PermitPilot

PermitPilot is a web + mobile AI-assisted permit and inspection prep app for small contractors and serious DIY remodelers. You enter your project type, address, scope, and rough drawings/photos; the app generates a jurisdiction-specific permit checklist, likely plan-review comments, and an inspection-ready task list (with what inspectors typically fail). It also organizes required documents, tracks revisions, and produces a clean “permit packet” PDF set with cover sheet, scope narrative, and material specs. The reality: permitting is a time sink and varies wildly by city/county, and most small teams lose money on rework and resubmits. This app doesn’t replace an architect/engineer; it reduces avoidable back-and-forth and helps users show up prepared. Monetization is straightforward: per-project fee or monthly subscription for contractors, plus upsells for expedited packet reviews and template libraries.
