For architects, planners & professionals

Help your clients decide on a site
before they spend serious money.

We are the fast early decision layer behind your brand. Before your client commits serious money, a Site Appraisal tells them whether the site is worth pursuing, which specialists to instruct, what to ask, and what not to spend on yet. Source-traced and delivered in 48 hours, passed through 200+ automated quality checks before issue, with a named or chartered sign-off available as an optional add-on. A Tier 1 desktop study built to the RICS AI standard before it was mandatory; it complements your work, it does not replace it.

How it works for your practice

That's the starting point. Just the address, development type, and scale.

2

Tell us the development

Type, unit count, use class. We handle the rest.

3

Receive your brief

A source-traced desktop pack in 48 hours, run through 200+ automated quality checks before issue. Named or chartered sign-off is available as an optional add-on.

4

Brief your specialists

The pack sets out which specialists to instruct and what to ask them, so every appointment starts sharp.

Why practices choose Site Intelligence

Decide in days, not months

A 48-hour desktop brief gives you the early read before anyone is appointed. You reach the go or no-go decision, and the right specialist instructions, weeks sooner.

Avoid the wrong spend

A fast early brief stops your client commissioning the wrong £800-£5,000 specialist report. Industry estimates suggest a large share of early-stage projects are abandoned, often after significant sunk cost.

Accountable quality

Every report passes 200+ automated quality checks before issue, with every number traced to source. For extra assurance, a named or chartered sign-off is available as an optional add-on. Built to the RICS responsible-AI standard before it became mandatory.

Scale your early-stage work

A fixed-price desktop brief on every prospective site lets you advise more clients earlier, and walk into each specialist appointment with a sharper, better-targeted scope.

Why professionals trust the analysis

A fast decision only counts if you can defend it. Here is why chartered planners, architects, and developers build their early go or no-go call on our intelligence, then hand it to their specialists.
