One JSON shape across every council. Idox, Civica, Northgate, Swift, Ocella, NI Portal, Acolnet — same fields, same types, the portal-specific quirks normalised away.
Every council exposes its scrape history: when it last ran, what it found, what errored. Click into any council and see the receipts.
Radius around any postcode, polygon containment for ward and parish queries, full-text across address, description, and reference. PostGIS-native, not bolted on.
Approval rates, decision speed and trends back to 1979 for every UK authority — official MHCLG figures — plus live application volumes, type-mix and the most-active agents from our own feed. On paid plans.
Signed callbacks the moment an application appears or its status changes. Retries, replay for missed events, filter by council, postcode prefix, or saved query.
360+ councils today, including the hard ones: shared Idox tenants like Adur+Worthing routed via PostGIS point-in-polygon, NI Planning Portal, National Park Authorities, custom DEF installs.
OpenAPI 3 docs, consistent pagination, meaningful error messages. Free tier to prototype, paid plans that scale linearly with usage. No sales calls.
