Ready to file

For municipalitiesPermit review & inspections

Complete permits reach your desk.

Most permit delays start with an incomplete submission. Built4UIQ checks each packet against the IRC and your local ordinances before it is filed, so your reviewers open a complete submission with the applicable code sections already identified.

Built for permit clerks, plan reviewers and field inspectors. Access is view-only and tokenized, so there is nothing to install, and every decision stays with your staff.

  • Pre-Screened Submissions: Applicable code sections identified
  • Inspections: Tied to project milestones
  • Reviewer Control: Every decision stays with your staff
  • No Cost to Your City: Free tokenized access during the trial period
How a permit reaches your desk4 of 4 pre-screened
  1. Submitted

    The owner or pro files a lot-specific packet through Built4UIQ, built from their plans and site.

  2. Pre-screened

    The packet is checked against the IRC and your local ordinances. Applicable code sections are identified and gaps flagged before it is filed.

  3. Your reviewYour staff

    Your staff open one complete submission, then approve, comment or send it back. Built4UIQ never approves a permit.

  4. Inspected

    Inspections are scheduled against project milestones, and each result is recorded on the project for everyone to see.

Flags to review6

In every packet

  • Lot-specific code checklist
  • Stamped engineering sheets

Pay pros when the work is proven.

With a general contractor, markup is opaque and trades wait 60–90 days. With Built4UIQ, each milestone is checked against code and inspection before money moves.

Illustrative. Paying each trade directly from escrow requires the project's construction lender to participate through Built4UIQ; otherwise draws follow your lender's standard process.
