Frequently Asked Planning Questions
Where does your data come from?
Direct from UK council planning portals and the official PlanIt aggregator. We don't make anything up: every application links back to the council's own record.
How fresh is the data?
We refresh our data every few hours, adding new applications and decision changes throughout the day.
Is Planning Signal free?
Yes. Searching, viewing applications, and basic alerts are free forever. Research adds wider search, advanced filters and CSV export so you can research planning yourself. Leads adds nationwide keyword lead alerts delivered as councils publish: done-for-you lead generation. Conditions adds condition alerts for specialist consultants.
Can I object to a planning application through Planning Signal?
Objections still need to be filed with the council, but we link you directly to the right page on their portal, and tell you exactly when the consultation window closes.
Do you cover Scotland and Wales?
Yes. Coverage is strongest in England, with growing data across Scotland and Wales as we onboard more council portals.
Will you share my email or postcode?
Never. We don't sell your data, and we only use your postcode to show you what's relevant nearby.
