Our take
LanTech is a UK proptech providing data-driven tools to support property professionals in identifying, analysing, and progressing development opportunities. Its core product, LandInsight, uses large datasets to help developers discover and assess potential sites more efficiently, while LandEnhance gives planners streamlined access to planning and policy information in one place.
The property sector has traditionally been slow to modernise, but increasing pressure to deliver new house has pushed demand for faster, more informed decision-making. And LandTech sits in this shift by helping reduce friction in the early stages of development, allowing users to move from site discovery through to planning insight and funding considerations more efficiently.
The platform is now used by a large network of property professionals, including major UK housebuilders and thousands of industry users. Backed by significant investment in recent years, LandTech has expanded its product ecosystem beyond pure site-finding tools, increasingly integrating planning, data, and funding insights to support a more joined-up development workflow from start to finish.
