"We were losing weeks to surveyor feedback loops on every project. Lodgely caught the ResCode issues at the drawing stage — before they cost us anything."
"As a draftsperson, I used to rely on my own knowledge to pick up compliance issues. Now I have a second set of eyes on every set before it goes out."
"The overlay detection alone is worth it. Getting flagged for a VPO issue at design stage instead of after permit lodgement is a completely different outcome."
