A sharper way to work a regional patch
Less trawling
Skip the register admin and get to the useful signals.
More context
Know what the project is before you pick up the phone.
From register to route plan
A planning register is only the beginning.
The advantage is not seeing more applications. It is seeing the right ones early enough, with a sensible reason to call.
Build your first lead packWe scan the public registers
The service checks the planning sources across Dorset and Hampshire on a consistent rhythm, so the work does not depend on someone remembering to look.
We sort signal from noise
Trade matching, project type, timing and other useful clues become a priority score. You see the likely jobs first, not an unfiltered spreadsheet.
You get a route-ready pack
Each lead comes with the source reference, proposal detail and a recommended angle. Review, save, export and take the next action.
Designed for the van, not the boardroom
Useful at 7am. Useful on the road.
Open a short list, understand the project, decide if it is yours. The Scanner is deliberately practical: less dashboard theatre, more next calls.
Built around contractor decisions
Trade focus
Roofing, building, or both. Keep the list relevant to the work you actually take on.
Priority bands
A, B and C bands make it obvious what deserves a call now and what can wait.
Suggested angles
See the project clue that gives your first message a reason to exist.
Downloadable packs
Keep a clear record for your desk, your team or the next morning's run sheet.
Local by design
Your patch is the product.
We start where local knowledge matters: the places contractors in the region already drive between. More useful coverage will follow; the standard stays the same.

Coverage is always sourced from lawful public planning registers.
