01 / THE TRIGGER
A project manager starts the day by checking multiple municipal portals to learn whether permits, inspections, fees, or revisions changed overnight.
The research hypothesis is that fragmented portals and manual checks create avoidable coordination work and increase the risk of crews acting on stale permit information.
02 / SAMPLE OUTPUT
A useful answer before a sales form.
This preview shows the shape of the output with synthetic inputs. Nothing here is personalized advice or production evidence.

03 / HOW A PILOT WORKS
Test a narrow output
Use synthetic or explicitly approved sample data in a scoped report.
Decide with evidence
Continue only if the workflow helps and a buyer makes a commercial commitment.
04 / FIT
Built for a narrow buyer.
Worth a conversation if you are…
✓ Trade subcontractors managing 5–25 active sites
✓ Owners, operations leads, and project managers checking municipal portals
✓ Teams willing to test one supported city or county first
Not the right fit for…
— Legal advice or guaranteed permit approval
— Nationwide portal coverage at launch
— Unreviewed lien documents or automated crew dispatch
05 / FOUNDING OFFER
A seven-day concierge monitoring test for one reviewed municipal portal and a small set of active permits, with a documented morning status report.
06 / WHAT IS TRUE TODAY
PermitSync is a demand-validation concept, not a live municipal integration or source of official status.
Portal access, terms, technical reliability, and allowed automation must be reviewed separately for every jurisdiction.
Alerts require recipient consent and human verification; any lien-waiver workflow requires jurisdiction-specific legal review before use.
07 / STRAIGHT ANSWERS
Questions this test must answer.
Which cities and counties are supported?+
None are represented as automated today. This experiment identifies the first jurisdictions worth reviewing through qualified coverage requests.
Can an alert authorize a crew to begin work?+
No. The official municipal record and the contractor’s own approval process remain authoritative.
Does this generate legally valid lien waivers?+
Not in this test. Lien documents are outside the initial monitoring scope and require jurisdiction-specific legal review.
