Designed by communities, for communities — tested by communities, supported with help from communities. Your subscription funds the AI inference and geospatial hosting that keeps this running for everyone in the network.
This isn't a prototype. The system is already producing objection letters at a quality ready for legal review, alongside full community governance structures — Andrew and Lesley are stress-testing it right now ahead of the first beta cohort.
We're onboarding community groups 5 at a time, once Andrew and Lesley have finished stress-testing the system. If you're selected as a beta user, you get full access free for three months. After that, you'll move onto whichever Supporter plan suits your group — there's no surprise charge, we'll be in touch well before your trial ends.
5 groups onboarded this month, 5 more next month, 10 more the month after — 20 hands-on testers in total — while we keep building the pieces beyond the core pipeline.
Andrew and Lesley are stress-testing the live pipeline — site scan, mapping, objection letters, governance recommendations — ahead of the first cohort.
Full access, free, for three months. Hands-on support through every stage, including governance protocols for larger campaigns.
Second cohort onboarded. We start collecting screenshots, clips, and quotes from Lesley and Andrew for the showcase video.
Final beta cohort onboarded. Stripe billing goes live for everyone converting off their beta trial or joining fresh on a Supporter plan.
The remaining waitlist converts on a rolling basis. The User Forum ships as an enhancement. The short showcase video — built with help from communities who've used the system — goes public.
Beta cohort growth, at a glance
This system exists to fight resource asymmetry, so when the Forum ships it won't reproduce that asymmetry in how it's governed. The plan: paying more will buy Circulation capacity and recognition — never extra votes.

Gated by participation — having run a case — never by tier or amount paid.
A walkthrough of each layer of the system, in the order you would encounter them running a real case. Layers marked Live are shipping today; layers marked Roadmap arrive with the next release.
Open a new case with the developer's name, the application reference, and the site postcode. From that single screen, the system begins pulling in the constraints, policies, and documents that apply — work that used to take a community group two weeks compressed into minutes.
The postcode alone unlocks a national picture — Green Belt status, flood zones, protected habitats, environmental deprivation, your MP, and your Local Planning Authority — pulled from fifty-four live government and public-interest sources. The same baseline a paid planning consultant would start from.
YourPlanningVoice identifies your Local Planning Authority automatically, and lists every policy document that applies to the case — Local Plan, SPDs, neighbourhood plans — alongside the regional and national policy above them. The right stack of documents, ready before you write a word.
Live map overlays of greenspace access, tree canopy, heat exposure, and national planning layers — laid against the statutory planning balance the case officer is legally required to weigh. What the officer sees, before the objection is written.
Drop a Design and Access Statement, a Transport Assessment, or a Decision Notice into the library. YourPlanningVoice reads it, pulls out the numbers that matter — dwelling counts, deadlines, planning conditions — and returns a structured summary with every fact traceable to its source page.
Beyond the letter — alternative proposals for the site, framed in regenerative design principles, and shaped by what the community has said actually matters about the place. A well-argued objection becomes a well-argued counter-proposal.
A built-in newsletter tool that sends briefings, calls to action, and case updates to your list. Neighbours, parish councillors, allied campaigns — everyone who needs to know, informed in a single send. Up to five thousand contacts depending on your plan.
Coming in the next release. A full statutory objection letter with NPPF citations, case-law references, and local evidence woven in — passed through a four-validator forensic check before it reaches you. Legal-review quality, generated in minutes.
A Roadmap enhancement. When a community group needs legal standing — a Community Benefit Society, a CIO, a Community Land Trust — the system recommends the right structure and generates the governance blueprint to back it.
Underneath every layer: a constitutional measurement system, not a generic AI writer. Every claim the system makes is checked against verified data and statutory rules before it reaches you. If a claim cannot be evidenced, it does not get made.

Once we're hosted by a fiscal sponsor and processing real contributions, every penny will appear in a public ledger on Open Collective.
An introductory founder tier for the first year of the platform. Pay once and unlock a full year of top-tier access: unlimited active cases, up to 5,000 contacts, unlimited newsletter sends, and 3 logins. Your name will be listed permanently on the YourPlanningVoice website as a founding supporter. At the end of Year 1 you'll be prompted to pick a Starter, Experienced, or Champion subscription to continue.
A separate, community-donation option remains available for supporters who want to give without taking product access — see the donation button in the footer.
Every paid account starts here. There's no ongoing free tier — see the 3-month beta trial above if you're joining as an early tester.
Up to 500 contacts · 1 login
Covers infrastructure for a single-group campaign. Your £50 funds roughly 125 objection letters' worth of AI inference and hosting.

Champion and Founder Member sit on top of a Starter or Experienced plan — they're not a way to skip one.
For organisations ready to fund a bigger footprint — annual top-up, not a replacement for your monthly plan.
A founder-tier show of belief in this becoming permanent community infrastructure. This add-on is only available while the Beta phase is live; once we exit Beta it will retire and existing Founder Members are named permanently on the site.
Test mode is live — real card charges are processed by Stripe. Add-ons require an active Supporter plan; you can pair the two in either order.
We keep any partner presence on the platform relevant and to a minimum — this isn't an ad platform. If your organisation wants to support the network at scale, partner placements start from £500/year. Get in touch and we'll talk through what fits.
Once we've secured CIO charity status or a registered fiscal host, eligible UK contributions can be uplifted by 25p via Gift Aid — at zero additional cost to you. The exact eligibility depends on what each subscription tier provides in return, which we'll confirm clearly before claiming anything.
We'll prompt for the Gift Aid declaration at checkout once this is ready. Until then, we're recording donor intent only.
We rely entirely on community groups like yours to keep this technology independent of the developer interests it exists to challenge.

YourPlanningVoice exists because these people put money in early — before we had users, before we had a product — because they believed community groups deserved the same planning-intelligence tools that developers already have.
