Council data intelligence

Every council application is a business lead waiting to happen

UK councils publish hundreds of thousands of planning applications, wedding licenses, and business permits every year. CouncilPulse turns that public data into qualified leads, delivered straight to the businesses that need them.

The Problem

Businesses chase leads. Councils publish them for free. Nobody connects the two.

Every time a homeowner applies for planning permission, they'll need builders, architects, landscapers, and electricians. Every wedding venue license means caterers, florists, and photographers are about to be hired.

This data sits on hundreds of separate council portals. Different formats. Different update schedules. Impossible to monitor manually at scale.

The businesses who need these leads don't know they exist. The ones who do waste hours trawling council websites. CouncilPulse fixes that.

How it works

1

Aggregate

We pull data from council portals across London and the UK. Planning applications, licenses, permits, registrations.

2

Classify

Each application is categorized by type, location, value, and the services it will require. Noise becomes signal.

3

Deliver

Matched leads land in your inbox as weekly reports. Filtered by your area, your trade, your criteria.

Verticals

One data source. Leads for every trade.

Council data isn't just for builders. Every application type unlocks a different set of businesses.

Planning Applications

Construction & Trades

Builders, roofers, electricians, plumbers, landscapers, skip hire. Every approved extension is a pipeline of contracts.

Wedding Licenses

Wedding Services

Caterers, florists, photographers, DJs, event planners. New venue licenses mean new couples booking services.

Business Licensing

Professional Services

Accountants, solicitors, insurance brokers, commercial agents. New businesses need professional support from day one.

Development Permits

Property & Design

Architects, surveyors, interior designers, environmental consultants. Major developments need specialist expertise.

The leads already exist. They're just buried in council portals.

CouncilPulse surfaces them, matches them to the right businesses, and delivers them weekly. Public data, private advantage.
