Submit A Plan Limited

Submit A Plan Limited is a United Kingdom company that operates UK Planning Gateway, an independent online planning application platform for architects, architectural technologists, planning consultants and other professional planning agents across England and Wales. The platform is designed to make planning submissions more reliable by combining guided application forms, organised plans and documents, checks for potential omissions, and supported submission to the relevant Local Planning Authority (LPA). Its core proposition is validation alignment: the system checks a proposed submission against the LPA's published validation requirements before it is sent, aiming to reduce common causes of invalidation and resubmission. The service is positioned as a structured digital workflow rather than a simple form-filling tool. Users create an account, prepare their submission with guided checks, submit a validation-ready document set to the relevant LPA, and then track progress and correspondence against a single case record. The company describes itself as practice led, built around real submission workflows used by planning professionals, and it markets the platform on the basis of reduced administrative friction and fewer avoidable resubmissions. UK Planning Gateway states that it is now live across England and Wales and is used by planning professionals nationwide. It also promotes an AI planning adviser called AskArchi, and offers tailored tools and council partnerships for Local Planning Authorities seeking to reduce workloads. The platform is aimed at several audiences: professional planning agents and practices, councils, and individual homeowners preparing one-off applications. Submit A Plan Limited is a private company. Public evidence does not disclose its founding year, founders, ownership structure, headquarters location or executive team, and those details are therefore omitted here rather than estimated. The brand's public identity is closely tied to its product name, UK Planning Gateway, which it presents as an alternative to the existing Planning Portal system for planning applications and validation in England and Wales.

Submit A Plan Limited is a United Kingdom company that provides digital planning and application services. Its principal public-facing product is UK Planning Gateway, an independent online planning application platform for architects, architectural technologists, planning consultants and other professional planning agents across England and Wales. The platform was built around a specific problem in the planning system: applications are frequently invalidated or returned because they do not meet a Local Planning Authority's published validation requirements, creating administrative friction and resubmissions for practices. UK Planning Gateway addresses this by checking a proposed submission against those published requirements before it is sent, using guided application forms, organised plans and documents, and checks for potential omissions. The service describes itself as practice led, meaning it was built around real submission workflows used by planning professionals. Its workflow has four main stages: create an account; prepare the submission with guided checks aligned to the LPA's published validation requirements; submit securely to the relevant LPA with a validation-ready document set; and track progress and correspondence against a single case record. According to its own materials, the platform is now live across England and Wales and is used by planning professionals nationwide. It markets itself against the existing Planning Portal system, presenting a feature comparison and positioning UK Planning Gateway as setting a new direction for planning applications and validation in England and Wales. The company has also run a BETA programme, with at least one architecture practice publicly noting its inclusion. Beyond the core submission platform, the company has expanded its offering in two directions. For planning professionals it promotes AskArchi, described as an AI planning adviser. For Local Planning Authorities it offers tailored efficiency tools and council partnerships intended to reduce workloads. It also addresses individual homeowners preparing one-off applications. Public evidence does not disclose the company's founding year, founders, ownership, headquarters or executive team. What is clear is that Submit A Plan Limited operates as a private company whose brand identity is closely tied to the UK Planning Gateway product name.
