You currently discover the real constraints in schematic design, after you've drawn something, and after you've committed hours you may not bill. Bucky front-loads the zoning envelope, setbacks, and site risks so the first sketch is already compliant.

Zoning research is part of what we're paid for.
Bucky offers margin recovery, not scope reduction.
This will produce generic design.
Bucky produces the source of truth, not the design.
We work in one city and we know it.
A sourced workspace still saves report-assembly time even when the city is familiar. You keep the judgment; Bucky holds the record.
How do we actually use this?
The same project carries the site from screening through feasibility, entitlement, and team formation. Start with one address. Add people only when that stage needs them — a viewer for a client, a stakeholder for a planner, a partner when you hire. Bucky is the pre-development record, not the construction job site.
Who gets added to a project?
You first. Add a colleague only if they will work in Bucky. Invite a client as a viewer, or send a share link. Track a planner or lender as a stakeholder without giving them a seat. Do not add the whole office on day one.
What's the best way to roll this out?
One champion, one live project, then one invite. Week two is when you decide whether anyone else needs a seat.
