What It Does

When an AI assistant user asks about property zoning, ADUs, flood risk, or buildability, the MCP tools:

  1. Geocode the address via Mapbox

  2. Return a structured property preview with key data points

  3. Generate a deep link to the full ReadyPermit Buildability Report

  4. The user gets their first report free — no signup required
