• Build the Safe, Compliant Communities that Your Residents Deserve

    Modernize Plan Review with AI and GIS to Accelerate Community Development

THE CHALLENGE FOR BUILDING TEAMS
The Plan Review Bottleneck Holding Back Your Community
Building departments face mounting pressures: permit volumes are rising, complexity of code requirements, and applicants expect faster turnaround without sacrificing safety. Yet outdated review tools cause bottlenecks, fragmented workflows, and version chaos—fueling frustration for both applicants and staff. Teams are left in the dark on permit status while spending countless hours handling inquiries and managing tedious manual tasks.

Lack of Visibility Leads to Delays and Systemic Issues

  •  Sequential review and hidden queues slow down approvals.
  • No visibility into where plans are stuck, who’s handling them, or when they’ll move forward.
  • Lack of actionable data makes it impossible to balance workloads or answer performance questions.

Fragmented Workflows Increase Risk of Non-Compliance

  • Conflicting comments, version control errors, and corrections overlooked creates non-compliance risk.
  • Lack of digital audit trails means agencies face administration headaches if decisions are challenged

Poor Applicant Experience Leads to Frustration

  • Applicants lack digital support for submissions resulting in costly resubmittals.
  • Manual hand-offs and admin tasks distract reviewers from their core mission of safeguarding the public.
The Result? Plans pile up faster than your team can review them, code compliance suffers under administrative burden, and your expertise gets buried in paperwork instead of building a thriving community.
