Get found. Get connected. Get hired.

  1. Get found

    Homeowners planning a future project find their architect here, before they have appointed anyone or applied. Your profile shows your planning track record, built automatically from the applications you have submitted.

  2. Get connected

    Contractors and consultants are listed alongside you. Find a builder to recommend once a scheme is approved, or the ecologist, tree surveyor or drainage engineer a condition calls for, and be easy for them to find in return.

  3. Get hired

    Enquiries from your profile come straight to your inbox. Free: no commission, no charge per enquiry, no subscription needed to be listed.

What your profile does for you

  • A track record you did not have to write

    Planning applications name the agent who submitted them. We link those applications to your practice, so your profile lists your schemes, your approval rate and the councils you work in. Something linked that is not yours? Unlink it from your account. Something missing? Tell us.

  • Approval rates, in context

    Every council page on Planning Signal shows that council's own approval rate, so a homeowner can see how your record compares with the local picture.

  • Show your work

    Describe your practice and where you work, list your accreditations and project types, and showcase up to 10 projects with photos. All free.

  • Research, when you want it

    The Research plan adds wider search, advanced filters and CSV export, for checking precedents and what has been approved nearby before you draw. Optional, and never needed to be listed.

Research is optional. See what it includes.

Common questions

Does it cost anything to add my practice?

No. Adding your practice, keeping it up to date and receiving enquiries are all free, with no commission and no charge per enquiry. The Research plan, for wider search and export, is an optional extra.

How quickly does my listing go live?

Straight away, if we can confirm it is yours: your account's email address is at your website's domain (for example you@yourfirm.co.uk for yourfirm.co.uk), or the Companies House number you give belongs to an active company with the same name. Otherwise a person checks it first, and we email you as soon as it is live.

Who can see my details?

Your listing is public, so anyone can see your practice's name and area, and the contact details you choose to add, such as your website and phone number. The email address you sign in with is never shown: enquiries are sent to it, and you reply from your account.

Can I change my listing later?

Yes, any time, from your account, and it is all free: your description, contact details, what you do and where you work, plus project photos for architects and builders.

What if my practice is already listed?

Then claim it instead of adding a new one. When you enter your name and postcode we search all three directories first, and you select "This is us, claim it" on the right one. Claiming keeps everything already on the listing, including its planning history.

Where does my planning track record come from?

From public planning applications that name your practice as the agent. We match the agent named on each application to your practice and link it to your profile. You can unlink any application that is not yours from your account.
