How to choose
The choice usually comes down to what mix of property types fills your week.
If you're regularly across commercial, mixed-use or EV infrastructure and you want a very broad dataset (30M+ comparables, substation mapping, footfall and mobility insights), Nimbus Maps is built for that breadth. Expect a sales-led process and pricing in the £150-£400 per licence per month band.
If your day is residential development, brownfield sourcing and back-garden opportunities, LandHunt is more focused there and adds AI planning risk scoring plus the Deal Analyser for BTL, BRRR, flip and HMO numbers. £49/month, month-to-month, 72-hour free trial with instant access.
Common questions
What is Nimbus Maps?
Nimbus Maps is a UK property intelligence platform that combines site-finding filters, planning applications, ownership records, comparables and infrastructure data. It pulls from 2,000+ data sources including HM Land Registry, Ordnance Survey, National Grid and Valuation Office Agency, and holds 30M+ comparable sales records.
How much does Nimbus Maps cost?
Nimbus Maps does not publish pricing on its website; you have to book a demo. Third-party reviews reference tiers in the £150 to £400 per licence per month band. LandHunt starts at £49 per month, month-to-month, with pricing published on the site.
What are the main differences between LandHunt and Nimbus Maps?
Focus: Nimbus Maps is a broad property intelligence tool serving surveyors, commercial developers, EV infrastructure companies and deal sourcers. LandHunt is narrower and deeper on residential development sourcing, with a Claude-powered planning risk score and Deal Analyser for BTL/BRRR/flip/HMO modelling. Buying process: Nimbus is sales-led with a demo; LandHunt is self-serve with a public price and 72-hour trial.
Is Nimbus Maps better for commercial property?
Yes, if you're primarily working on commercial, EV infrastructure or mixed-use, Nimbus Maps has a broader commercial dataset (30M+ comparables, DNO substation mapping, footfall/mobility insights). LandHunt is focused on residential development and land sourcing, so it's a better fit if that's where your day is.
Which has better mobile support?
LandHunt ships Scout, a native iOS app with AR parcel overlay for site visits. Nimbus Maps is a web platform, so mobile use is browser-based. If you spend time on site rather than at a desk, that difference tends to matter.
Can I try Nimbus Maps without paying?
Nimbus Maps requires a demo booking; there is no self-serve trial published on the site. LandHunt offers a 72-hour free trial with instant access.
