What counts as a match.
| Filter | How PlanningBrief uses it |
|---|---|
| County | Uses the county on the public planning, commencement, tender or appeal record. |
| Project type | Uses the same classification shown on lead pages, such as one-off house, large residential, energy or commercial fit-out. |
| Record lane | Can be limited to planning applications, commencement notices or tender notices without mixing lifecycle stages. |
| Audience | Uses the reader tags already shown across PlanningBrief: trades, suppliers, professional services or investment. |
| No new match | No email is sent. The first run records a baseline so older records do not create a flood. |

How it works
PlanningBrief stores your email address, alert cadence and chosen query filters. It stores the saved search, not a copy of every matching record.
Alert emails use double opt-in and include an alert-specific unsubscribe link. No email is sent when a saved search has no new matching records.
Commencement digest
Works starting in your counties.
Weekly list of works starting in your counties, built for trades. These are commencement notices filed with building control, not contractor appointments.
