LANDMARQ
LANDMARQ provides permission intelligence for infrastructure developers, mapping the political and community record of a site before capital is committed. The platform scores opposition risk by neighborhood, models approval timelines across four permitting gates, and monitors changing local conditions. It currently operates in San Diego as a pilot market with national rollout planned.

Problem
Infrastructure developers routinely commit significant capital to site origination, engineering, and permitting before discovering that local community opposition will block the project. By the time opposition surfaces at town hall meetings or zoning hearings, developers have typically sunk $200K+ in legal and engineering costs, with no data to predict the political and community risk that will kill the deal.
Solution
LANDMARQ provides permission intelligence that maps the build-out, measures local impact, and monitors political and community signals to price the resulting friction before capital is committed. The platform scores opposition risk by neighborhood with confidence intervals, models expected value against friction costs and combined pass odds, and maps the four approval gates that determine whether a 90-day filing becomes a 764-day fight. Developers can identify hostile counties at the origination stage, adjust deal economics based on realistic approval timelines, and avoid sinking deposits into sites that will never clear zoning. The platform assembles planning history, policy context, community record, and political landscape into one connected view, then keeps monitoring for new applications, policy revisions, and shifts in local conditions. The platform's verified opposition model fills the only unpriced variable in the infrastructure development stack, preventing the value destruction cascade that compounds from origination through construction.
Target Audience
Primary customers are infrastructure developers, particularly those in data center, renewable energy, and utility-scale construction, who need to assess community opposition risk during site origination and feasibility analysis.
