Automation for Urban Planning

    Planning work is document-heavy, consultative, and deadline-bound. Automation shortens review cycles without removing the judgment that planning depends on.

    Where to start

    What we would automate first

    Not everything should be automated. These are the processes in urban planning where the return is clearest and the risk is lowest, and the ones we would plan first.

    01

    Application intake and completeness review

    Checking submissions for completeness is mechanical and is where most applications lose their first two weeks.

    02

    Public consultation processing

    Consultation responses arrive in volume and in free text. Automated categorization makes them usable within the timeline rather than after it.

    03

    Interdepartmental review routing

    Reviews that wait in queues nobody can see are a coordination failure, and coordination is what automation is best at.

    Is this you?

    Three signs there is work worth doing

    If you recognize your own operation here, a consult will be worth your money. If none of it lands, we will tell you that too.

    • 01Applications wait weeks before completeness review
    • 02Consultation responses are read but never aggregated
    • 03Nobody can say which department a review is sitting with

    Put us on one urban planning process

    A paid working session on the single process costing you the most. You leave with an implementation plan: what to automate, in what order, and what it costs to build. Your developers build it, or a partner does.
