JDi has partnered with the Liverpool University to create a tool designed to support evidence review, improve Planning Policy efficiency and help officers work more effectively within the upcoming 30 Month Local Plan System and beyond.
Built for real planning workflows, PlanAI enhances decision-making by providing faster insight, structured analysis and consistent support for officers.
Condense long evidence documents, technical studies and submissions into clear, digestible summaries, ideal for early evidence base preparation.
PlanAI identifies recurring issues, themes and patterns across large datasets to support policy direction and examination readiness.
Analyse large volumes of consultation responses quickly and consistently, using AI tools built specifically for consultation analysis in planning contexts.
Accelerate the understanding of complex site submissions and related evidence, improving structure and clarity across your Local Plan workflow.
PlanAI complements existing digital planning tools and supports councils as they transition to more data driven transparent systems aligned with national expectations.
The biggest cost pressure on Planning Teams is time. Plan AI means fewer hours spent reviewing long documents, faster consultation and evidence processing and more consistent outputs even with limited staffing.
PlanAI requires no complex setup, no system migration and no IT involvement.
Most councils can begin using PlanAI the same day they receive access.
Terry D’Souza of Greater Cambridge Shared Planning Services shares his experience of using both OpusConsult and Plan AI.
