How do I get around the app?

Quick answer: The top nav has Projects, Drive, and Ask AI for ordinary builder accounts. City-sponsored PreCheck accounts use a smaller navigation with Projects and their city's Ask AI. Click your email address on the right for your credit balance, Help, Settings, and Sign out. Click the CrossBeam wordmark to go back to Projects from anywhere.

Steps

  1. Click Projects to see your reviews. New projects start from the New Project button there.

  2. Click Drive to store documents. Click Ask AI to ask a permit question.

  3. Click your email address in the top-right to open the account menu.
