See demand before your competitors do.
The biodiversity net gain (BNG) market is getting more competitive. And it’s about to get harder. abitat intel surfaces qualified demand, maps where you have an edge, and gives you the tools to win deals you’d otherwise lose.
The problem
You’re competing blind.
Most habitat banks aren’t short of land or units. They’re short of visibility.
Leads arrive late, through intermediaries, after faster operators have already moved. You compete on price because you can’t see where your supply is genuinely scarce. And every enquiry means hours of manual optioneering before you can even respond.
You’ve probably tried to fix this yourself: spreadsheets, scraping, maybe some AI tooling. Most teams run out of steam before the data starts paying back. It’s scattered across the register, planning portals, and a dozen sources that don’t talk to each other.
The shift
The ground is moving.
As each Local Nature Recovery Strategy publishes its local habitat map, strategic significance stops being a judgement call and starts being a lookup. Sites that can show a mapped priority measure carry the uplift; neighbouring sites that cannot are suddenly competing on price alone.
The operators who come out ahead will be the ones who saw it coming: who understood their competitive position before the rules changed, not after.
The solution
What abitat intel gives you.
Demand before your competitors see it
abitat intel reads the planning applications that signal future need, so you can see where demand is forming while it is still an application rather than an enquiry.
Your competitive position, mapped
See your share of supply, over an LPA, NCA or LNRS. Understand where the market is genuinely scarce and where it's saturated. Stop competing on price in geographies where you hold an edge you couldn't previously see.
Faster fulfilment, less manual work
Know in seconds whether you can fulfil a request, and exactly how. The optioneering work that used to take hours (cross-referencing habitats, units, and geography) is built into the platform.
Query it your way
The AI tooling that actually pays back.
You’ve likely tried pointing an AI at this problem before, and watched it stall on data that was never joined up. abitat intel is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint, so the join is already done: connect Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot or any other AI, and ask where you’re scarce, who’s gaining on you, or which leads to chase first, in plain language. Every registered site, habitat, allocation and demand signal in England, behind the speed and power of AI.
Why abitat intel
Built on the data nobody else has joined up.
Every registered BNG site in England, linked to habitats, allocations, LPAs, NCAs and planning applications.
Supply mapped at operator level: your full portfolio across every geography, in one view.
Built by the team behind the open source statutory biodiversity metric. The matching logic is grounded in genuine technical depth, not surface-level data aggregation.
Infrastructure, not intermediary. We never sit at the negotiating table or take a percentage. The deal is yours.
