For land developers, the job can often feel as though you’re trying to run through mud. Permissions take months, margins are tight, and every delay risks turning a promising scheme into a costly headache.
That’s why we’ve built LandIntelligence - the first platform to bring the entire pre-planning journey into one shared workspace, helping developers move faster, work smarter, and make decisions with confidence.
What is LandIntelligence?
LandIntelligence isn’t just another tool, it’s a whole ecosystem. It unifies LandTech’s suite of products - LandInsight, LandFund, LandInsight API, and Give My View - alongside a growing network of trusted partners including Hometrack, Atkins, Brickflow, AiDash, and RenKap.
The result? Developers now have a single platform to source sites, assess feasibility, secure funding, and collaborate with planners, consultants, communities, and funders - without juggling spreadsheets, emails, or multiple apps or web pages.
“Being able to find the right site is no longer enough. Developers need to be asking how their technology is making their whole process better. From site finding, all the way through to planning approval. To our customers, LandIntelligence is the operating system for their site development pipeline. It's the glue the binds together their processes and functions. Having the right data is no longer enough, it's what you do with it that counts."
- Harry Quartermain, Chartered Planner and Head of Research and Insight at LandTech
Why Now?
Let’s face it; planning is a mess. Recent UK data reveals:
- Planning approvals: In the first quarter of 2025, only 19% of major applications were decided within the statutory 13-week period, highlighting persistent delays.
- Infrastructure agreements: Developers are now waiting an average of 515 days (approximately 16 months) for Section 106 agreements to be finalised - a 20% increase over two years.
- Margins under pressure: With applications and approvals already falling, SME developers in particular “can’t afford to sit on stalled sites.”
LandIntelligence doesn’t shorten council queues (sorry), but it ensures developers reach them submission-ready - with viable, fundable schemes, fewer surprises, and less wasted effort before and between these choke points.
How LandIntelligence Helps Developers
We’ve mapped LandIntelligence around the developer journey - three phases, ten stages - but simplified it into one platform:
Phase 1: Site Sourcing
- Surface opportunities faster with layered data, ownership checks, and planning context.
- Stages: Site sourcing, land deals
Phase 2: Assessment
- Evaluate risk, financial feasibility, and funding options with Quick Insights, comparables, appraisals, scheme design, and site surveys.
- Stages: Land assessment, site appraisal, scheme design, site surveys, funding
Phase 3: Planning Submission
- Collaborate seamlessly with planners, consultants, communities, and funders using shared sites, live notes, and trusted partner data.
- Stages: Planning application, community engagement, reserved matters
Key Benefits:
- Time saved: qualify sites in hours, not weeks
- Confidence: make decisions backed by trusted data and partners
- Reduced risk: spot problems earlier, keep projects moving
- Collaboration: one workspace for every stakeholder, no more silos or rework
And yes, AI is embedded throughout - from instant planning summaries today, to a future where it could source, compare, and act across the journey on your behalf.
Partnerships That Matter
LandIntelligence integrates with industry leaders like Hometrack and Atkins, while also linking to AiDash, and RenKap. Developers can even access services and datasets directly in-app through the ecosystem portal, meaning everything you need is now in one place.
A New Standard in Development
LandIntelligence is the first platform to unify the entire pre-planning journey. From first look to finance-ready, developers can move faster, work smarter, and collaborate seamlessly with their teams and partners.
We’re not just helping developers manage land; we’re helping them unlock opportunities and deliver the infrastructure the UK urgently needs.
