Let's build one million homes

Get in touch

Interested in Attract?

Attract is our tool for generating quick development appraisals. We are currently trialling a whitelabelled pilot of the software with a small group of developers and land promoters.

If that's you, get in touch.

Tract is building the platform for planning.

We believe that housing is the largest domestic political problem that the United Kingdom faces, and that the planning system is the biggest barrier to solving it.

Our software allows developers, land promoters, and planning consultants to reason about planning risk, develop applications, and work the plan through the planning process.

We do machine learning, geospatial data, carefully designed UIs, and a lot of things that don't scale.

We are going to build one million homes in the next ten years.

Why are you doing this?

Britain today has a backlog of 4.3 million homes.[source] The average house price in London is £534,000[source], more than 12 times the median salary.[source] Housing is upstream of almost everything else in the economy.

It's a political problem, but that doesn't mean it necessarily needs a political solution. We believe that the housing crisis can be solved with better technology.
