Priced against the work — not the seat count.
Our team operates PermitPilot™ inside every Commun-ET engagement. You pay for the permits we move and the program we run, never for software you have to operate.

Pricing, straight answers.
Is PermitPilot sold as standalone software?+
No. PermitPilot™ is never sold, licensed, or handed over. It is Commun-ET's proprietary operated service layer, run by our team inside your engagement. Pricing scales with the work, not seat count.
What's the minimum engagement?+
We don't take work under $3,500. Single-permit projects in regulated metros (NYC DOB, DC, Prince George's County) typically land between $5K and $12K once jurisdiction complexity and review cycles are factored in.
How is the Program tier priced after the $18K starting point?+
Program engagements use a base + per-site + complexity model: a base fee covers the embedded senior principal and our full PermitPilot™ service layer, then we add a per-site retainer (~$1,500–$3,500/site/month depending on phase) and apply a jurisdiction multiplier for heavy metros (NYC, SF, DC core). Most multi-site programs land between $22K and $55K per month.
Do you take equity or success fees?+
Standard engagements are fee-for-service. For large public-private programs we occasionally structure milestone-based bonuses tied to approval dates. We never take equity in client projects.
Can we start small and grow?+
Yes. Most enterprise clients begin with a Per-Permit pilot in one market, then graduate to a Program tier once the operating rhythm is proven. There's no penalty for upgrading mid-engagement.
Do you work outside the United States?+
On request. We've supported Canadian rollouts and limited EU projects through Enterprise engagements. Reach out and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit for the market.
