Every building permit in the Netherlands, read out
No raw titles, no large-projects-only. We read every permit for what actually happens (action, object and scale) and couple it to address and cadastral parcel. From signal to letter on the doormat.
Ontvangen aanvr. omgevingsverg. voor het transformeren en verbouwen van een kantoorgebouw tot 24 woningen, perceel kad. bekend gem. Amsterdam, sectie ASD04 K 7212, gelegen a/d Johan Huizingalaan.
Every permit, not only the big projects
Bouwberichten shows the large schemes. We read out the whole long tail: renovation, extension, dormer, demolition, transformation, felling. Nationwide and automated.
Fifteen action types, parsed from free text, not just a raw title:
Us vs. Bouwberichten and OmgevingsAlert
Three ways to track construction activity. Where they give large projects or raw alerts, we give structured action at parcel level.
| Bouwberichten | OmgevingsAlert | Revelop | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unit | Large projects & tenders, hand-researched | Raw permit alerts + AI summary | Parsed action–object per permit, nationwide |
| Coverage | Large schemes only | All permits (raw) | All permits, structured (~83% classified) |
| Location | Project address | Chosen address + radius | BAG → cadastral parcel → geometry → radius & neighbours |
| Owner / neighbours | No | No | Yes: parcel geometry selects the neighbours |
| Execution | Search portal (manual) | Alerts | Personalised post on the doormat, on request |
| Model | From €800/yr | ~€99/mo Pro | Non-residential: per seat · letters: per campaign |

From signal to letter on the doormat
Four steps. The moat is in the first three: the signal, the parse and the parcel coupling; the letter is the finish.
Detect
Every notice and permit in the Netherlands, tracked nationwide from the official sources and in the same week.
Parse
The free text is read to action level: action, object, scale, phase and number of dwellings, structured, not a raw title.
Couple to parcel
From permit to BAG address to cadastral parcel and geometry, so you know exactly which parcel and who the neighbours are.
Send (optional)
On request we turn the signal into a correct, personalised letter on the doormat. The post is the finish, not the pitch.
