Stop decoding permits.
Let AI file them.
Enter your address. We detect your county and city, pull the exact forms you need, and pre-fill every field. Ready to submit in minutes.
Supported permit types
Every county. Every city. Different rules.
Every state has dozens of counties and hundreds of municipalities — each with their own permit forms, fee schedules, and submission requirements. A roof permit in Tampa looks nothing like one in Punta Gorda. And it's not always obvious whether you submit to the city or the county.
Each county has its own building department, forms, and fee structures. Charlotte County forms don't work in Lee County.
Cities within counties often have their own building departments. Punta Gorda handles its own permits — not Charlotte County. You have to know which one.
Permit expediters charge hundreds just to figure out the right forms and fill them in. Most of that work is repetitive and formulaic — perfect for AI.
Forms update. Requirements shift. You shouldn't have to keep up.
Municipalities regularly update their permit application forms, add new requirements, change fee schedules, and modify submission processes. A form you downloaded last month might already be outdated — leading to rejections, delays, and wasted time.
Without a unified system, you're left googling which department handles your permit, hoping you found the current version of the form, and guessing whether you submit online, in person, or by mail. That's before the actual work even starts.
Enter your property address — we determine whether you submit to the city or the county and pull the exact forms for your jurisdiction.
We source and maintain the latest versions of every form for every supported jurisdiction. No more outdated PDFs or rejected applications.
Every packet tells you exactly where to submit — address, portal link, office hours, and what to bring. No guessing.
Four steps. Minutes, not days.

What homeowners are saying
“I spent three days trying to figure out which forms I needed for a patio cover. Permits Automated had my packet ready in 10 minutes.”
“The city kept rejecting my pool permit because I was using the wrong form version. This service pulled the current forms automatically. Wish I found it sooner.”
“I didn't even know I needed a separate electrical permit for my HVAC replacement. The AI caught it and added it to my packet.”
What contractors are saying
“I pull permits across multiple counties every week. Each one has different forms, different submission portals, different requirements. This saves me hours per project.”
“The DBPR license lookup auto-fills my contractor info on every form. No more retyping the same license number across 15 different fields.”
“My admin used to spend half her day on permit paperwork. Now she generates packets in minutes and focuses on scheduling. Best ROI on any tool we use.”
Your permitted work, permanently on-chain.
When a permit closes, that verified work becomes invisible — buried in a county filing system. Buyers can't verify it. Appraisers miss it. Insurance companies don't know about it. We're changing that.
A Property Improvement Record (PIR) is a blockchain token minted on the Polygon network that contains a cryptographic hash of your closed permit documents. It proves that specific work was permitted, inspected, and approved — permanently and tamper-proof.
Polygon is an Ethereum Layer 2 network with sub-cent transaction fees, fast finality, and full EVM compatibility. It's the most widely used network for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization — making it ideal for property records that need to be permanent but affordable to mint.
When you sell your home, PIRs transfer to the new owner. Buyers get a verifiable history of every permitted improvement — roof, HVAC, pool, addition. No more digging through county records or trusting seller disclosures.
Buyers, insurers, appraisers, and lenders can verify any PIR by property address. The on-chain record links to the original permit documents, providing instant proof of permitted work without county records requests.

Common questions
What is Permits Automated?
Permits Automated is an AI-powered service that generates complete, ready-to-submit permit application packets for Florida construction projects. You describe your project, we identify the permits you need, pull the correct city-specific forms, and pre-fill every field.
Which areas do you currently support?
We currently support Charlotte County (City of Punta Gorda), with more Florida counties being added based on demand. Enter your zip code on the homepage to check if your area is supported — if not, request it and we'll prioritize it.
How does the AI know which forms I need?
We've manually sourced every permit form and requirement for each supported jurisdiction. When you enter your address, we detect whether you submit to the city or the county, then our AI (Claude) uses the correct forms and pre-fills them based on your project details.
Do I still need to submit the permit myself?
Yes. We generate the complete packet with all forms pre-filled and include exact instructions on where and how to submit (online portal, in-person office, or mail). You handle the actual submission to the building department.
Is this legal advice?
No. Permits Automated is a document preparation tool, not a licensed engineering or legal service. We help you fill out forms accurately, but you are responsible for the accuracy of the information and compliance with local codes.
What is a Property Improvement Record (PIR)?
A PIR is an optional blockchain token minted on the Polygon network after your permit closes. It contains a cryptographic hash of your permit documents, creating a permanent, tamper-proof record of verified work that transfers with the property at sale.
Do I need a crypto wallet for PIR?
No. We create a custodial wallet for you automatically. If you already have a Polygon-compatible wallet, you can connect it instead.
How much does it cost?
Homeowner permit packets are $79 each. Contractor packets are $59 each, with a bulk bundle of 10 for $499. PIR minting is a $29 add-on after your permit closes. No subscriptions required.
Can contractors save their license info?
Yes. Contractors can enter their Florida DBPR license number, which we validate and identify by type. You can save your full contractor profile (business name, qualifier, license, phone, address) and auto-fill it on every future permit with one click.
What if my city isn't supported yet?
Use the expansion request form on our homepage to submit your city and state. We prioritize new jurisdictions based on demand and will notify you by email when yours launches.
