Problem
Municipal zoning and building‑permit applications require extensive manual review of project plans against complex local codes. The process is fragmented across jurisdictions, leading to long approval cycles, frequent resubmissions, and high administrative costs for construction firms.
Solution
Rescope provides an AI‑powered SaaS platform that automates zoning feasibility and code‑compliance checks. Its Rezone product delivers instant zoning reports—including setbacks, FAR, height limits, and use restrictions—for any address in seconds across more than 3,000 jurisdictions. The Recode product validates architectural and engineering drawings against local building codes, flags violations in real time, and generates compliance reports that can be submitted directly to permitting authorities. A unified dashboard lets users track permit status, inspection dates, and expiration alerts across multiple sites, while AI‑estimated approval timelines help teams plan more accurately. The platform integrates via RESTful APIs and GIS connectors, enabling seamless data exchange with municipal systems and internal project tools.
