The Zoning & Entitlement Decoder
A no-code decoder you run in ChatGPT or Claude. Paste a parcel's zoning ordinance and it sorts the allowed uses, pulls the dimensional standards with citations, computes a buildable-unit envelope with the binding constraint named, and maps the entitlement path with a realistic timeline.
Inside the Zoning & Entitlement Decoder:
Your program and decode rules
The lens is yours and it holds across sites, so you can compare buildable envelopes in a market knowing the assumptions did not move.
The decoder engine
Stop reading code language line by line. Get the two answers that matter, can I build it and how hard is it to approve, in minutes.
The buildable-envelope workbook
See exactly how many units a density bonus buys, and whether your parking still fits, in one cell.
The entitlement risk checklist
Catch the entitlement landmines before they blow up a closed land deal, even on a site you decode by hand.
Linden Yards, decoded
See exactly what the output looks like before you paste your own site.
Set it up in under 15 minutes
Five steps from download to your first decoded envelope. No setup, no plumbing.
A broker says develop up to 60 units. The zoning says 24 per acre, the FAR says more, and the parking ratio quietly caps the real number lower than both. Most sites die or overpay in that gap, between what a listing claims and what the code allows by-right. The Zoning & Entitlement Decoder reads the ordinance, sorts the uses, computes the buildable envelope three ways, names the binding constraint, and maps the entitlement path in months, in ChatGPT or Claude, so you know what a parcel can actually hold and how hard it is to approve before you tie up the land.
