Permit-deadline autopilot for builders

Never let a permit expire again.

PermitPilot is the agentic deadline agent for general contractors, builders and property developers. It watches every permit expiration, required inspection, renewal, certificate of occupancy and contractor license — then auto-drafts the reminder + inspection checklist at 60, 30 and 7 days, before a lapse triggers a stop-work order.

The cost of a missed date

A missed inspection lets your permit go void.

Permit dates hide in inboxes, the city portal and a whiteboard nobody updates. Then the date slips — and the stop-work notice goes up on the job-site fence.

Stop-work orders

Let a permit expire — or fail to schedule a required inspection in time — and the city can red-tag the job. Crews stand down, the schedule blows, and your client wants answers.

Re-permit fees & lost work

A void permit isn't a cheap extension. You re-apply, re-pay full fees, and prior inspections may have to be re-done — covered work re-opened to re-inspect what was already passing.

Delayed certificate of occupancy

Miss a final inspection or contractor-license window and the CofO slips. Closings move, tenants can't take possession, and the carrying costs land on you.

How it works

Set it once. The agent watches forever.

From signup to a drafted inspection notice in your inbox takes about three minutes.

1

Enter your permit

Add your permit number and jurisdiction — PermitPilot seeds the expiration clock, the required-inspection sequence, renewals, certificate of occupancy and contractor license with their due dates.

2

The agent monitors

PermitPilot checks every deadline daily and trips an alert at 60, 30 and 7 days out — and immediately on any lapse, failed inspection or pending re-inspection.

3

It drafts the action

At each threshold the agent writes a ready-to-send reminder + inspection checklist with the right authority, deadline and permit number, and dispatches it.

Capabilities

An agent, not just a calendar reminder.

Reminders tell you something's due. PermitPilot does the next step for you.

🛰️

Monitor everything

Permit expirations, required inspections (footing/foundation, framing, rough-in electrical/plumbing/mechanical, final), renewals/extensions, certificate of occupancy, contractor license and failed-item re-inspections — tracked per permit and per jurisdiction.

✍️

Auto-draft the inspection checklist

At 60/30/7 days the agent writes the deadline-action notice — authority, due date, permit number and the exact next inspection or filing step — ready to act on.

📤

Dispatch on schedule

Notices go out by email to your project manager, superintendent or office automatically, with a full audit trail of what was sent and when.

🤖

Open-data powered

Enter a permit number and PermitPilot pulls the city's public permit record — status, expiration and inspection dates — from Accela/Socrata portals, so setup takes minutes.

The dashboard

Your whole permit picture, at a glance.

Green is healthy, amber is due soon, red is lapsed — with the drafted inspection checklist sitting right underneath.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is PermitPilot legal or building-code advice?

No. PermitPilot tracks deadlines and drafts checklists. It is not legal or building-code advice. Always verify requirements and deadlines with your city building department. See our disclaimer.

What can it track?

Permit expiration (the permit voids if no approved inspection occurs within the window — often ~180 days), required inspections (footing/foundation, framing, rough-in electrical/plumbing/mechanical, final), permit renewals/extensions, certificate of occupancy, contractor license and failed-item re-inspections — per permit and per jurisdiction.

How do the alerts work?

The agent checks every deadline daily and trips an alert at 60, 30 and 7 days before the due date, plus immediately on any lapse or failed inspection. At each threshold it drafts a deadline-action notice + inspection checklist and dispatches it to whoever you choose.

Does it schedule inspections for me?

PermitPilot prepares and dispatches the reminder, checklist and references. The actual inspection booking or renewal filing is completed with your city building department — the agent makes sure it never falls through the cracks.

How does the free trial work?

14 days, no credit card required. Enter a permit number and watch the agent work. Pick Builder, Pro or Enterprise when you're ready; cancel anytime before the trial ends and you're not charged.

Is my data secure and private?

Your permit data is scoped to your own workspace. We process data under GDPR, UK-GDPR and CCPA. Read our privacy policy for processors, retention and your rights.

Put your permit deadlines on autopilot.

Stop tracking inspections on a whiteboard. Let the agent watch, draft and dispatch — so a lapse never voids your permit or stops your job.
