PermitLens is an AI-assisted pre-submission tool that reads drawing sets, checks confirmed values against bylaw rules, and ties findings to drawing sheets and cited sections.

For
People preparing building-permit drawing sets
Worth noticing
The sample keeps each extracted value tied to a sheet, page, quoted evidence, and reading method.

Field notes

In the displayed example, the drawing's text layer supplies values including a 6.50 m front setback and a 172.80 m² footprint; the sample review marks setbacks and site coverage as meeting checked requirements. The workflow also preserves a correction trail: lowering the sample building height from 10.80 m to 9.80 m resolves that conflict, while the absent parking count still leaves the review incomplete.
