PermitOS: one control layer for permitting
A residential permit is a chain of documents, reviews, and inspections held by different people. PermitOS puts that chain under one control layer, built first for one of the most demanding permitting environments in the country.
Permitting held together by memory.
For a residential builder, a single project moves through drawings, applications, reviewer comments, inspections, and closeout documentation, each tracked somewhere different and each able to stall the job. In Charleston, historic and coastal review add further layers. The question was whether permit readiness and inspection prep could be run as one controlled system instead of a folder of reminders.
Decompose. Digitize. Solve at the integrations.
The Sequence method, applied end to end — the same move that runs through every Digi-DNA project.
The permit is the unit
Reduce the job to the permit and what it depends on: the documents it needs, the reviews it must pass, and the inspections that close it out.
Readiness made visible
Capture each requirement, document, and inspection as a tracked item so readiness is a state the builder can see, not a judgment call.
One control layer
Bring permit readiness, inspection prep, and project documentation into one place, so the builder works from a single record from application to closeout.
Permitting is a field-operations problem with a paper trail. The same Sequence applies: find the unit, make every variable visible, and solve where the handoffs break.
One layer, application to closeout.
- One control layer — permit readiness, inspection prep, and project documentation in a single system.
- Built for Charleston first — designed against one of the most layered residential permitting environments in the region.
- Live — running with sign-in and onboarding for residential builders.
