How LandScout Works
LandScout continuously scans city/county agendas and meeting minutes, parses the PDFs, and uses AI to detect every real-estate development motion—then turns them into structured, searchable indicators on an interactive map and dashboard. It's the first platform purpose-built to read municipal minutes at scale so you never have to comb PDFs again.
What we detect (and normalize):
- Rezoning
- Variances
- Special/Conditional Use Permits
- Subdivision/Plats
Upcoming features:
- Site Plans
- Building/Grading Permits
- Annexations
Why it's different (and better):
- Automatic coverage — New agendas/minutes are fetched as they're published—no need to upload files.
- Structured facts, not text — Each finding is standardized (case number, applicant, meeting date/type, from/to zoning, municipality).
- Map + dashboard — Filter by type, applicant, and date; bookmark items and see changes over time.
- Trust built-in — Every indicator links to the original source file (PDF) for one-click verification.
