How you'd use it
Most appeals run on the evidence supplied within the original case. Front-load your planning statement and develop stronger arguments you can rely on:
EARLY
Appraise against the record.
See how similar projects you're working on have fared at local and national level. Have similar sites consistently gone to appeal? Is a certain policy interpreted favourably at appeal compared to a local level or likely to provide a challenge? Search the latest statistics and provide informed advice at an early stage.
LOOK AT THE RIGHT INFORMATION
Quality information, fast.
Develop a confident planning approach and consider all data available to you. Our tool allows you to search and filter for very specific cases. Find individual policy interpretation surfaced from inspector reasoning. Our bespoke reporting services also provide powerful insight from over 1.1 million datapoints sourced directly from the planning inspectorate.
VERIFY EACH POINT
Transparent, traceable information.
All findings are clearly identified and all directly verifiable from the original document. Find the original corresponding planning application and identify key inspector reasoning point by point to identify specific reasoning. Our tools can help you develop a defensible planning position that aligns with the planning inspectorate.
Between cases, collections keep research organised by client, and alerts bring new relevant decisions to you.
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.
Evidence based, transparent information.
Our tools help you find key information that no manual search would surface. Whether you need datasets, statistics on policy performance at appeal or simply need to find strong cases - we can help you build stronger and more confident planning approaches. All sources are easy to cite and can be checked against the original documentation, no reliance on AI interpretation, no hidden methodology.
Appeal Intelligence
Answers for the client call.
One case tells you what happened once. Looking at data drawn from a national scale and definitive interpretations from the planning inspectorate tells you more. Manage client risk and provide better advice early in your project.
What are the chances?
Quickly understand how site constraints, planning approaches or project types have been consistently viewed at appeal. Inform the direction of a project or planning advice at an early stage. Our tools can help identify allow rate by local authority, case type or procedure, not just the national average. Our insights can break down success rates for each local or national policy and our bespoke search filters can help find the right cases to reference.
National data set, specific insights.
Our data is taken directly from PINS. When considering your planning approach or advice - are you looking at all the data available to you? Follow live cases to keep up to date with current inspector reasoning, find key planning arguments quickly. We offer bespoke reporting to analyse specific questions and provide you with more risk management and confidence to inform your team.
Built on 2.9M points of inspector reasoning across 219,595 appeal decisions. Four UK jurisdictions; the intelligence layer covers England.

Included with your plan

Search the record, track live appeals, share results and check policy performance yourself. Team plans with named seats included, MFA, clear invoicing and purchase order information.
Bespoke analysis
A read on your record.
We can analyse data directly obtained from the Planning Inspectorate. We can provide anything from a simple group of similar case references to a statistical analysis of specific local or national policy interpretation (tailored to your area or a site). Other use cases include understanding if the inspector has consistently awarded costs in a particular case type or procedure or understanding the 'live' performance of your local authority. We can also provide monthly, or quarterly findings - ahead of PINS. You set the questions, we help give you better answers.
