The honest version
Most permit delay is not the city being slow.
It is an incomplete submittal, a correction letter waiting on the right consultant, or an agency sign-off nobody knew was needed until plan check. Those are the applicant-side delays Ostar is built to prevent.
We cannot shorten a jurisdiction’s review clock. We make sure nothing waits on you.
