Los Angeles is no stranger to innovation, but the city’s construction permitting process has long been considered outdated, inefficient, and expensive. Now, thanks to a bold new initiative announced by Governor Gavin Newsom and developer Rick Caruso, that reality is shifting—with artificial intelligence leading the way.

The Power of Instant Plan Reviews

Utilizing AI to scan architectural plans for real-time building code compliance is a revolutionary concept. Instead of waiting weeks for manual reviews, contractors and homeowners can receive feedback almost instantly. This enables faster project kickoffs, more efficient planning, and fewer costly revisions during construction.

What used to be a bottleneck is now becoming a launchpad.
