We’re thrilled to announce that PermitFlow has raised a $54 million Series B to further build and scale Construction’s AI workforce! The round was led by Accel, with participation from Kleiner Perkins, Felicis, and our existing investors. Accel General Partner Vas Natarajan said: “As infrastructure and housing projects accelerate globally, there's so much compliance, regulatory and legal overhead to manage. PermitFlow entirely redefines that complex, time-consuming work with AI.” Today, the country’s leading construction teams place their trust in PermitFlow, including Lennar, Amazon, and DICK'S Sporting Goods. Together, we’ve powered over $20 billion in construction value nationwide. With this new funding, we’re accelerating product development across our growing suite of AI agents, and expanding our team to support it. Our platform breaks down the biggest barriers to housing affordability, modernizing infrastructure, and scaling clean energy, proving that smarter construction can help America build faster and more affordably. Thank you to all of our customers, investors, and partners who believe in our mission to modernize how America builds.  🔗 Interested in joining us as we build construction’s AI workforce?

Nothing slows down a generator install faster than messy permitting. The back-and-forth of researching each AHJ’s requirements, compiling documents, and waiting on approvals drags projects out before they even begin. If you're still navigating the #permitting process with spreadsheets, scattered emails, and messy notes, you're burning time you could be using to book more jobs. In this guide for electricians and technicians, we break down how to streamline the process of pulling generator permits to keep installs on schedule and crews in the field.

“Construction technology adoption is critical; simply adapting to the environment is not enough. We must adopt these tools into our day-to-day operations.” Wise words from Joshua LaSharr, CPTM, a senior consultant at Well Built Construction Consulting. In an article for Construction Dive, Josh highlights digital drawing sets as a great example of how #contech reduces the time, space, and energy spent on a critical task in construction. Permitting is another equally critical task ripe for automation. Permitting delays are more than an inconvenience. They stall your crew, push back schedules, and interrupt cash flow. With every jurisdiction playing by different rules, getting permit applications right the first time is what keeps work moving. And that’s where a permit management platform proves its value. #ConstructionTechnology #Construction #BuildingPermits

Some permits are just…different. Permit approval processes can be stacked with unusual requirements, whether that’s a tough jurisdiction with tons of hoops to jump through or a project with multiple overlapping scopes. Trying to figure it out yourself means: ⏱ Weeks of lost time 💸 Thousands in delays and added overhead 📈 Even greater impact on projects with larger scopes It’s better to get those complex permits off your plate with permit management software. A permit management platform makes it easier to work with fussy AHJs and navigate complex projects. We broke down why specialized and complex permits demand a different approach — and how permit software pays for itself in approvals won, delays avoided, and dollars saved. #ConstructionTech #ConTech #Permits #Construction #Builders #GeneralContractors #Development

When construction start volume slows, efficiency matters more than ever. August saw some noticeable drops in residential construction starts: 🏠 Single-family starts: -11.7% YoY / -7% MoM 🏢 Multifamily starts: -10.8% YoY / -6.7% MoM With financing tight and costs high, the projects that do move forward have zero room for wasted time or errors. That’s where builders and contractors have leverage: controlling what you can control. Permit submissions done right the first time. Approvals tracked. Processes simplified so your crews aren’t sitting idle waiting on paperwork. Of course, even in a slowdown, housing demand remains. And the builders who keep projects moving will be first in line when opportunities open up. #ConstructionTech #ConTech #Permits #Housing #HousingConstruction

Window installation specialists know the job inside out. The real challenge for installs and upgrades lies beyond the worksite: permitting. Every jurisdiction has different requirements. And overlooking the nuances can slow down even the most straightforward job. If permits drag, everything drags: timelines, cash flow, and even client relationships. Automating the permitting process keeps projects moving and your crew focused on the work that pays. We wrote this guide to show window contractors the hidden impact permitting can have on their businesses.
