Our mission: To provide instant, reliable access to UK planning data so development finance lenders can make faster, more informed decisions.
The Problem We Solve
UK planning data is fragmented across 400+ local authority portals, each with different formats, search interfaces, and data structures. For development finance lenders, this means:
- Hours spent manually checking multiple council websites
- Inconsistent data formats making comparison difficult
- No reliable way to monitor portfolio sites for changes
- Manual report generation for credit committees

- One unified API covering all UK councils
- Consistent data format regardless of source
