For developers

Finding a site that works is most of the job.

Before you call an owner, you've checked the zoning, the lot, the plans and what's around it. My map does that first pass across a whole corridor, so you start with a short list.

Sound familiar?

Fewer deals work on paper right now, so every dead end costs more.

Your team's hours go to parcels that were never going to work.

Zoning, plans and land values live in five different places.

By the time a good site is listed, someone else is already on it.

How it works

  1. Pick the area.A corridor, a neighborhood, the edge of a county. I build it once.
  2. Set what matters.Zoning, lot size, transit, what the city plans next. Move the weights and the ranking moves with them.
  3. Get the short list.Each site shows why it rose, so you can check it in five minutes instead of thirty.
