Permit Classifier

BERT-powered permit classification for BLDUP.

BERT / FastAPI / Redis / PostgreSQL

Overview

A machine learning microservice for organizing construction permits across Boston, Austin, and San Francisco. My work covered training and deployment of the classification service.

Build notes

  • Train a BERT model using a corpus of more than three million permits.
  • Expose predictions through a FastAPI microservice.
  • Use Redis caching alongside the service to support repeated requests.

Project status

Work completed at BLDUP in 2021. My existing portfolio reports approximately 90% classification accuracy; the linked team repository provides the project context.
