to just work.
What it stands for
We make claims we can back up. No "revolutionary," no "industry-leading." Specific numbers over superlatives, and we say plainly what a product does and doesn't do — Scout's pages tell you it has no dialer and isn't a title tool, because that's the truth and you'd find out anyway.
Your owner data stays yours. You can export everything to CSV anytime your account is active. We don't sell, share, or mine your CRM data, and we don't use it for advertising. If you cancel, your data stays available to export for 7 days, then is permanently deleted. We follow industry-standard security practices, and we don't claim a named certification we don't hold — our security page lays out how we handle and protect your data in detail.
And we build around the real acquisition workflow. Every feature traces back to a step a landman actually takes between the first call and the close. That's the whole point of building software for one job instead of stretching a tool meant for everything.
The honest take
If your work is deep title — runsheets, chain-of-title, curative, division-of-interest accounting — or you're a major needing enterprise GIS and land administration at scale, OGLandman isn't the closest fit, and platforms like Enverus, Quorum, or Tracts are built for exactly that. Scout also won't dial, text, or send outreach for you; it's the record of the outreach you run yourself, not an autodialer. We're built for the independent landman and the four-to-twenty-person acquisition desk that wants the owner book, the pipeline, the documents, and the daily permits in one place — without an enterprise contract. If that's not the job in front of you, the bigger platforms may serve you better, and we'd rather tell you that up front.
Questions

OGLandman is an oil & gas technology company that builds oil & gas acquisition software.

What products does OGLandman make?
Three. Scout CRM — an acquisition CRM with an owner database, manual call-attempt log, four-stage deal pipeline, and a PSA and offer-letter generator, from $129/mo. The TRRC Permit Tracker — every Texas drilling permit, refreshed daily, free and email-gated. And the M&A Directory — an open, free database of 3,300+ oil & gas corporate transactions and operator lineage.
Who is OGLandman for?
Independent landmen and small mineral-acquisition teams of roughly four to twenty people — solo operators, small mineral companies, family offices, and PE-backed acquisition desks buying and leasing mineral, royalty, and working interests. It's built for peers in the business, not for enterprise majors or consumer use.
Is everything OGLandman makes paid?
No. Scout CRM is paid, from $129/mo with a 14-day trial. The TRRC Permit Tracker and the M&A Directory are both free. The Permit Tracker is email-gated; the M&A Directory is open with no signup.
What does OGLandman do with my data?
Your owner data is yours. You can export it to CSV anytime your account is active, and OGLandman does not sell, share, or mine your CRM data or use it for advertising. If you cancel, your data stays available to export for 7 days, then is permanently deleted. OGLandman follows industry-standard security practices but does not claim a named third-party certification it doesn't hold; the security page describes our data-handling practices in detail.
How is OGLandman different from Enverus, Quorum, or a generic CRM?
Enverus and Quorum are enterprise land, title, and data platforms built and priced for majors and large operators. A generic CRM like Salesforce or HubSpot is built for general sales and bent into the mineral job. OGLandman builds specifically for the independent and small-team acquisition workflow — owner book, pipeline, document generation, and daily permits — at independent-friendly pricing, without an enterprise contract.
