Fast screening before deeper work

Choose a platform if you want…

DIFFERENTIATION

What makes SiteSift different?

Three ways SiteSift stands out from other tools

Output-first, not platform-first

Most tools are great at exploration. SiteSift is great at decision-ready output: one consistent pack you can share, store, and compare.

Citations-first

If a constraint is mentioned, it's linked back to the source — and AI commentary is clearly separate. No blended 'AI says' confusion.

Built for early-stage screening

This is the moment when you need speed and consistency — before you spend time on deeper feasibility.
