HUMAN IN THE LOOP
Automation finds more.
Humans make it reliable.
Planning information is public, but it is fragmented, inconsistent and often noisy. BuildSignal uses automation to collect and organise it, then a human checks the results before anything is surfaced as a lead.
✓Manual verificationAccuracy, project relevance and key details are checked before delivery.
✓Context & relevanceWe look beyond keywords to judge whether a project is useful for the target trade or area.
✓Quality over quantityThe goal is not more alerts. It is fewer false positives and better opportunities.
HOW IT WORKS
From scattered planning data to a usable signal.
BuildSignal is deliberately simple: gather, verify, deliver.
Review by a human
Applications are checked for scope, relevance, project type, location and useful contact or document information.
Deliver useful leads
Relevant opportunities can then be sent as a concise shortlist instead of a raw stream of planning applications.
CURRENT COVERAGE
Starting with Leicestershire.
BuildSignal currently focuses on the nine main local planning sources covering Leicester and Leicestershire.

WHY BUILDSIGNAL
Public data is easy to access. Useful intelligence is not.
A contractor can check each council portal manually, search recent applications, open documents, judge scope and decide whether a project is worth pursuing. That works — but it takes time.
BuildSignal is built around removing that repetitive work while keeping a human review step in the process.
