Section 04 · The Intelligence Engine

Mapped on day one. Updated every minute after.

Platineer isn't a permit search tool you check once a week. It's an intelligence engine with your entire market already indexed — and it keeps watching, scoring, and surfacing the work that matches your business the moment it lands.

  1. I.

    Your market is already mapped.

    Every active and upcoming construction project in your metro — permits, plan reviews, plats, owner records — has already been indexed, scored, and stitched together by Platineer's intelligence engine. The day you onboard, you have full visibility from minute one. We keep it current around the clock; new signals land within minutes.

  2. II.

    We alert you the moment a lead matches.

    Every new project is scored against your trade fit, zip codes, valuation bands, and decision-maker reachability. The instant one clears your threshold, Platineer pings you — by email, by mobile, or right in the dashboard. The work that matters surfaces; the rest stays out of your way.

  3. III.

    You win more bids.

    Open your morning brief, scan the night's matches, and pick the leads worth chasing. Track each from cold project signal to closed contract — or set the system on autopilot and let qualified work walk through your inbox.

§ 01
When a plat lands

The math is already done.

Every new plat application in your market is automatically matched to the developer's prior projects, the engineer of record, and the GCs they've worked with before. By the time the project enters plan review, you already know whose call list you need to be on.

§ 02
When a project clears your filters

You're the first call.

Set your trade and territory once. Every match lands in your inbox the morning it does — applicant name, plan-review status, valuation, decision-maker reachability. No hunting. No spreadsheet downloads. No spreadsheet to forget to download.

§ 03
When the bid sheet finally drops

You're already on it.

The contractors who win the most bids aren't reading more permits — they're reading the right ones, weeks earlier. Platineer surfaces projects in time for you to introduce yourself to the developer and the GC long before you'd otherwise hear the project exists.
