Planning intelligence for professionals
One system for the professional planner: appraise sites on the ground, keep your casework in view, research a decade of appeal decisions, and stay current on the plans and policy behind your advice.
Built by Pierre Dowsett MRTPI, Chartered Town Planner
Used daily in live casework.
Launching autumn 2026. Early access, no payment card, no commitment. Waiting-list members get 10% off their first year on an annual subscription.
What it does
Four tools, one record of your work
The jobs of an ordinary working week: the site visit, the casework behind it, the appeal research and the plan it all sits against. One site record flows through all four.
Assess
Site Appraisals
Walk a site, draw the red line, and constraints such as flood risk, heritage and landscape designations assemble around the boundary: key constraint information within seconds, not hours. Add the planning history and supporting maps, and read the appeals decided within the vicinity of your site.

LPA Casework
Every application, pre-app, appeal and condition on one board, with the deadlines that bite in view. Drop in a registration letter, a decision notice or an email and the AI extracts the details and updates the casework, checked by you before it saves. A decision notice also reads its conditions into a client-facing schedule, noting which are pre-commencement and which need discharging.

Appeals Intelligence & Casework
Monitor your own appeals as they run, and research the record around them: search for similar appeals, read the decision letter behind each, see the authority’s allowed rate for that development type, and follow the key case law through the live decisions applying it. New decisions arrive within days of publication.

Policy & Plans
National policy and the plan position for every authority you work in: the new NPPF searchable and citable, the adopted plan, the emerging review and the SPDs, with the housing land supply position as accepted at appeal. The policy context is already open when the appraisal starts.

A decade of appeal decisions, mapped across England, one click straight to the Inspector's decision letter
Over 260,000 decisions since 2016, direct from the Planning Inspectorate, with the decision letter behind each wherever PINS published one. Search every word of the letters, read any authority's record, see what was decided around any site.
- Every authority’s record: allowed rates by development type and procedure
- Comparable decisions with the letter one tap away
- Costs decisions read separately: who applied, who paid, and why
- AI reads the letters of the last five years: main issues, reasoning, weight and housing land supply
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
Every decision is searchable, mapped or not. A pin appears only where the Inspectorate's own record carries a usable location: we plot what can be placed honestly rather than guessing.
