On the map
01The lot brief is free — and instant
Open any covered property and the numbers appear before you spend anything: buildable square feet, the zoning district, clearance on every side of the existing structure, and the year built.
Where: Properties → open a property
02Casual clicks never cost you
Tapping around the map can’t drain your balance. A stray click stages the parcel and asks first — “Score this parcel? Runs a live lookup.” Nothing runs until you say so.
Where: Properties map → click anywhere
03Reopen a report without paying twice
Every report you’ve bought reopens free, from Recent reports on your dashboard or from Documents, with all its data. Bought once is bought.
Where: Dashboard → Recent reports · Documents
04Ask "what if" before it’s real
Geo’s scenario tool re-scores a parcel under a changed assumption — a rezone, utilities added, a hazard resolved — through the same engine as the real report, and hands back the before/after delta. Scenarios are free.
Where: Geo chat → "what if this were rezoned to…"
Design studio
05Draw the building you’re imagining
The Design Studio puts blocks, triangles, and any-sided shapes on your actual lot, to scale, checked live against the setbacks. Drag a wall to stretch it; drag a corner to reshape it; type exact dimensions.
Where: Properties → property → Design studio
06Hold Shift for clean angles
Dragging a corner with Shift held snaps the wall to 45° increments — crisp L-shapes and wings instead of wobbly sketches. Rotating a block snaps it to right angles of its original orientation as you pass them.
Where: Design studio → drag a corner + Shift
07Double-click to sculpt
Double-click any wall to add a corner right there. Double-click a corner to remove it. Between the two you can carve a rectangle into a courtyard plan without ever opening a menu.
Where: Design studio → double-click an edge or corner
08Describe it — AI drafts the massing
Type “two-story farmhouse with a garage and a porch” and the AI drafts realistic parts with real-world dimensions, placed on your lot and aware of the local height limit. Then drag, resize, and make it yours.
Where: Design studio → Draft with AI
09The keyboard is faster
Undo any edit with ⌘Z. Delete removes the selected block. Esc drops the selection. The studio keeps a full history, so experiments are free.
Where: Design studio → ⌘Z · Delete · Esc
Reports & certificates
10Put your name on the certificate
Every certificate has a "present it as yours" step — your name and firm print on the document, remembered for next time. No subscription required; brokers use it to hand clients a branded deliverable.
Where: Certificate → Present it as yours
11Pick the document’s color
The certificate’s seal, key numbers, and site diagram take whatever accent color you choose — presets or the full picker — and your browser remembers it for the next one.
Where: Certificate → Document color
12Anyone can verify your certificate
Each certificate carries an ID and a QR code. /verify looks it up in our register and recomputes the Score from the stored record under the methodology it was issued with. You’re not asking anyone to trust a PDF — you’re handing them the proof.
Where: Certificate → scan the QR, or the /verify link
13Your own numbers print in the report
Pencil It runs your deal math — proposed square footage, units, acquisition price — and the resulting cost, value band, and margin print into the export alongside the official record.
Where: Property → Pencil It → export
Stretch every dollar
14The discount applies itself
Reports slide from $99 down to $79 automatically as quantity grows — no code, no call. Reports at $89 from three, $79 from ten. And they never expire: buy at the volume price today, spend them next year.
Where: Billing → the report packs
15A lot of it is free forever
The live Score on any address in America is free — every factor, every citation. So are the parts people use daily: Geo chat, what-if scenarios, the sweep, bulk scoring and the lot brief.
Where: No card needed
16One Pro covers the whole team
Invited teammates don’t need their own subscription — seats ride the owner’s Pro, and everyone draws from one shared report pool that rolls over month to month.
Where: Settings → Members & roles → Invite
