    The planner's
    instrument set.

    Five small, sharp utilities for the parts of public-notice work that waste an afternoon. Buffer-and-mail. List-and-print. Parcel-and-verify. Address-to-APN. And a directory of every county's parcel REST URL. They run in the browser. Nothing leaves your machine.

    FIND MY PARCEL NUMBER

    Find My Parcel Number by Address

    Type a U.S. street address. The U.S. Census Geocoder pins it to a state and county; if your county is indexed, you go straight to Parcel Lookup with the REST URL pre-filled. Get to your APN in one hop.

    • Auto-match to 117 indexed counties
    • One-click into Parcel Lookup
    • Stateless edge proxy, nothing stored

    Wire the atlas into your agent.
