The Problem
Code consultants charge $5,000–$10,000 per review. For every project. Every revision.
3–5 business days minimum. That is 3–5 days of project delays, missed deadlines, and holding costs.
Different consultants flag different issues. No consistency. No transparency. No audit trail.
The Old Way
Every architect knows the feeling. Weeks perfecting the design. The drawings are done. Then you submit to a code consultant — and wait. And when the comments finally come back, there are dozens of items flagged. Some real, some not. Now you're back at the drawing board, your client is calling, and the project is delayed before it ever broke ground.
$8,500 later. 5 days lost. Project delayed.
The Better Way
PermitPrep.AI eliminates that cycle entirely. Upload your drawings and get a professional compliance report before lunch — with the specific sheet, code section, and fix for every item.
20 minutes. $149/month. No surprises.
