How small developers use SiteLens

Spot land at the point of validation

Every residential application across the UK is on the register within days of submission. Filter by category, scale and region to find parcels, change-of-use opportunities and unlocked sites before they show up in the agency pipeline.

Benchmark approval rates by council

Some councils approve 90% of residential applications, some approve 50%. On Pro, council analytics show historical approval rates, decision times and category breakdowns, so you can target the councils where schemes like yours have the best track record.

Watch what your competitors are building

Follow any developer across 380+ councils. See their active portfolio, the councils where they work most, their approval rate and their typical scheme size. On Pro, add competitor watch to get an alert whenever they file something new.

What you get from day one

Map-first search

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.

Classified for your trade

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.

Daily email alerts

Set your criteria once. New matching applications arrive in your inbox each morning, each with its project brief and why it matched.

Who to contact

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.
