The tool aims to cut householder planning application decision times by 50% by automating data extraction, policy identification, consultation summarization, and draft report generation. Planning officers retain full decision-making authority with a complete audit trail. The prototype is being trialed in Barnet, Camden, and Dorset, with a national rollout to all UK councils planned for 2027. It builds on Extract, an existing Gemini-based tool that converts legacy planning PDFs into structured data, already saving councils around 255 hours of manual work per year. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
