PropCode Release Rapid Planning Report Tool
PropCode, an innovative AI-powered software tool, is revolutionising Australia's planning process. Trusted by property planners, architecture professionals, and local governments, it is also backed by leading venture capital investors. PropCode have created an AI-powered regulatory engine, that has deep knowledge of planning regulations and building rules in NSW and is ready to share helpful insights with you in seconds.
PropCode is born from the minds of Will Sullivan and Jonah Turnquist. Will's diverse career spans studies of the built and natural environment, and specialisations in data analysis and technologies, with Will now based in urban planning. Will's previous foray into technological innovation included the building of the Mecone Mosaic mapping tool which is now widely used across the Australian property and planning spheres. Jonah boasts over ten years of experience in the software industry delivering secure and creative software solutions across roles in software development, engineering leadership and AI.
Together, their nuanced experiences form the perfect backdrop for PropCode; one that is sympathetic of the difficulties of understanding planning regulations, but is driven by a deep understanding of the Australian industry and viable solutions to tricky problems. Will and Jonah have combined their decades of combined industry experience to create PropCode; the invaluable tool that instils beginners with the wisdom of seasoned planning experts.
Up until this point in time, the responsibility of reading and understanding regulations fell to the individual, leading to errors in comprehension. Now, PropCode CDC is available to provide accurate answers to thousands of planning questions, drawing upon its knowledge of published regulations and delivering answers instantaneously. PropCode CDC is a tool designed to accurately determine whether a residential project in NSW qualifies for CDC approval, a popular streamlined fast-track approval process. Showing maximum height and floor area, minimum lot area and other important building regulations, the tool even provides a transparent audit trail for user reassurance and ease.
Since its release in December 2022, PropCode CDC has been credited with assisting innumerable architects, developers, clients and certifiers in their search for clear and simple guidance on the convoluted residential project CDC eligibility. Its applicability and benefit has been so widely noted since its inception that it was selected for the NSW Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure's AI Solutions Panel in May 2024, described as a "suitable and mature AI product" for Councils.
Continuing on their trajectory of technological innovation, PropCode have proudly announced the introduction of their latest AI tool, Rapid Planning Report (RPR). Launching in January 2025, the latest addition to the PropCode arsenal marks a major leap forward in the development of the property industry for the modern age.
Engaging PropCode's proprietary AI engine, the tool generates a planning report in just minutes, that strikes the perfect balance between detailed and simple. By researching a massive library of relevant references, from applicable planning documents and maps (from LEP, DCP and SEPP in NSW), the report clearly outlines the ins and outs of a variety of tedious documents in one comprehensive, easy-to-decipher report. The tools versatility is widespread, applicable to covered LGA's to analyse any project type, including all 195 standard NSW land uses.
PropCode’s success comes from the expertise of its founders, CEO Will and CTO Jonah. Their combined experience in the built environment, software development, urban planning, engineering, and AI has helped create an innovative platform that meets the industry's complex needs. Their diverse skill set bridges the gap between technology and urban planning, offering powerful, intuitive tools. The unique culmination of skills, expertise and dedication to synthesising the difficulty of the planning and property industry is at the core of PropCode and its results.
