Recommended next step

Test whether the deal works

The site clears the initial screen; economics are the next question.

The workflow

Feasibility, in pipeline order.

Screen wide, read the constraints, and spend real diligence only on survivors.

01

Screen the whole pipeline

Every address gets a 0–100 verdict in about 20 seconds, free on the live map. The bad sites die before they book a meeting.

02

Read the envelope

Ask Geo for feasibility and get the buildable envelope — max units, FAR, height, coverage — plus the top risk on the parcel.

03

Stress-test the entitlement

Ask Geo to run the scenario — upzone, utilities, hazards — and see the before/after score and unit delta for the approval you actually plan to seek.

04

Export the paper

The survivors get a full report or IC memo as a PDF — every finding cites the federal dataset it came from.

The deal-killers

The fatal flaws surface first.

Severe findings dominate their factor instead of averaging away.

Mapped floodplain

A FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area (A/V zones) pulls the flood factor deep into the red — and in Florida, flood is weighted at 24% of the score.

No utility access

Utility readiness is scored from real infrastructure proximity. In Texas it carries a 22% weight — the make-or-break question for edge parcels.

Seismic & wildfire country

Very high seismic or wildfire hazard dominates its factor instead of averaging away. In California, each is weighted at 16% — and steep terrain at 20%.

Weights and severity tiers are part of the published methodology — see how the Score works.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does this replace my feasibility consultant?

It replaces the screening pass, not entitlement counsel. Kill the bad sites in seconds, then spend real diligence budget only on the ones that survive.

What's in the full report?

The parcel, its zoning envelope, all nine weighted factors, infrastructure, and market context — exportable as a PDF or IC memo, with every finding cited to its source.

How current is the data?

Sources are queried live on every fresh run — 5 federal agencies plus parcel and zoning partners. Successful lookups are cached for up to 7 days; nothing is ever guessed.

What does it cost?

The live score and Geo chat are free forever. Full reports run on credits: $29 each, sliding to $6 at volume, never expiring — and your first 3 are free.

Walk every site. Pay for the keepers.

The verdict takes about 20 seconds — the bad sites never reach your diligence budget.
