Data, data, data. We love it, we need it - and we also kind of hate it sometimes, right? Yes, data is power but believe it or not, there is such a thing as too much data. If you’re dealing with too much, not only can it slow you down, but it can also lead to a lot of confusion - and probably some missed opportunities, too.
As the way we source sites has evolved (thank you PropTech!), so too has the volume of information developers have to contend with. From ownership and planning history to flooding, topography and local market data, today’s developers are now expected to be data pros on top of everything else. It may not be rocket science, but it is property development - and it’s not easy.
While more data should be helpful, it can actually sometimes have the opposite effect. When you’re juggling numerous tabs, countless layers or data overlays, and hours of digging, what should be a straightforward early-stage assessment quickly becomes an overwhelming task.
At LandTech, we know the challenges you face every day. From filtering through layers of planning applications and local policy to making sense of unclear ownership or constraints, these obstacles often delay decision-making and make an already time-consuming task so much more complex.
That’s the challenge we set out to solve.
Cutting through the noise with Quick Insights
Enter Quick Insights. Our newest feature, designed to deliver you the most powerful data, instantly.
We know that when it comes to conducting high-level site assessments, you often need to get a quick and full understanding of a site’s physical constraints, planning risk, and local market conditions all at once. Whether it’s navigating complex planning policies, ensuring site data is accurate, or checking for possible issues like flooding or steep slopes, the process can feel fragmented and inefficient.
Quick Insights solves this by giving you all the critical data you need in one place.
So instead of jumping between layers, you’ll now get an at-a-glance overview of everything from plot size and planning applications to site constraints, flooding risk and even things like planning sentiment and Grey Belt favourability. In fact, you’ll get access to a full suite of 15+ insights (and growing) for each and every site.
Designed for Decision-Making
Quick Insights was built around one question: what do you actually need to know to make a confident go/no-go decision on a site?
We know all about your struggles with data accuracy, especially when it comes to planning history, ownership verification or local market insights. Quick Insights takes the guesswork out of the equation, providing you with reliable, accurate information from trusted sources. No more flipping between multiple tools to verify that the data you’ve been given is correct.
Plus, we know that in property development one size never fits all. That’s why we designed Quick Insights to be fully customisable. You can choose what data insights you see and the order in which you see them so you can tailor it to suit your workflow and your project needs.
Whether you’re making a go/no-go decision on a single site, or comparing the potential of a whole list of sites, Quick Insights brings the right data to the surface, instantly.
An intelligent way forward
We may have called it Quick Insights, but this launch is about a lot more than just speed. It’s about reducing friction and making the whole LandTech experience smarter, more intuitive, and more personalised to you.
Quick Insights lays the foundation for a future where you don’t just get more data, but better, more intelligent insights that help you:
- Make faster, confident decisions
- Focus your time on the most promising sites
- Spot high-potential opportunities faster
No longer will you need to feel bogged down by irrelevant or unverified data. Quick Insights will change the way you assess potential sites and allow you to make informed decisions based on the most accurate, up-to-date and relevant insights available.
Narrow down what’s important, without wasting time on the noise: that’s the jist of it. With Quick Insights you’ll always be one step ahead, seeing the bigger picture faster and more confidently than the competition.
At the end of the day, you shouldn’t need to wade through piles of data to get the insight - that’s our job.
