For state Departments of Transportation
Modern permitting for state DOTs — workflow-first, AI-augmented, white-labeled.
Issue, manage, and analyze land-use and right-of-way permits on a platform that matches how your bureau actually works — with AI doing the friction-heavy parts.
Built for DOTs
The bureau is the product, not an afterthought.
ROW & Utilities, Construction Permits, Access Management — PermitServAI models the parallel review tracks, conditional branching, SLA timers, and conditions libraries your staff already use, instead of forcing your process into a generic form builder.
Permit types
Five permit types out of the box, unlimited custom.
Right-of-Way & Utilities
Reference implementation — full workflow, forms, conditions library.
Construction & Traffic Engineering
Reference implementation — engineering + traffic review tracks.
Access Management
Reference implementation — sight distance, ADT, driveway permits.
Environmental & Drainage
Framework stub — clone and extend to your process.
Outdoor Advertising & Commerce
Framework stub — clone and extend to your process.
Clone any default, edit its form schema and workflow in-app, and version it — in-flight permits stay on the version they were created with.
AI that pulls weight
Seven places AI removes the friction.
Application intake assistant
Conversational form-filling that maps plain answers to the right fields.
Document extraction
Pulls structured data from site plans, surveys, plats, and insurance certs.
Completeness check
Flags missing fields and doc/form inconsistencies before submission.
Reviewer copilot
Summarizes long applications, drafts conditions, surfaces risk flags.
Conflict & clash detection
Cross-permit and spatial-overlap checks, nightly and on demand.
Applicant Q&A chatbot
Status, requirements, and FAQ — never your internal review notes.
Natural-language analytics
Ask for the numbers; get the chart and the query behind it.
Workflow engine
A workflow engine that matches how your bureau actually works.
Parallel review tracks, conditional branching on application data, SLA timers with escalation, and a conditions library applied at approval. Every state change is append-only and audited — the history is the source of truth.
White-labeling
Branded for your agency.
Your logo, colors, and favicon. A subdomain or your own custom domain with automatic SSL. Even the vocabulary — call it a permit, an authorization, an encroachment, or a license. Applicants never see “PermitServAI.”
Compliance roadmap
SOC 2 Type II now-ish, FedRAMP Moderate when you need it.
Audit logging on every state change, login, and permission change; encryption at rest and in transit; MFA; per-tenant data isolation and export. SOC 2 Type II in year one, FedRAMP Moderate when the first government customer requires it — the architecture is built for that destination from day one.
Pricing
14-day full-functionality trial.
Try the whole platform for two weeks, then move to a contracted agreement through alent.net. No feature gates during the trial.
