How PullPermits.ai files it for you
Douglas County is on our rollout list. Once it's live, PullPermits.ai will draft and file through Email / PDF submission the same way it does in Atlanta today — you stay the named applicant and approve before anything is submitted.
- Step 1
Describe the job once
Tell PullPermits.ai the address and what you're doing. No re-typing your license, business, or insurance details — they're already on file from onboarding.
- Step 2
We draft it for that portal
PullPermits.ai drafts the application to the city's or county's own form, so every field matches what its portal asks for — and flags anything it needs from you.
- Step 3
You see a plain-English preview
Review the full application and a line-by-line fee breakdown before anything is submitted. Nothing is filed until you say so.
- Step 4
You tap Approve & File
Only after you approve do we file with the city or county under your own account. You pay the county's fee directly on its own payment page, at exact cost — we never mark it up or touch it.
