Buildability™ for Real Estate Developers
Data version: Q2 2026 · Last updated 2026-04-28
TL;DR. Skip the $12,000 feasibility study. Buildability™ delivers the complete site feasibility package — buildable envelope, setbacks, FAR, height, lot coverage, overlay districts, entitlement complexity, environmental constraints, and infrastructure readiness — in about 20 seconds for $29. Use it to triage your pipeline, respond to RFPs, and price land offers in real time.
Buildable envelope calculation
Buildability™ computes the maximum buildable envelope from the lot dimensions, setback requirements, FAR, lot coverage, and height limit. The output is a number (max buildable sqft), a max story count, and the envelope dimensions. Developers use this as the input to early pro forma models — what's the revenue potential if we max-out the zoning envelope? Compared to a manual zoning analysis (4-8 hours of drafting time), Buildability™'s automated envelope calc is a 1000x speedup.
Entitlement friction scoring
Beyond raw zoning, Buildability™ scores the entitlement friction for any project: how transparent is the review process, is there an expedited pathway, what's the likely timeline, has this jurisdiction approved similar projects recently, and what's the public process risk. High-friction jurisdictions (3+ years of entitlements) get flagged before you commit capital.
Bulk pipeline screening
Growth and Scale plans support CSV uploads for bulk screening. Drop in a list of 25-50 parcels, get back a ranked Buildability™ Report for each. This is how top developers triage their deal flow — focus legal, architectural, and engineering spend on the highest-scoring opportunities.
