Everything zoning, for the actual lot.
Enter an address. We apply the code to that specific parcel and show your work.
Every regulation, on the actual parcel
Lot lines, lot type, setbacks, height, FAR, coverage and more — for the specific lot, not a generic zone.
Reports for new builds, additions & ADUs
Tailored outputs for the project types your firm runs most across single-family LA City.
See it on your lot.
Not a generic explainer — the real output, drawn and cited for the specific parcel.
2D sketch with the limits built in
Setbacks and square-footage caps are baked into the canvas — show clients what fits before design begins.
Cited to the exact LAMC section
Every number links the precise code section, with a plain-English note on how it was calculated.
Site alerts before you commit
We flag the things that change a project — easements, power lines or poles, high fire severity zones and hillside areas — right on the lot.

Every path on the lot, side by side.
