Terms of use
Short and plain. These terms apply to the early version.
What the service is
WhatSignFits is an early version of a lookup that shows sign rules from official city documents for a short list of cities. It is free to use during the test. No payment is taken.
Not legal advice
Results are information, not legal or professional advice. The city decides whether a sign is allowed and has the final say. Planned developments, master sign plans and special sign districts can override the general sign code, and codes change.
How results are made
Rules are extracted from official documents by AI and checked automatically; they are not reviewed by a person (details). Results may be incomplete, out of date or wrong. Check the linked section, and confirm with the city, before you rely on a result, file a permit or build a sign.
No warranty
The service is provided "as is", without any warranty. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss arising from using it, including rejected permits, fines, or the cost of changing a sign.
Fair use
Don't overload the service with automated requests or try to copy the rule database in bulk.
Changes
These terms may change as the service develops. The version on this page applies.
