Zoneomics
AI-powered zoning data platform standardizing municipal zoning ordinances across 25,000+ U.S. cities and 14,000+ Canadian/US cities for the Bassett AI assistant. Delivers zoning districts, permitted uses, FAR/height/setback/coverage controls, and overlays in four formats: web platform, tiered zoning reports (Brief/Summary/Full/Verification Letter), a documented Zoning Data API with a free tier (100,000 free API calls on the Tiling Service tier), and Bulk Data. Powers the zoning data layer inside TestFit (Site Solver) and Autodesk Forma (Autodesk-Zoneomics partnership Aug 2024). Also a Moody's data partner.
Best agent-accessible zoning data layer in this set -- a documented REST API with a genuine 100K-call free tier (Tiling Service), confirmed integrations powering TestFit and Autodesk Forma, and a Moody's data partnership give it credible third-party validation; limitations are that full parcel-level API plans are quote-based and the Bassett AI assistant coverage is US/Canada only.
