Permit Flow is redefining how America builds. Pre-construction remains one of the most broken and manual parts of the $1.6T construction industry, causing massive delays, wasted capital, and lost opportunity across the built world. Our AI workforce delivers unprecedented speed, accuracy, and visibility to pre‑construction — accelerating housing development, enabling clean‑energy projects, and driving economic growth in communities nationwide. To date, we’ve powered over $20B in real‑estate development, helping builders and contractors move faster, reduce risk, and scale with confidence.

Our HQ is in New York City with a hybrid schedule (3 in‑office days per week). We prefer NYC‑based candidates or those open to relocation.
