How it works
Available data, one preliminary view.
Buildability geocodes the address, queries available flood, seismic, soil, radon, wildfire, and zoning context, and runs the published Buildability Score. Reports name the sources used and the items that still need local verification.

Does Buildability make the official zoning decision in Austin?
No. Buildability organizes preliminary property context and links to local evidence.
What does the Buildability Score measure?
The preliminary score considers nine factors: zoning, flood, seismic, soil, radon, wildfire, utilities, terrain, and lot geometry. Availability and depth vary by address and source; City of Austin remains the local authority for project-specific decisions.
