Tell us the work you chase and see it on one map.
Pick your trade or role and SiteLens builds a search tuned to it, sorted by best fit. Results sit on a live map with their status and stage, and you can filter by value band.
- Six starting points, from material supplier to land scout, each a tuned filter recipe
- Smart search turns a plain-English request into filters, on every plan
- Postcode and radius search, with a shareable URL for every filter combination
- Six constraint layers and a hot-zones heatmap drawn on the map
- Start a daily alert from the same screen, with a weekly match estimate
Know what a scheme is and which trades it needs, then filter by value.
Works tags, building type, lifecycle stage and a three-sentence brief tell you what a scheme is and which trades it needs, before you open the documents.
- 8 categories and 120+ subcategories for precise filtering
- 22 works tags, from groundworks to renewables, so a roofer sees roofing jobs
- Lifecycle stage, from outline to discharge of conditions, to catch schemes about to build
- Value bands from under £10K to £20M+, each naming how it was derived
- Filters for major schemes and unit count, plus use class and new-build where stated
The figures the application documents state, each marked with its source.
On major schemes from the most widely used council portals, SiteLens reads the application form and the agent’s statements and lifts the figures they state onto the record.
- Unit count, tenure split, floorspace, site area and parking, from the application form
- The named project team: architect, structural engineer, M&E consultant and main contractor
- A document inventory, where each report signals a specialist already engaged
- Biodiversity net gain allocations from the national BNG register
- Badged as document-verified, with a link to the council’s documents list
Flood, heritage and green belt risk, before the site visit.
Every mapped application is checked against the national designation datasets on planning.data.gov.uk. Energy certificates, building-control starts and Land Registry sales at and around the address complete the picture.
- 24 constraint flags with the named designation: flood zones, conservation areas, green belt, SSSIs
- Grey belt flagged where brownfield land sits inside the green belt
- EPC and retrofit-gap filters, plus EPC alerts, that match homes on their own certificate
- Building-control starts at the site postcode
- Planning history at the same address, plus Land Registry sale prices (Pro)
