Pre-construction intelligence
Move faster on every
development decision.
Score jurisdictions, assess parcels, run full due diligence, model scenarios, and monitor your permit schedule — continuously updated by AI agents.
Data Centers
Smarter intelligence. Better outcomes.
Spend less time on research.
More time on the deals only you can close.
Development teams spend weeks chasing jurisdiction intelligence, running due diligence, and manually tracking permit schedules. PermitPortal automates all of it — so your team can focus on relationships, deal structure, and breaking ground.
Evaluate faster
Score any jurisdiction in seconds. Screen parcels on a map. Know the entitlement risk before you commission a survey or sign an LOI.
Decide with confidence
Full DD reports in hours, not weeks. Model every scenario — entity structure, power strategy, engagement approach — before you commit.
Execute on schedule
Track every permit, milestone, and governing body hearing. Deadline deviations surface automatically. Nothing slips without you knowing.
Built for large-scale development
How teams use PermitPortal
From first market screen to permit in hand.
200MW hyperscale — Loudoun County, VA
Screened 6 competing jurisdictions. Flagged community opposition risk in Prince William County. Recommended CUP path with third-party LLC structure to reduce media exposure.
450MW utility solar — site selection across 4 states
Maricopa County flagged high-risk (44/100) — active ballot initiative targeting utility-scale projects. Pivoted to Kern County alternative. DD delivered same day.
Regional distribution hub — permit schedule monitoring
Environmental review delayed 18 days. AI agents flagged upcoming Board of Supervisors vote with 3 opposing commissioners — triggered stakeholder engagement strategy.
Jurisdiction Intelligence
Score every AHJ before you commit to a site.
AI agents score every Authority Having Jurisdiction across 9 risk dimensions — political sentiment, regulatory complexity, social opposition, entitlement velocity, voting history, and more. Updated continuously as new data comes in. Compare jurisdictions side-by-side with quantified data, not gut feel.
Parcel Analysis
Screen, compare, and assess every parcel before you make an offer.
Map-based parcel screening lets you filter by acreage, zoning, ownership, and development constraints across any market. Run side-by-side parcel comparisons, best-use analysis, and full feasibility assessments — geometry, zoning classification, environmental overlays, and utility access — without leaving the platform.
Due Diligence
Comprehensive DD reports. Generated by AI agents. Delivered in hours.
AI research agents produce 11-section due diligence reports covering every dimension a development team needs before committing to a site — zoning, power infrastructure, environmental constraints, community sentiment, labor market, water, transportation, and regulatory landscape. What a consulting firm takes weeks to produce, PermitPortal delivers in hours. All findings are sourced and linked.
Scenario Modeling
Model every development decision before you make it.
Run what-if analyses across every dimension that affects entitlement outcomes — applicant entity, power strategy, energy type, community engagement approach, entitlement path, and disclosure timing. See how each combination changes your APO timeline, risk score, and blast radius. Compare scenarios side-by-side before committing to a strategy.
Permit Schedule
Know exactly where every permit stands — and what's blocking your schedule.
The Permit Schedule maps every approval, milestone, and dependency on the critical path to construction. Predecessor chains and gate tracking tell you what needs to happen and in what order. Schedule deviations surface automatically so nothing slips quietly past a deadline.
Permitting Workflow
Track every hearing, vote, and governing body decision.
Monitor cases, meetings, and votes across Planning Commissions, Boards of Supervisors, Zoning Appeals Boards, and every other governing body in your pipeline. AI agents flag upcoming hearings, surface opposition signals, and track decision patterns — so you're never caught off guard.
“What used to take our team weeks of consultant reports and site visits, PermitPortal delivers in hours. The jurisdiction scoring alone changed how we evaluate sites.”
