Why This Tool Exists

The Problem

Municipal development review processes are slow and labor-intensive, with planning departments manually analyzing site plans, checking zoning compliance, and verifying building codes across multiple departments, taking weeks to complete reviews. Cities struggle with inconsistent review standards and developers face unpredictable approval timelines.

The Solution

AI agents analyze site plans against local zoning codes and building ordinances in parallel, identifying compliance issues in minutes rather than weeks. The platform converts AEC drawings into structured data, applies local codes automatically, and escalates judgment calls to human planners while handling objective compliance checks.
