Participatr - Simple and easy-to-use online consultation tools for built environment projects

Map ideas, issues, aspirations and insight

Placemakers, developers, transport planners and civic leaders can gather insight to inform masterplans and planning policies, by asking communities to pinpoint issues, ideas and aspirations for their place on an interactive map.

Comments can be colour-coded by sentiment, revealing problem areas and helping set priorities for change.

Gather feedback on development plans

Planners and developers can gather insight and feedback on plans and proposals for new homes, retail, offices, transport infrastructure and mixed-use development.

Our smartphone-compatible tools give young, busy and hard-to-reach people a chance to get involved, bringing more balanced and representative consultation outcomes.

Build support for ideas and planning proposals

Citizens, policy makers and developers can gauge support for built environment ideas, plans and proposals, by highlighting it on an interactive map for anyone to find, read about, comment on, support and share with friends, family and neighbours.

Maps can cover streets, neighbourhoods, wards, villages, towns, cities, regions and countries.
