Spot SME growth opportunities like never before.
Putting the small players at the same table as the giants.
Planning decisions change before the area does. We surface the earliest signals of residential growth and more, to let small business owners know the best places to set up their next store — tailored to their business.
The kind of planning intelligence usually locked behind consultants and private relationships — now available to independent investors and family-run property companies.

Why planning data moves first
Residential value doesn't re-rate when housing is built — it re-rates when councils stop pushing back on development.
Approval rates, decision speeds, and the scale of residential projects change years before new homes exist or prices react. These signals are fragmented, hard to track, and typically only visible to large developers.
What the platform does
Detect council regime shifts
Identify areas where approval behaviour signals a structural change in planning resistance.
Measure residential build momentum
Track where small, medium, and large residential approvals are accelerating over time.
Validate demand absorption
Use income resilience as a proxy for whether new supply can be absorbed without price compression.
From signal to action
Instead of static reports, the platform ranks the most promising postcodes in real time and surfaces live property listings — allowing users to act before growth becomes obvious.
