No credit card, no call · Free forever tier · 380+ UK councils · Updated daily
Most material suppliers only meet a project at tender or main-contractor shortlist, by which point the material category is already specified into the drawings. SiteLens alerts you the day the application appears on the planning register, while the spec is still open. Daily alerts on every plan, free included.
Pick the residential, commercial or industrial work that actually needs your product. Set a minimum project size, a postcode radius or a council group. Skip the conservatories and see only the schemes worth quoting.
From volume products like bricks, insulation and roofing systems through to specialist categories such as Crittall and steel-frame glazing, sash and timber windows, or conservation-area and listed-building work. Set keyword alerts on the niche your range serves and the matching applications land in your inbox.
Every application in your region, on one map. Filter by category, value band and proximity, or just type what you want in plain English and SiteLens builds the filter for you.
Works tags name the trades every scheme implies, with category, estimated value and a plain-English project brief. Know what it’s worth before you open it.
Set your criteria once. New matching applications arrive in your inbox each morning, each with its project brief and why it matched.
Each scheme shows the developer, agent and main contractor behind it, with their matched Companies House record. Pro adds the contact details published by the council or firm, plus nearby public contracts and awards, so you know who to approach and when.
The free forever tier gives you unlimited search and application views across 380+ councils and a saved daily alert, so you can see whether the data works for your trade before you pay a penny. Pro is £29/mo billed annually and adds the applicant and agent names, the agent’s or firm’s contact details where published, Companies House on every scheme, competitor watch, analytics and property history. Running a few estimators? Team adds up to 5 users, 20 alerts and hourly updates.
