Last week, one council from each city

Suburb only on this free sample. Paying members get the street address, the council file and who to ring.

CouncilStageSuburbWhatTradesValueSeen
Quiet week. Council's on the tea break. Nothing new in your patch — sharpen the pencil, we'll be back Monday.

What the stages mean

LODGED

Lodged — someone has put an application in to council. Nothing's approved yet, but you know a job is coming.

ON EXHIBITION

On exhibition — council has put it up for neighbours to comment. Usually a few weeks before a decision.

APPROVED

Approved — council said yes. The job can start. This is the one to ring about.

Refused — council said no. We show it so you don't waste a call.

What you get

Every Monday, 6am

An email and a spreadsheet: which council, what stage, the address, what they're building, which trades it needs, how big the job is, who to ring, and a link to the council file.

Instant + daily (Pro)

How fast do you want it? Instant (we'll ping you), Daily 6am, or the Monday wrap.

Quotes in two taps (Pro)

Logo, ABN, licences, insurance, terms. Put 'em in once. They're on every quote forever. Fill this in once. Every quote after that is two taps.

Coverage

Some councils only publish what's on exhibition, not what got approved. We tell you which. We don't make stuff up to fill the gap.

FAQ

Where does the data come from?

Public council planning registers and open-data feeds — the same pages anyone can click through. We attribute every source below and we never touch PlanningAlerts, Google Maps or real-estate sites.

Why no names?

Company names only. A person's name is private; a company's isn't. We drop anything that looks like a person's name before we store it — so you get 'Simonds Homes', never 'J. Smith'.

How fresh is it?

Most councils post overnight. We check every hour or every few hours depending on the council, and every row shows the time we saw it. Pro alerts go out minutes after we see it.

How do I cancel?

One click in your billing page, no phone call. We keep your stuff for 30 days in case you come back, then it's gone.

Who sees my quotes and prices?

Only you. We never share them with other customers and we never sell them. Export everything or delete it any time.
