What Builtie adds

In Builtie: the decision makers on this project and their verified contacts, the trades already credited on it, the builder's other active permits, and LinkedIn and email outreach that runs while you work.

Other major projects in Los Angeles

All of them: construction projects in Los Angeles by address. The data is the City of Los Angeles: the building permits the Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) issues. Santa Monica, Burbank, Long Beach and most other cities in Los Angeles County issue their own permits and are not in the feed today; Pasadena, Glendale and unincorporated Los Angeles County have been read separately since October 2026. The city's open dataset names no contractor, so Builtie reads each permit's LADBS record for the contractor and their CSLB license, the architect and the engineer. Many Los Angeles permits are owner-builder, and on those the architect is the first contact.

Plans

Builtie's Starter plan is $79 per seat per month for 20 projects; Growth is $99 for 50 projects and adds the LinkedIn and email outreach you run yourself. Opening a project spends one credit, and the decision makers, emails, phones and AI call script inside it are included. Your monthly credits reset at each renewal, and extra credit packs are valid for 30 days. The free trial runs 7 days with 10 projects. Custom, where Builtie's team runs the outreach for you, starts from $1,500 a month on top of a Growth seat.
