Drives modernization of permitting processes
Trusted by government agencies and professionals
AI PreCheck uses AI to automate a significant portion of the permit assessment process, reducing processing times by up to 55% and allowing your team to manage more cases with minimal rework.
AI PreCheck boosts first submission quality to 90% by ensuring submissions are complete and by pre-checking building designs for code and zoning compliance, preventing frustrating delays caused by resubmissions.
Generate clear, accurate reports with simple pass/fail indicators, providing a consistent and fair experience for both city staff and applicants.
The software integrates into existing permit workflow solutions, providing a seamless process for applicants and improved customer satisfaction.
Digitizing and accelerating compliance checks in just three steps
Submitters simply drag-and-drop their design files onto the platform, initiating electronic applications by directly submitting planning and building applications. Compatible with PDF, CAD, or BIM formats, these designs can be reviewed in either 2D or 3D.
Archistar eCheck uses AI technology and human oversight to check designs against local codes and standards before formal submission to reduce delays and rework. It reads and assesses designs against your city’s local codes and regulations, instantly providing "pass" or "fail" results.
AI PreCheck produces a standardized compliance report, providing feedback on deficiencies by flagging missing or noncompliant elements and giving clear guidance for corrections. This enables the creation of higher-quality final submissions. Users can then resubmit updated plans to the platform. Once green lit in AI PreCheck, applicants can submit designs to municipalities for approval, which facilitates easier and faster assessments—and less back and forth with planners.

This integration allows Archistar AI PreCheck™ to directly communicate with the trusted International Codes ® (I-Codes®), allowing cities and jurisdictions to evaluate building and zoning compliance more efficiently. This provides integrated electronic access to I-Codes and local ordinances via direct in-platform access through the ICC Code Connect API for accurate, up-to-date compliance.
