Classified, mapped and alerted daily.
No credit card, no call · Free forever tier · 380+ UK councils · Updated daily
Larger solar arrays, ground-mount sites, battery storage and many heat-pump and EV installs need planning or prior approval. SiteLens alerts you the day they land so you can reach the owner or developer first.
Set keyword alerts (solar, photovoltaic, heat pump, battery, EV, charging) and a region so the daily feed shows only the schemes that match what you install.
New residential and commercial schemes increasingly specify renewables to meet policy. Track major and commercial applications to reach the developer while the energy strategy is still open.
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 on the same patch? Team puts them on one shared pipeline for up to 5 users, so 2 of them never chase the same site.
