# Finish wetland and stream permitting in days, not weeks.

_Nature tech for environmental consultants_

Ecobot for Permitting is the purpose-built platform for wetland and stream assessment and aquatic resources permitting, from field to USACE-ready deliverable. Ecobot for Monitoring is a separate product, in private beta.

## Two components. One connected workflow.

Most environmental professionals entered this field to practice science, not to spend evenings cleaning spreadsheets and assembling reports. Ecobot reduces that administrative burden by connecting Ecobot Collector in the field with Ecobot Manager in the office, so projects move from data point to deliverable without the rework.

## Two products, built on one platform.

Ecobot Collector and Ecobot Manager power every Ecobot product. Today they support two product lines.

### Ecobot for Permitting

Commercially available. Complete wetland and stream assessments faster and more consistently, with AI-assisted vegetation and soil suggestions, GNSS-grade location, structured photo management, and report-ready exports for USACE submittal.

### Ecobot for Monitoring (private beta)

A separate product for post-permit monitoring, built on the same Collector + Manager platform. Wetlands monitoring is in private beta today; an aquatic resources module is in progress. Join the waitlist to talk with the team.

## Built for the realities of field work.

- **5×**, Faster from field collection to draft report than legacy paper-and-spreadsheet workflows.
- **100%**, Structured documentation, every data point geotagged, photographed, and review-ready.
- **4.9★**, Ecobot Collector rating on the iOS App Store from working environmental consultants.

## How Ecobot for Permitting works.

An end-to-end workflow for wetland and stream delineation and aquatic resources permitting. Post-permit monitoring is a separate product, available in private beta.

### 1. Field delineation and data collection

Ecobot Collector standardizes wetland and stream data capture, vegetation, soils, hydrology, photos, GNSS location, even offline.

### 2. QA and assembly

Ecobot Manager gives office teams a structured review surface: photo workflow, survey merge, role-based permissions, and report-ready exports.

### 3. Permit application

Generate consistent USACE-ready documentation across projects, teams, and offices, defensible data that holds up to regulatory scrutiny.
