Built for Highland trades
From one-van joiners to firms with a site team, the work starts with a planning application. We make sure you hear about it first.
Everything you need to win the job
Scored 1 to 5
Size, stage and value rolled into one number, so the best jobs are at the top.
Ready to start
Approvals get their own section. Planning granted means someone is about to need a trade.
Know the house
Energy rating, age, heating, walls and roof for the building, from its energy certificate, so you can quote with more than a guess.
Early alerts
Turn them on and hear the day the council list lands, not just on Monday.
Map and radius
See jobs on a map and only hear about work within the distance you'll drive.
Keyword alerts
Dormers, heat pumps, timber frame: add your own words and those jobs are flagged.
Job tracker
Mark leads contacted, quoted, won or lost, and see what the service has made you.
Team logins
Pro includes 3 logins, sharing one lead list and job tracker.
Export
CSV and JSON on Highland and Pro, for your own CRM or spreadsheets.
No letters to homeowners
We don't post junk mail to people who've just applied. You get the lead; how you approach it is up to you.

Questions
Where do the leads come from?
The planning lists Highland Council publishes every week: new applications and decisions. They're public records; we do the reading, sorting and scoring.
Which areas do you cover?
Highland Council, all 21 wards. More Scottish councils are being added. Tell us yours and we'll prioritise it.
What is a founding place?
One of the first 250 subscriptions. 3 months free, then 50% off for as long as you stay subscribed, on any plan, monthly or yearly.
Why do you need my card?
So your leads keep coming when the free period ends. Nothing is taken until then, and you can cancel in two clicks before it ends.
Do I get a VAT invoice?
Yes, with your VAT number on it if you add one. Prices are shown before VAT.
Can my team use it?
Pro includes 3 logins. Add your colleagues' emails in Settings and they sign in with their own.
Do you contact homeowners?
No, never. We don't publish names and we don't post letters to people's homes.
Can I cancel?
Any time, from your settings. You keep access to the end of the period you've paid for.
