AI permitting intelligence for real estate

Own the moment every capital project begins.

Permit Genie turns any address into a permitting roadmap in minutes, replacing fragmented consultants, stale municipal data, and surprise delays with an agentic AI workflow built for entitlements.

The problem

$65B is destroyed each year by a permitting system built for another era.

Permits, legal review, consultants, failed feasibility work, and carry costs can consume 20-30% of a development budget before a single nail is driven. Most teams still discover constraints only after capital, time, and reputation are already exposed.

Permit Genie replaces the broken front door of development with a faster, clearer, data-rich starting point.
