CrossBeam reads your full plan set the way a city plan checker does. It checks the drawings against California law and your city’s local code. You get a list of findings pinned to the sheet, before you submit.

Missing sheets, missing notes, code conflicts, and items your city asks for on every submittal. Each finding cites the code section, points to the spot on the sheet, and says how to fix it in plain language.

Yes. Upload the letter and your plans. CrossBeam pins each correction to its sheet and drafts a response letter you can hand to your architect or engineer.

Developers, general contractors, architects, engineers, and expediters. Homeowners who pull their own permits use it too, most often for a corrections letter.

CrossBeam is built on 480+ California city codes. It reviews permits with an architectural plan set: new homes, ADUs, additions, remodels, and multi-unit. Commercial tenant improvements are covered in some cities. Ask below about your city.

No. The city still reviews your plans and makes the decision. CrossBeam helps you submit a cleaner set, so you get fewer correction rounds.
