## Description

GainScout is the fastest way to take a first look at whether a piece of land in England could be a candidate for Biodiversity Net Gain, the planning rule that has developers paying landowners to make land better for nature.

Point the map at a field and press one button. GainScout reads the exact spot against official, public government datasets and gives you a plain-English answer in seconds, with every finding's source and the date it was checked. Nothing is estimated, nothing is invented.

WHAT EVERY CHECK READS
• Statutory designations: SSSI, SAC, SPA, Ramsar, national and local nature reserves
• Ancient woodland and priority habitats
• Agricultural land grade, with the "best and most versatile" farmland flagged
• Flood risk zones
• Green Belt, National Landscapes and conservation areas
• The Local Nature Recovery Strategy for the area
• The registered biodiversity gain sites near the land, the off-site market you would price against

BUILT FOR THE JOB
• Save sites and track them from "watching" to "in talks"
• Add a walkover checklist, notes and timestamped evidence photos
• Create a dated, professional report with findings, sources, your photos and an OS grid reference, ready to hand to an agent, ecologist or buyer, and export it as a PDF
• Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with your sites, reports and photos synced through your own iCloud

PRO
• Unlimited land checks and reports
• Area Scan, to rank the most promising spots across an area
• Draw your parcel, tracing a boundary for instant acreage and a spot-by-spot check
• Browse every registered gain site near any land
• Compare saved sites side by side

FAIR TO TRY
Your first report is free, and you get three land checks a week at no cost. Buy reports one at a time or by the pack, or subscribe to Pro. No account, no ads, no tracking.

GainScout Pro is an auto-renewing subscription, offered monthly, quarterly or yearly. Payment is taken by your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. It renews at the same price unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the period ends, and you can manage or cancel it any time in your Apple Account settings.
