The Platform Behind Your Program
Most pre-approved building programs run on a brochure website with a contact form. Ours is a working platform: GIS-based plan matching, managed document delivery, and program analytics. Residents can help themselves, and staff aren't fielding calls all day.
The Challenge
Without a real platform, staff become the help desk. They answer the same questions about which plans are allowed in which zones, over and over.
Brochure sites and PDF catalogs can't filter plans by zoning district or overlay. Residents don't know what's eligible at their address without calling the city.
That friction reduces program uptake. Fewer downloads, fewer permits, less housing.
How We Solve It
GIS-Based Plan Matching
Residents enter their address and instantly see which pre-approved plans are eligible based on their zoning district and any applicable overlays, like historic districts. GIS parcel and zoning layers are integrated directly into the platform.
Managed File Delivery
When someone downloads a plan, the platform assembles the package on the fly, combining jurisdiction-specific cover sheets and fillable worksheets with the latest plan files. Revised plans are always delivered in their current version.
Terms & IP Management
Construction documents carry real liability and intellectual property implications. The platform manages terms and conditions agreements for every download, covering derivative works, construction liability, and usage restrictions.
Program Analytics
Track plan popularity, download volume, and geographic reach. Cross-reference download data with permit records to identify where interest isn't converting to applications, so you can investigate barriers and improve the program.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. The platform handles everything up to the permit application: plan discovery, eligibility matching, document delivery, and terms agreements. When residents are ready to file, we link them directly to your city's permitting system.
