Our Journey

Streamlining Pre-Construction and Permitting

Born from pain. Built for speed.

PermitFlow was founded in 2021 by a team who experienced the delays, complexity, and inefficiencies of construction permitting firsthand. Working closely with contractors, developers, and local AHJs, our team saw how fragmented systems and manual workflows added overhead and slowed down projects before they even began. These inefficiencies made pre-construction more expensive and unpredictable, becoming a major bottleneck to housing, infrastructure, commercial development, and home services. PermitFlow was built to streamline the entire pre-construction process, starting with fast, effortless, and predictable permitting.

AI Agents for the built world.

PermitFlow is the first AI platform built to bring automation at scale to the construction industry. Our AI agents handle the entire permitting lifecycle, from AHJ research to application preparation, submission, and real-time tracking, replacing slow, manual workflows with intelligent automation. We’re removing the friction that slows down the built world to make construction faster and more affordable everyone.

Our Values

Our Core Values Shape How We Work and What We Build.

[01]

Customers First

We exist to give our customers a faster, easier, and more predictable permitting experience. Everything we do, from how we build to how we support, starts with their needs. We stay curious about their goals, empathetic to their challenges, and take personal responsibility for their success.

[02]

Team Player

We achieve more when we work together. Our team brings different backgrounds, strengths, and goals, and we value that diversity. We support each other beyond job titles, collaborate, and offer constructive feedback to help each other grow. When one of us succeeds, we all do.

[03]

Ownership

We take full responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks. Ownership means caring about results, stepping up when something needs doing, and thinking beyond your role to what’s best for the team and customer. We use judgment, communicate clearly, ask for help when needed, and follow through.

[04]

Urgency

Speed is our advantage. We work hard, move fast, and stay focused on what matters most. We act quickly, learn as we go, and push for progress every day. We challenge ourselves and each other to raise the bar on pace, execution, and ambition.

[05]

Thrive on Change

Change is constant in our business, and our ability to adapt quickly is a competitive advantage. We see change as an opportunity, not a disruption. We stay confident through uncertainty, respond with creativity and focus, and keep momentum moving forward.

Careers

Build With a Mission-Driven, Passionate, and World-Class Team.

We’re solving a critical, overlooked problem. If you’re drawn to messy real-world challenges, fast feedback loops, and smart systems, you’ll fit right in. We’re building serious tech with great people, and there’s plenty of room to take ownership, move fast, and shape what comes next.
