Permits, commercial development, renovation activity, and early-stage project intent data powering contractors, suppliers, lenders, and institutional investors.
The renovation and building ecosystem operates with significant information lag. Key spending decisions are made without early-stage visibility.
Spend significant time on manual estimating and unclear project scopes — no unified view of incoming demand in their market.
React too late to demand signals. By the time permits appear, product and contractor decisions have already been made.
Fragmented, delayed, and inconsistent across Canadian cities. No unified format — dozens of incompatible systems and APIs.
RenoIntel aggregates renovation intelligence from three compounding data layers, creating the earliest and most complete view of residential construction demand in Canada.
Municipal APIs, open data feeds, manual CSV/Excel imports, email-based permit updates, and software partnerships — currently covering 28 cities across 6 provinces.
RenoPlanner.ai — A homeowner-facing renovation planning and budgeting tool that captures early-stage intent before permits or contractor engagement begins. Produces structured project-level data (scope, budget, location, timeline) that feeds the intelligence layer.
PermitPal — A permit directory and AI agent dedicated to helping homeowners and contractors with permit support, application tracking, and submission. Unlike municipal data which arrives weeks or months after the fact, PermitPal captures permit intent and application activity in real time — giving RenoIntel a proprietary, first-party stream of permit data that no competitor can access. This is the long-term foundation for building our own source of permit intelligence, independent of any municipality.
10,000+ contractor ecosystem feeding real-world project activity. Validates demand signals from other layers and continuously improves data accuracy and coverage.
A continuously expanding data pipeline designed to increase coverage, freshness, and granularity over time — compounding with each phase.
Unlike traditional permit tracking platforms, RenoIntel does not rely solely on post-approval data. We combine four signal layers to create a multi-layer, address-level dataset of active and emerging renovation projects.
Defensibility is built on three compounding advantages that become harder to replicate over time.
RenoPlanner.ai captures demand data before permits exist. PermitPal captures the permit application itself. Together they give us intent-to-submission coverage that no competitor can replicate.
No single competitor has access to all data layers simultaneously. Our architecture normalizes across dozens of incompatible city systems.
Contractors, homeowners, and brands continuously improve dataset quality. Each new participant strengthens the system for all others.
The North American home renovation market exceeds $100B annually. Despite this scale, decision-making across contractors, brands, and retailers remains fragmented and reactive.
Two core products forming a closed-loop system that connects demand creation through to supply chain activation.
Real-time renovation intelligence and demand tracking platform for contractors, suppliers, and brands. Aggregates and structures permit signals, contractor activity, and intent data into actionable intelligence.
Homeowner-facing renovation planning and budgeting tool. Captures early-stage project intent — scope, budget, location, timeline — before permits or contractors are engaged. Feeds the intelligence layer continuously.
