Instant site clarity

Enter a site address to generate an instant profile—complete with policy constraints, designations, and past applications. Arcuate removes hours of early-stage prep work so you can scope sites faster and move forward with clarity.

Answers without the digging

Ask any planning or building question in plain English and get a precise, citation-backed answer. Arcuate helps you move faster, avoid errors, and spend less time digging through documents for the rule that actually matters.

Built for real project work

Create a live workspace for each project and combine site context with focused research. Arcuate filters answers through your project intent and constraints, helping you build regulatory intelligence that’s tailored, traceable, and ready to use.

Proof, not guesswork

Arcuate delivers answers you can trust—concise, relevant, and tied directly to the source material. Every sentence is traceable to the exact line in policy, guidance, or precedent, so you can check the evidence and cite it with confidence.
