About Symbium
Symbium is reinventing the citizen-to-government experience, with an initial focus on permitting and incentives for residential decarbonization projects (E.g., installation of solar panels, energy storage, heat pumps, etc.). Homeowners and contractors use Symbium’s Citizen’s Dashboard to instantly understand and visualize what’s possible on a property, then submit and manage permits and rebates, subject to pay-per-use transaction fees. Using Symbium, permits are issued instantly because the regulatory checks are built right into the web interface. Key to this disruption is Symbium’s proprietary computational law (or Complaw®) tech, which enables a TurboTax-like mechanization of legal analyses through software in a swift and lean manner, initially developed by the founding team at Stanford’s AI Lab.
Why Now
The US has a Transformational Goal of 100% clean electricity by 2035. Necessary to the transition is the decarbonization via retrofits of millions of square feet of pre-existing buildings. Some of the biggest bottlenecks in these projects—frequently resulting in delays and decreased margins—are regulatory red tape and permit issuances. Symbium is enabling American cities to achieve these transformational and timely goals, while providing significant time and cost savings to homeowners and contractors through home electrification projects.
