About Permitech / what we are today

A residential project connected to parcel research, permit applications, evidence, review steps, and approval

One connected permit workflow

The operating layer

Intelligence finds the path. Compliance moves the work.

AI speeds up research and organization. The operating value comes from permit data, zoning and GIS context, official evidence, workflow automation, and permit technician judgment working together.

01

Permit Intelligence

Determine what applies to this address and project before the team commits time, drawings, or a crew.

Address and parcel context
Jurisdiction resolution
Zoning and overlays
GIS and geographic signals
Permit-path research
Official source evidence

02

Compliance Operations

Turn requirements into documents, submissions, follow-up, corrections, inspections, and closeout.

Document collection
Packet preparation
Filing and submittal
Review and corrections
Inspections and closeout
Licenses and insurance

03

Human Review

Give uncertain and unsupported paths direct permit-technician review, source checks, and exception handling.

Unsupported-path research
Source and link checks
Quality review
Department communication
Stakeholder updates
Exception resolution

The building department still reviews and decides.

Permitech prepares, coordinates, submits, and responds. The authority to approve, deny, or condition a permit remains with the jurisdiction.

Clear responsibility

Who the system serves

Built around the applicant. Useful to everyone involved.

Contractors are the first customer because they pull permits repeatedly and feel the operational burden most often. The wider system benefits when every participant has better information and a clearer handoff.

Contractors

Move permit work off estimators, production teams, and owners so jobs do not wait on research or paperwork.

Homeowners

Understand what the property and project require, gather the right documents, and get guided help through review.

Building departments

Receive clearer submissions from applicants who arrive with better context and more complete project information.

Project professionals

Route surveyors, engineers, architects, and trades into the workflow when the permit path calls for them.

How we operate

AI where it accelerates. People where judgment matters.

Source-backed by default

Requirements should point back to official pages, forms, code, GIS, or department guidance so answers can be checked.

Automation with escalation

Supported paths move through structured workflows. Uncertain or unsupported cases route to permit data operations and human review.

Portal-agnostic execution

Permitech works across municipal portals, email, PDFs, and in-person processes while each AHJ keeps its existing system.

Applicant education built in

The system explains documents, decisions, dependencies, and next steps so the applicant can act without becoming a permit technician.

Gio / Founder / Permit operations and product

Built from firsthand operations

“Applicants kept getting one answer that opened ten more questions. I built the permit-desk workflow I wanted on every job.”

Permitech started with sheds and garages because that was the deepest, most repeatable operating knowledge available. The company now applies the same address-to-closeout method across broader residential permit paths and contractor operations.
