Nouveautés

Design et ergonomie

• Lists, folders and buy boxes now share one name: lists.
• Every saved property now has the same page, and "Start project" is a step you take on it.

Nouveau

• Share any list, including one you built by hand.

Autre

• The MCP and plugin pages now start with install. Pick your assistant and connect from the first screen.

Forfaits et facturation

• Search every city Bucky covers on every plan, Free included.

Nouveau

• Pricing now shows four plans. Every plan searches every city, and plans differ in how many lists you keep.

Lieux et données

• Find Canadian places by their rental market. Filter municipalities by rent growth, vacancy, new-build rent premium and rental supply pipeline, then add the ones that fit your strategy.

Assist, MCP et agents

• Ask Bucky to review a saved search. It suggests which results aren't a fit and why, and you confirm with one tap.

Projets

• Rental unit types in your development program can start from CMHC market rents for the project's municipality, adjusted for newer buildings and clearly sourced.

Design et ergonomie

• Canadian places now show CMHC rental market data (rents by bedroom, purpose-built vacancy) and the local housing supply pipeline (starts and units under construction) right on the place profile.
• Flag any saved-search result as "not a fit" and say why. It disappears from that search and its alerts, and Bucky learns from the reason.
• Saved searches now learn from your "not a fit" flags. Repeated reasons become a filter you can see and undo.

Nouveau

• Buy box ideas now take the local rental market into account, so purpose-built rental ideas rise where vacancy is tight and little new rental supply is coming.

Améliorations

• Developer API errors are now consistent. Every `/api/v1` error carries `code`, `category`, `status`, `retryable`, `requestId` and `supportId`. On a 402, `error` is now a readable sentence and `code` names the reason: `ENTITLEMENT_REQUIRED`, `METER_LIMIT_REACHED`, `INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE` or `KEY_SPEND_CAP_REACHED`. Before, `error` sometimes held a token such as `insufficient_balance`. A developer API key on a route that does not take keys now always gets `403 CREDENTIAL_UNSUPPORTED`, where it used to get a 401 or `403 FORBIDDEN`. Billing outages return `503 BILLING_UNAVAILABLE`. Match on `code`.

• MCP inventory cards let you sign in inside the card and then update in place.

Projets

• On Canadian sites, lot facts no longer talk about US designations or US elevation data.

Corrections

• District of North Vancouver residential zones now show their zoning rules.

Lieux et données

• Québec City properties now show their individual lots.
• Where Bucky has no city overlay maps on file, such as Chicago, site analysis now says so instead of reporting that no zoning overlays were flagged.
• The coverage map lists every region Bucky covers, and now appears on the request-a-city and book-a-demo pages.
• Laval properties now show their individual lots.
• Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension in Montréal now has lots and borough zoning, so you can screen it for subdivision potential.

Carte

• New screen: keep land-title parcels only and exclude strata, condo and co-op buildings that cannot be assembled.
• New screen: find underbuilt lots and teardowns by building-to-land value and year built. Available in Vancouver, Minneapolis, Brooklyn, Detroit, Camrose and New Braunfels.
• New screen: find gas stations, auto-service sites and car lots. Each one carries a contamination-risk flag.
• New screen: find vacant lots and surface parking, the sites with no demolition and no tenants.
• New screen: find places of worship, starting in Vancouver, Burnaby and North Vancouver.
• Buy boxes can screen for lots that could be subdivided under zone minimums.
• When two parcels share one street address, buy-box matches show each lot number, so they no longer look like duplicates.

Assist, MCP et agents

• The MCP `cityInventory` tool finds a city by name, and lists the candidates when a name is ambiguous, instead of returning an internal error.
• Assist remembers your standing preferences (markets, mandate, timeline and constraints) and no longer saves one-off lot details as memories.
• Feasibility snapshots over MCP now name the bylaw section behind each fact.
• The Bucky CLI now covers project members and invites, tasks, memory, insights, site photos, permit checks, folders and favourites, account settings and billing.
• The MCP `getProjectContext` tool can include a project’s tasks, members, insights, capital and site photos.
• Two new MCP tools: screenLots runs a buy box from your AI assistant, and getBylawSection returns the bylaw text behind an answer.
• MCP App cards leave the waiting state when the host cancels the opening tool call or returns `isError`, and inventory panels no longer look like they are still loading after a result arrives.
• Codex can connect to the Bucky MCP server. Sign-in no longer fails with a redirect error.
• The Bucky connector for Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP clients is now free on every plan.

Mac

• The Mac app now updates itself automatically.
• The Mac app’s project sidebar shows each project’s address instead of “No location”.

Projets

• Projects open in a new workspace. The overview reads as cited facts with their sources, Assist stays open beside it, and you can drag any fact into Assist to ask about it.
• Site analysis shows parking requirements wherever the bylaw is on file, starting with Chicago. Previously only Burnaby and North Vancouver had them.
• Chicago residential lots now show front, side and rear setbacks worked out from each lot's own width and depth, with the ordinance rule quoted. Where the front yard depends on neighbouring homes, Bucky says so instead of guessing.
• Projects show a Street View photo of the site.
• Copy a project as a ready-made prompt for your AI agent, from the project's top bar.

Explorer

• Explore is redesigned. The map and Assist now sit side by side: search an address, see the parcel framed on satellite, switch map layers, and ask Assist about it without leaving the page.
• Saved searches can require a minimum number of homes allowed on the lot: 2+, 4+, 8+ or 16+.
• Explore works in your phone's browser, with search, layers and Assist in sheets that fit the screen.
• Describe the sites you want in a sentence and Bucky turns it into a saved search. My Searches shows how many lots match each search.

Premiers pas

• Clearer onboarding copy for new accounts.
• A wrong password now tells you the email or password is incorrect, instead of showing a generic error.
• Signing in with Google no longer stops at a blank popup.
• New accounts start in two steps: pick a place and name the project. Assist then answers your first question about it.
• During onboarding you can search for your city by name, including cities Bucky does not cover yet.
