"Swiftbuild.ai's offering comes as President Donald Trump has urged the nation's largest homebuilders to increase new housing starts. He has also called on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to get big homebuilders going, claiming that builders are sitting on two million empty lots. The National Association of Home Builders and several housing economists point to zoning restrictions and permitting delays as major contributors to the national housing shortage."
"Leaders said SwiftGov reduced zoning review times from nearly 30 days to just two in Hernando County, Florida expediting approvals for more than 6,000 single-family homes as the county rebuilds following last year's hurricanes. The county estimates more than $1 million in direct cost savings and reports faster approvals for staff, developers and residents, according to Swiftbuild.ai. We believe these modernization and efficiency efforts will set a national example for the practical and responsible use of AI in local government."
Swiftbuild.ai offers SwiftGov, a suite of digital tools for city and county governments to update zoning codes, manage plan reviews, and accelerate building permits. Zoning restrictions and permitting delays are identified as major contributors to the national housing shortage, while federal leaders and big builders push to increase housing starts. SwiftGov reportedly cut zoning review times in Hernando County, Florida, from nearly 30 days to two days, expediting approvals for over 6,000 single-family homes and producing an estimated more than $1 million in direct cost savings. Swiftbuild.ai is expanding pilots, including Jacksonville, to streamline permitting and compliance for new developments.
