Move from site boundary to a clearer view of development potential.

Use Blocktype to test capacity, constraints, developable area, layout options and early viability before more detailed design work begins.

Helps with:

• Producing faster initial feasibility outputs

• Testing what can realistically fit on a site

• Giving clients clearer evidence before the next stage

Helps with:

• Screening more opportunities in less time

• Identifying sites where capacity assumptions are too optimistic

• Deciding which opportunities deserve further diligence

Compare different approaches before a preferred route is chosen.

Test alternative densities, unit mixes, typologies, access assumptions and policy scenarios so clients can understand the trade-offs.

Helps with:

• Comparing multiple layout options

• Testing different development strategies

• Supporting clearer client conversations

Support planning advice with clearer site-level testing.

Use Blocktype to understand how constraints, policy requirements and site characteristics affect capacity and deliverability.

Helps with:

• Moving beyond high-level density assumptions

• Testing capacity against real site constraints

• Supporting planning strategy and early advice

Help public-sector clients understand what land could realistically deliver.

Use Blocktype to assess public land, brownfield sites, estate assets or wider portfolios before detailed consultancy work begins.

Helps with:

• Reviewing more sites consistently

• Prioritising opportunities across a pipeline

• Creating clearer evidence for public-sector decision-making

Give clients a stronger view before they commit.

Use Blocktype to test site potential, constraints, unit mix and early viability to support acquisition, disposal, partnership or delivery strategies.

Helps with:

• Informing land and development strategy

• Supporting disposal or partner conversations

• Identifying risks earlier in the process

Give architects and external consultants a stronger starting point.

Use Blocktype to test the commercial logic of a site before briefing external teams, so consultants start from a clearer view of capacity, mix, constraints, developable area and viability assumptions.

Helps with:

• Briefing architects with clearer commercial and site assumptions

• Testing which layouts, densities or unit mixes are likely to support stronger residual land value

• Reducing the risk of external feasibility work coming back misaligned with commercial expectations

Standardise how early site assessments are produced.

Blocktype gives teams a more consistent way to test and compare sites across projects, clients and portfolios.

Helps with:

• Reducing manual repetition

• Improving consistency across outputs

• Scaling early-stage assessment work across more sites
