Five tools, one search box

Most teams find the wind problem at the stamp. BIP surfaces it at triage — search, compare, then design.

Lead tool

Multi-Criteria Search

Find exactly what you need — wind speed, population, demographics — all at once, across every U.S. ZIP.

Search now →
Without BIP
  • No single source for wind + demographics + market data
  • Toggling between Census, ASCE maps, GIS tools
  • Can't filter by multiple requirements at once
  • Results scattered across incompatible formats
With BIP
  • Wind speed range filtering to find construction-friendly zones
  • Population & density thresholds for metro, suburban, or rural
  • Stack filters: "low wind + 50K–100K population + Florida + Category II"
  • Unified, sortable results — export to CSV for CRM & territory planning
Days → minutes. Replace hours of toggling Census + ASCE + GIS with one stacked search.
Lead tool

Location Comparison

Compare up to 10 locations side-by-side and make confident, data-driven decisions.

  • 30 seconds for ASCE 7-22 wind speeds (all 4 Risk Categories)
  • Florida Building Code 2023 & municipal amendments auto-updated
  • Permit-ready accuracy
  • Complete location intelligence: demographics, density, county info
2–5 hours → ~30 seconds per address, with every coefficient traceable to its ASCE 7-22 reference.

Hurricane Risk Intelligence

75 years of hurricane data, distilled into a 0–100 risk score in seconds.

Analyze risk →
Without BIP
  • Scattered data across NOAA, NHC, and historical archives
  • Hours analyzing storm tracks and impact zones

Frequently asked questions

How does the 3 searches/week free tier work?

You get 3 uses per week across ALL 5 tools — not 3 per tool. Each search (whether Velocity Finder, Hurricane Risk, or any other tool) counts as 1 use. Your count resets every 7 days from your first use. No credit card required to start.

What counts as a "search"?

One search = one lookup/calculation. Examples: Velocity Finder (1 ZIP code = 1 search), Hurricane Risk (1 location = 1 search), Multi-ZIP Compare (up to 10 ZIPs = 1 search), Solar Site Finder (1 filtered search = 1 search).

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan anytime?

Yes — upgrade instantly for immediate access. Downgrade at any time; changes take effect at your next billing cycle. No penalties, no commitments.

Is the data ASCE 7-22 compliant?

Yes. Our Velocity Finder uses official ASCE 7-22 wind speed maps, Florida Building Code 2023, and verified local authority amendments. All calculations are permit-ready.

Where does the hurricane data come from?

We aggregate 75 years (1950–2024) of data from NOAA, the National Hurricane Center, and historical archives — then our analysis surfaces patterns for risk scoring.

Can I export my data?

Yes — all plans include PDF reports. Professional and Enterprise plans include CSV export for Advanced Search and Multi-ZIP Compare.

Do you offer API access for developers?

Enterprise plans include 1,000 API calls/month. Need more? Custom plans offer unlimited API access with SLA guarantees.

What if I need help?

Free tier: email support (24–48 hr response). Professional: priority email (12 hr response). Enterprise: phone + chat support (4 hr response). Custom: dedicated account manager.
