ABOUT MITCHELL BARKER

I’ve always been fascinated by how cities grow and evolve. With parents in public service and real estate development, I saw early on how government and industry shape communities - and how technology can help bridge the two. That perspective drives what I do today. Across North America, I’ve partnered with state and local governments and have seen firsthand how smarter permitting processes, policies and software unlock real impact for communities. At Clariti, I help public sector leaders navigate change with confidence - turning complex modernization goals into measurable results. Previously, I helped lead the North American expansion of AI plan review technology, helping cities reimagine how development applications are reviewed and approved. My goal is simple: to be the trusted advisor for public servants exploring technology that makes approvals faster, fairer, transparent and more sustainable. I hope to create lasting change in the communities they serve and call home. My unique areas of focus: • AI and automation in permitting • Digital transformation in government • Housing innovation and smart cities • Public sector efficiency and citizen experience • Macro economic real estate trends If your community is exploring or needs new permitting technology, I’d love to connect and share what’s working.
