Entitlement intelligence · from first look to final approval

AI-backed local data for every project.

Navius knows your local government's codes, decisions, agendas, permits and procedures, and tells you what is allowed on your site, which boards you will face, what they have asked of similar projects, and how long it took them.

Why it matters

Entitlement is where projects lose time and money.

A condition nobody saw coming. A third round of review. A board you did not know you would face. Every month in review is a month of carrying costs, and the answers that would have avoided it were already on the record, buried in years of agendas, staff reports, review comments and decisions spread across a dozen boards and portals.

What you get

Answers you can act on, with the evidence behind them.

What is allowed on your site

Zoning, overlays and the uses the code permits, read from the ordinance itself and tied to your parcel.

IllustrativeMultifamily is a conditional use in this district, subject to review by the planning commission. Zoning ordinance, §54-202, Table 1

Your path through the boards

Which boards will review your project, in what order, and how long each step has actually taken for projects like it.

IllustrativeComparable site plans needed three rounds of staff review, a median of four and a half months from filing to sign-off. Review records, 2019–2025

What they asked of projects like yours

The conditions, revisions and objections similar projects faced, so you can answer them before anyone asks.

IllustrativeFour of six comparable projects were asked to revise their stormwater plans in the second round. Staff comments, rounds 1–3

A look inside

Every finding cites the page it came from.

A Navius report brings the whole record for a site into one place: the rules that apply, the boards in the way, and what happened to the projects that went before. Nothing in it is a guess. Each finding links to the document and page that says so, and where the record is silent, the report says that too.

The alternative

Weeks of digging, or finding out the hard way.

Without Navius

A consultant or land-use attorney pulls the records by hand, site by site, over weeks, and still misses what is buried in scanned files and portals. Or you learn it in review, one round at a time.

With Navius

The whole record for your site, read and cited, before you commit to the land, the design or the schedule.
