Auto design for septic and land planning

Give us an address. Get a septic system.

We find the parcel, read the soil and elevation, apply your county's rules and design a system from real products in stock, with the estimate and permit sheets ready.

Pick your address from the list to begin. Free for one week.

Two ways to design, same result

Let landplan.io do the whole job, or take the wheel at any step. Both draw ordinary map features you can change by hand.

Auto design

One press, whole system

Give an address and the bedrooms. The assistant does the rest and explains every decision.

  1. Finds the parcel and creates the project
  2. Reads soil, elevation, wells, streams and setbacks
  3. Picks the best system and places house, tanks and field
  4. Checks the design, then makes the report PDF
Smart design

A guided workflow, you decide

Pick the system, then place the parts one at a time. Each step tells you what comes next and what is missing.

  1. Choose a system, or see the full options table
  2. For each part, Place it for me or Draw it myself
  3. Move parts to option A, B or C, or by hand
  4. Fix anything the check flags, then print

What makes landplan.io different

Every number is traced to the site, a rule and a real product

Pick any part of the design and follow its trail. Reviewers, customers and regulators can follow the same trail.

Questions we get asked

What does Auto design need from me?

An address, and optionally the number of bedrooms. It finds the parcel, reads the site, picks a system that fits, draws it to scale and checks it against the rules. You can adjust anything it draws.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It runs in the browser, and you can add it to your phone's home screen as an app.

Which states and counties are covered?

Parcel search covers our statewide databases, and septic rules come from state and county configurations. The docs list what is covered today.

Can I give my own prices for materials and labor?

Yes. Estimates use our price database, and you can enter custom prices for any item.

Can a regulator or customer review my plan?

Yes. Share a project link and reviewers can open the map and leave comments.
