Score Address
LIVE-score any real US street address: geocodes it, pulls live federal data (FEMA flood, USGS seismic, USDA soil, EPA radon, USFS wildfire, OSM utilities), and runs the real Buildability Score. Use whenever the user names an address that search_parcels does not know. Takes a few seconds. Executed server-side (async).
Search Parcels
Search scored parcels by text (address, city, state, zoning) and/or filters. Returns ranked matches with their real Buildability Score. Use for "find me…" / sourcing questions.
Explain Score
Get the full factor-by-factor breakdown for one parcel: overall score, grade, status, and every factor with its sub-score and a plain-English note. Use to explain WHY a parcel scores what it does.
Parcel Details
Full facts for one parcel: zoning standards, valuation, comps, hazards, ownership, lot size, Opportunity Zone. Use for deep due-diligence questions.
Feasibility
Buildable-envelope + score for one parcel: max units, FAR, height, coverage, plus the Score and top risk. Use for "what can I build here?" / capacity questions.
Run Scenario
Re-score a parcel under "what-if" levers and return the before/after delta (score + units). Levers: upzone, flood (de-flood/mitigate), utilities, hazards.
Pencil Proforma
Pencil a development pro-forma for one parcel with the versioned Pencil It engine: fit vs the zoning envelope (with headroom), cost stack, value band from curated comps (explicit valueBasis), margin band (ONLY when acquisitionPrice is given — never quote a margin without land cost), rent yield when the basis is valid, residual land value for vacant land. Same engine as the report tab — identical inputs give identical answers.
Market Index
Rank metros on the City Buildability Index (a top-down market score, distinct from a parcel Score) with component breakdowns (supply, demand, regulatory, hazard). Use for "which market / where should I build", "compare Austin and Denver", "rank my markets".
