Scoped to Seattle SDCIkitchen & bath remodels - the moat expands city by city.

The cost of filing blind

A rejected permit does not just cost a resubmission - it costs a payroll week.

Filing unsure means gambling the job timeline on a coin flip. Meanwhile a full expediter runs $300 to $2,000 on a job whose whole margin is a few thousand dollars. Solo crews are stuck between the two.

Every city's forms, drawings, and rules are different and scattered

You're guessing which documents this project actually needs

There's no way to know you're ready until the city tells you you're not

From address to approved package

Five steps. One guided intake. A package your city recognizes.

01
Enter project + Seattle address
One guided intake: pick your project type and drop in the jobsite address. That is the whole setup.
02
The exact forms are identified
PermitPilot surfaces the specific SDCI forms this project needs - not a generic pile of PDFs.
03
Your application is pre-filled
Project details flow straight into a ready-to-review application preview, so you are not retyping.
04
A pass/fail readiness checklist is built
Every required document gets a clear pass or fail state, so you know what is still missing.
05
Rejection triggers are flagged first
The specific reasons this AHJ bounces applications are caught before you ever hit submit.

What is in the package

A clear pass/fail readiness check so you know the package is complete before you submit.

Jurisdiction-specific checklist and pre-filled application, not a generic PDF.

Right forms, every time

Every Seattle form, surfaced automatically

Stop hunting across the SDCI site for which forms a kitchen remodel actually needs. PermitPilot pulls the exact required set for your project and jurisdiction - and leaves out the ones that do not apply.

Know before you go

A pass/fail readiness checklist, not a guess

Each required document shows a clear pass, fail, or pending state, backed by a live readiness score. You find out what is missing at your desk - not at the permit counter after a drive downtown.

The core differentiator

Rejection triggers, caught before the city sees them

PermitPilot knows the specific reasons Seattle actually bounces applications and flags them on your package first - so one missing field does not restart the review clock and idle your crew for weeks.
