How it works

From site address to planning clarity in four steps.

01

Run the free check

Enter your address and project type. We instantly check 5 planning constraint datasets — conservation area, listed building, flood risk, Article 4, and TPO — free, no account needed.

02

Sign in to view your results

Sign in with Google in one click. Your planning verdict, executive summary and key flags are saved to your dashboard automatically.

03

Commission your feasibility

Choose your depth. Lite gives you a high-level site filter in minutes. Standard delivers the full pre-application picture — 22 sections, comparable decisions, risk register and a step-by-step route to approval. From £99.

04

Design with confidence

Move forward knowing your route, your risk, and your realistic prospects. Homeowners brief their architect. Architects brief their clients. No surprises.

What our users say

Trusted by homeowners,
architects and consultants.

★★★★★

"We used PlanReady before briefing our architect. The report flagged a 45-degree rule issue with our planned rear extension — we redesigned around it before a single drawing was produced. Saved us weeks of wasted fees."

★★★★★

"I use it at the start of every pre-design client conversation. It gives both of us a shared, grounded understanding of what's achievable before the brief is set. That clarity is worth more than the report price."

James T.

★★★★★

"The comparable decisions analysis alone justifies the cost. It's the kind of research that used to take half a day to compile. Now I have it before the client call, and it makes the conversation far sharper."

Why PlanReady

A fraction of the cost.
Before design begins.

A planning consultant charges £1,500–£3,000 for early-stage feasibility advice — and that's after you've already committed to design. PlanReady gives you the same intelligence in minutes, before a brief is set.

Depth vs free tools

Free planning tools tell you if a constraint exists. PlanReady tells you what it means for your specific project, your application route, and your realistic prospects of approval.

Speed vs consultants

An early-stage planning consultant charges £1,500 or more — and needs weeks, a brief, and existing drawings. PlanReady delivers the same quality of pre-application thinking in minutes, before design begins.

Decision quality

The report changes what you do next — which architect you brief, whether you submit PD or full planning, whether the scheme is viable at all. That decision quality is worth considerably more than £149.
