Use Cases

Built for the teams keeping California safe.

Whether you run a two person review firm or manage a department of ten, Mason fits the way your team already works.

Who It's For

Three kinds of teams. One common problem.

Volume is up. Experienced reviewers are retiring. Mason is built for the teams managing both at once.

Private Plan Review Firms

They struggle to hire against tight turnaround requirements. Retirements are accelerating, and the pool of civil engineers to hire from is shrinking.

Private Providers

There are simply too many permits to keep up with, and legislation continues to expand the industry.

Solo Practitioners

We help them improve margins enough to justify taking on the higher-volume, steadier work of residential plans.

Workflow

Drop in the plans. Walk out with a letter.

Mason handles the review from upload to comment letter. Your team handles the decisions.

  • Upload the Permit Set: Drop in the PDF. Mason reads the full plan set and begins checking it against the California building code.
  • Mason Runs the Check: Every applicable code section gets reviewed. Failed items surface to the top automatically.
  • Reviewer Reads and Decides: Your professional reads Mason's findings, verifies the code citations, and accepts or edits each comment.
  • Export the Letter: The finished comment letter goes out in your office format. No reformatting step.

What Mason Covers

Every code your reviewers work with. In one place.

Trained on the full California code stack and updated with every new cycle.
