The project
Archistar is joining forces with the City of Los Angeles and LA County to fast-track rebuilding after the devastating wildfires – deploying our AI-powered eCheck technology to dramatically accelerate permit approvals and help residents return home faster, with less red tape.
Unveiled by Governor Gavin Newsom and reported on by the Los Angeles Times, this initiative brings world-first digital permitting technology to one of the country’s largest and most complex jurisdictions, cutting through backlogs by:
- Automatically checking building designs for code compliance before submission
- Helping property owners pre-validate plans, avoiding frustrating delays
- Dramatically reducing permit review timelines for government agencies
- Delivering faster, smarter, and fairer approvals for residents and businesses
As seen on
Now approved statewide across California
eCheck is now procured for statewide use, eliminating the need for local RFPs and making adoption fast and simple for any city, county, or agency in California.
If your agency is based in California and looking to reduce permitting backlogs and improve turnaround times, we’d love to show you how eCheck can help – get in touch for a demo.
Already, more than 25 forward-thinking municipalities across the U.S. and Canada are piloting eCheck to streamline approvals, including the City of San Francisco, New York, Austin, San Jose, Kansas City, and Vancouver.Â
Join the growing network of cities embracing faster, smarter permitting.
What this means for developers & architects
If your city is participating in an eCheck pilot or partnership, you’ll be able to start pre-checking plans for compliance as soon as it’s live on your council’s website. Know someone at your local council who could benefit from eCheck? We’d love an introduction – get in touch and help bring eCheck to your city.
