Preconstruction regulatory intelligence that turns weeks of manual research into hours.
Construction firms spend $6,000 – $24,000 per project on manual regulatory consulting. The research spans dozens of agencies, hundreds of codes, and thousands of pages — and it repeats every single project.
Every role in preconstruction touches regulatory compliance differently. Civalent serves them all with role-aware views.
No competitor combines multi-jurisdictional mapping, proactive monitoring, and automated compliance documents.
