Introducing PermiPro: Permitting Made Simple
For years, cities across Canada have faced the same challenge: growing populations, rising service expectations, and permitting systems that were never built for today's demands. Construction is delayed, residents are frustrated, and municipalities are left trying to do more with tools that can't keep up. PermiPro was created to fix this. We're a Canadian-built, AI-powered permitting platform designed to modernize how cities handle permit intake, review, and approvals. Our mission is simple: make permitting simple, for both municipalities and the residents they serve.
Our Story: Solving a Problem We've Lived With
PermiPro started with a conversation between two friends discussing the housing crisis and Canada's persistent permit delays. The question we kept asking was:
"If cities want more homes built, why is permitting still so slow?"
That conversation turned into a project.
That project turned into a prototype.
And that prototype became PermiPro — a platform purpose-built to help cities approve safe, compliant projects faster so communities can grow.
Our team includes leaders with backgrounds in construction, law, software engineering, finance, and municipal operations. We've seen the bottlenecks up close, and we built PermiPro to eliminate them.
The Problem Cities Face Today
Across municipalities, three challenges keep appearing:
- Incomplete applications create avoidable back-and-forth and delay simple projects.
- Manual reviews consume staff hours and increase the chance of errors or inconsistencies.
- Outdated systems—PDFs, email chains, and legacy tools—simply weren't designed for the volume or complexity cities face today. Cities need tools that simplify the process, reduce administrative load, and give staff and residents clarity at every step.
Meet PermiPro: Your New Permit Management System
PermiPro is a modern, fully digital platform designed to streamline every step of the permitting process — from intake to review to approval.
Modern Permit Management System
A clean, intuitive dashboard that gives staff visibility into application status, workloads, routing, and timelines.
Applicant Portal
A simple portal where residents and builders can submit materials, upload documents, and track progress in real time — reducing confusion, emails, and missed steps.
AI-Bylaw Compliance Review
PermiPro automatically checks applications against local bylaws to catch issues upfront before staff ever review them. It identifies:
- Missing documents
- Incorrect formats
- Zoning inconsistencies
- Potential compliance issues
This ensures staff only spend time on complete, ready-to-review submissions.
Automated Approvals Engine
For straightforward permits, PermiPro can follow preset rules to auto-approve compliant applications. This accelerates simple cases and frees staff to focus on complex or high-value projects.
Real-Time Dashboards
Managers gain visibility into workloads, bottlenecks, and performance across departments — enabling better decisions and more predictable timelines.
What Makes PermiPro Different
PermiPro was built specifically for municipalities that want modern technology without long, complex rollouts or costly enterprise systems. We offer:
- A clean, intuitive interface staff can learn quickly
- AI trained on municipal bylaws and municipal workflows
- Rapid implementation with minimal IT support
- A platform tailored for small and mid-sized cities
- Customizable rules, workflows, and approval paths
Our goal isn't just to digitize permitting — it's to remove friction, reduce delays, and give cities a permitting system that finally works the way it should.
Our Mission
PermiPro exists to make permitting simple. That means:
- Simple for staff
- Simple for residents
- Simple for builders
- Simple for reviewers
Cities should focus on serving communities, not managing paperwork.
Why We Built PermiPro
Because Canada needs more homes.
Because delays shouldn't hold back development.
Because municipalities deserve modern tools designed specifically for them.
PermiPro helps cities unlock capacity, streamline reviews, and deliver a more predictable experience for residents and builders.
