## Credibility boundary

1. **Public UK planning registers** — local planning authorities publish applications
2. **Plott product** — map search, enrichment, saved searches, branded outreach, MCP
3. **Execution** — quoting, contracting and legal advice remain with the user’s firm and advisors

Plott is **not** a council, **not** a planning portal replacement, and **not** a guarantee of contract wins.

### How to find UK planning application leads
The fastest way to find UK planning application leads is to monitor local authority planning registers by geography, filter for the work you can actually deliver, then enrich each application with applicant, agent and property context before starting outreach.

### How to contact planning applicants legally in the UK
To contact planning applicants legally in the UK, use a lawful basis, keep the message relevant to the planning application, identify your business clearly, avoid excessive personal data, and provide an easy way to opt out of future contact.

### Best ways for builders to win extension work
Builders win more extension work by monitoring new planning applications in their patch, contacting homeowners before competitors do, personalising outreach around the proposed build, and following up with clear proof of similar local projects.

### How to monitor new planning applications in your area
To monitor new planning applications in your area, define a map patch or local authority set, filter for the application types you can deliver, save the search, and review a digest of new matches on a regular cadence instead of visiting every council register by hand.

### Planning application leads vs purchased lead lists
Planning application leads show someone is already preparing a project through a public register. Purchased lead lists are usually older contact data with weaker intent. For firms that deliver building work, live planning signals are usually higher quality than generic bought lists.

### What is Plott MCP for Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor?
Plott MCP is a remote Model Context Protocol endpoint at https://plott.uk/api/mcp that lets verified Plott workspaces query live UK planning applications, nearby context and workspace tools from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor after OAuth — it is not a council portal and not a shopping integration.
