Buildability™ organizes available evidence from 5 federal agencies and 4commercial sources, then uses Anthropic’s Claude to help interpret it. Available findings identify their source and confidence.

Buildability can run a preliminary federal-hazard and location screen for addresses in all 50 U.S. states.Parcel-level zoning coverage varies by jurisdiction; depth, dimensional standards, overlays, and permit guidance are labeled with their sources and confidence.
