Building permits shouldn't be the bottleneck that slows great projects down. But for architects, builders, and developers, the reality is all too familiar: incomplete submittals, unclear requirements, multiple rounds of corrections, and months of costly delays.
Today, we're excited to announce the launch of the permittable.ai platform, built to help you submit complete, compliant, and approval-ready permit applications the first time.
permittable combines AI-powered analysis with real-world permitting expertise to remove friction from one of the most painful parts of development. Our early-adopter release includes three core reports designed to mirror and improve the way permits are actually reviewed.
Who permittable.ai Is For
permittable.ai is built for professionals who deal with permitting complexity every day:
- Architects who want to reduce corrections, resubmittals, and uncertainty late in design
- Builders and developers who need predictable approvals to keep projects on schedule and capital moving
- Permit consultants and project managers responsible for coordinating clean, reviewer-ready submittals
- City and municipal permit reviewers who want clearer, more complete applications and fewer back-and-forth review cycles
If permitting delays cost you time, money, or momentum, permittable is designed for you.
Three Reports, One Goal: First-Time Approvals
1. Intake Completeness Report
Know before you submit.
The Intake Completeness Report reviews your permit package to ensure all required documents, forms, and core elements are present before submission.
What it helps you avoid:
- Missing or mismatched documents
- Incomplete plan sets
- Administrative rejection at intake
This report answers the first question every municipality or Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) asks for a given project:
"Is this application complete enough to review for our specific requirements?"
2. Permit Review Report
See what reviewers see.
The Permit Review Report analyzes your submittal against applicable building codes, zoning rules, and common reviewer feedback patterns in the applicable jurisdiction. It highlights likely issues, inconsistencies, and gaps that typically trigger correction notices.
What it helps you reduce:
- Back-and-forth review cycles
- Unexpected correction letters
- Delays caused by preventable errors
Think of this as a thorough pre-review, before your project ever reaches a city reviewer's desk.
3. Permit Optimization Report
Go beyond compliance. Optimize for approval.
Compliance is necessary, but over-documentation can slow approvals just as much as missing information. The Permit Optimization Report identifies excess or unnecessary materials in an intake package, areas where reviewers frequently issue correction comments, and information that is not required to obtain permit approval in the applicable jurisdiction.
What it helps you improve:
- Clarity of documentation
- Alignment with reviewer expectations
- Approval speed and predictability
This is where permittable moves from "meets code" to "reviewer-ready."
Built for Real-World Permitting
permittable.ai is designed for how permitting actually works, not how it's described in theory. Our platform helps teams:
- Reduce resubmittals
- Shorten approval timelines
- Avoid thousands of dollars per month in delay costs
- Submit with confidence
Early adopters receive hands-on support, faster turnaround, and the opportunity to shape what comes next as we expand toward deeper automation and certification.
