For architects
Check before you submit.
The Planning Inspectorate changed the rules: for most appeals, the case is what was in the application. And a resubmission now means the fee again. A quick check before you submit saves an awkward conversation later.
From £29/month. No sales call, no credit card.

Illustrative example
How you'd use it
What goes in first has to hold. Three places to check:
Before you submit
Know the ground first.
See how schemes like yours have fared, and which policies decided them. Search sites that match yours: Green Belt to flood zone.
At design stage
Design to the policies that decide.
Check which policies carry weight at this authority and how inspectors have read them, in their words. Shape the scheme before the objection exists.
When the refusal lands
Advise what's next.
Check how similar refusals have fared before the client asks. If it goes to appeal, hand over research, not a cold start.
Research by project: collections keep what you find, and alerts flag new decisions on sites like yours.
What you get, and what you don't.
We're not planning consultants. We don't write your statement, weigh your case, or give advice. We put the evidence in front of you: the cases, the inspector's reasoning, and patterns across the whole dataset that no manual search would surface. You draw the conclusions. The report is yours.
Appeal Intelligence
What decides it here.
One case tells you what happened. The whole record tells you what holds. From 31 October 2026, householder and minor residential applications are decided by officers, against policy.
The authority's record.
Allow rate and timescales by case type, with the England average alongside.
Which policies decide.
How NPPF paragraphs fare nationally, and how this authority's local plan policies hold up when tested.
