ImprovedPermit Assistant

Permit Assistant opens on a centered city-specific prompt

City chat links now open that city's assistant whether or not you're signed in, starting on one centered question, "What are you building?". Suggestions are the city's own curated questions plus "I'm not sure what permit I need", and the page drops the cycling multilingual placeholder and duplicate title.

ImprovedPre-Check

PreCheck uploads survive stalls and dropped connections

A stalled upload is aborted and retried with backoff once the device is back online, closing the tab mid-upload asks for confirmation, and a failed upload offers Try again, which re-sends only unfinished files to the same project instead of creating a duplicate.

FixedPre-Check

One PreCheck receipt for every submittal round

Resubmitting revised plans for round 2 or 3 now sends its own submission receipt email. Each round is tracked separately, so a retry within the same round still never sends a duplicate.

FixedPlan Review

Distinct defects no longer dropped from Building letters

A Building correction letter no longer silently drops an item just because its text says "see" another item. Duplicate items are now decided from the review itself, so a separate defect that references another correction stays in the letter.
