​Groundsure's collaboration with Serac Group's API, IBex, has led to a groundbreaking planning data pipeline, enhancing the precision and efficiency of planning application data for legal professionals.

Background: The Need for Enhanced Data Accuracy in Conveyancing

Property professionals, including conveyancers and commercial real estate lawyers, depend on precise planning and environmental data when conducting due diligence on transactions. Inaccurate or outdated data can lead to legal risks, financial losses, and poor investment decisions. Traditional property search methods often suffer from fragmented or inconsistent data sources, leading to potential discrepancies in planning insights.

Groundsure and Serac have identified these pain points and sought to revolutionise the conveyancing process through their strategic collaboration. Their partnership focuses on refining planning application data to provide greater accuracy, timeliness, and transparency. As a solution, Serac Group developed IBex, the most accurate planning data API in the UK.
