Builder-led ADU delivery
Auto ADU
Do not spend months and thousands on drawings before you know what your lot can actually support. Start with a same-day ADU decision package: fit, plan direction, rough cost, and a GC review call.
The traditional route asks you to commit before the project is clear. Auto ADU starts with the first decision a builder would want to see.
The day-one work product
A first decision before the first big spend.
Most ADU projects start with disconnected advice: drawings before fit is clear, contractor conversations before scope is real, and pricing before assumptions are visible. Auto ADU makes the first step concrete.
The first package is built around a decision, not a blank-page design process.
The page creates speed without pretending every unknown has already been solved.
The sales motion
From address to a smarter first decision.
The pitch is simple: do not start the ADU process by guessing. Start with a package that can be placed, priced, and reviewed against your property.
Read the property
Address, goals, access, existing structures, budget signal, and enough context to avoid a blind first call.
Shape the ADU path
Match the lot to a proven design direction and the constraints that matter before drawing from scratch.
Place and price
Show where the ADU likely sits, what it may cost, and which assumptions could move the scope.
Review with the builder
The page turns the package into a focused call with the person accountable for the build path.
Example detail layer
Use local plan facts without making them the product.
For a Pasadena-style packet, Auto ADU can compare the property against real standard-plan options, current availability, and the site-plan items that still need review before a homeowner spends on custom drawings.
Pasadena's current standard-plan page is also a good warning: posted plans, code-cycle status, and site conditions still have to be checked. That is the work the day-one package should organize.
Why this is different
We are not selling drawings. We are reducing the first bad decision.
Most homeowners start with whichever professional they find first. Auto ADU starts with the decision package a GC needs: can it fit, what is the likely scope, what could change the number, and is this worth moving forward?
Positioning
A faster first answer from the person responsible for building it.
Send the address. Auto ADU prepares the fit, plan direction, budget range, and risk labels so the first call starts where most ADU projects should have started.
