01 / Why Plumb

Look at more sites. Invest your time in the right ones.

Today, the data room is only partly read before the price is agreed. The full review comes afterwards, over 8 to 12 weeks. That’s when the risks surface, and late risks mean a re-trade or a deal that falls away. Finding them early works for buyer and seller alike.

With Plumb2 to 5 hoursto a cited risk register
Today, consultants are instructed and their reports drafted over 8 to 12 weeks of exclusivity, and the risks surface at the end, when the price gets renegotiated. With Plumb, a cited risk register is ready in 2 to 5 hours, your consultants spend 1 to 2 weeks on a targeted review list, and from week 3 the risks are known with weeks of exclusivity to spare. Illustrative timeline for one acquisition. The Plumb register is drawn to scale; the exclusivity period reflects a typical UK deal.

03 / Who it’s for

A clear reading in hours,
whichever side of the deal you’re on.

For buyers

Developers · Investors
  • Time. A go or no-go in hours, before your team sinks a week into the site.
  • Risk. Your risk position in your hands from day one, each risk sourced.
  • Money. Your budget behind the sites you’ll actually buy.

For consultancies

Due diligence · Technical
  • Time. Start every instruction with the data room already read and organised.
  • Risk. Links between disciplines surfaced, and gaps between workstreams flagged.
  • Money. More bids with the same team, and your hours on the advice clients pay for.

For agents

Agency · Capital markets
  • Time. Know what’s in the data room, and what’s missing, before buyers ask.
  • Risk. Find the gaps and conflicts first, so buyers’ advisers don’t find them for you.
  • Money. Protect the sale price from late renegotiation after heads of terms.

For lenders

Development finance · Investment lending
  • Time. A credit view in hours, so you can say yes before other lenders do.

04 / Data security

Your data room stays yours.

Data rooms hold some of the most sensitive information in a deal. Your documents are used for your projects and nothing else.

Each client’s data rooms are kept to that client. They are never pooled or shared, never used to train AI, and deleted when you ask, whether a deal completes or falls away.

05 / Questions

Common questions.

01

What is Plumb?

Plumb is AI-assisted pre-acquisition due diligence for commercial property investors and developers. It reads every document in a deal’s data room (the planning, title, environmental and technical material a buyer is working from) and turns them into one structured, cited view, so you know the ground before you bid.

02

Does it replace my consultants?

No. It gives them a sourced starting point, so their time goes on solving problems. You can assign each risk to the right adviser and track it to close-out.

03

How accurate is it, and who checks it?

Accurate enough to catch what the experts miss. On many of our clients’ test deals, Plumb has found real issues that the consultant team missed. And you never have to take its word for it: every finding links to the page it came from, so your team can check it in a click, and you can edit, re-grade or dismiss any finding.

04

How is it different from using Claude on a data room?

A general assistant answers the question you ask, from as much of the data room as fits in its context window, and it won’t tell you what it left out. Plumb is built for this one job. It reads every page of every document and never skips content. It tells you what the data room doesn’t contain, not just what it does. Its specialist agents, one per discipline, are tuned to challenge and stress-test each other’s findings, so contradictions surface instead of being smoothed over. Every risk traces through its reasoning to the source documents and pages. And behind every report is a company accountable for it, not a chat window.

05

What does it cover?

Ten disciplines, each with its own specialist workflow: planning; title and legal; environmental, including contamination and ecology; flood risk and drainage; ground conditions; transport and highways; utilities; biodiversity net gain; commercial and valuation; and measured survey. Plumb checks the documents against each other and flags where they conflict.

06

What happens to our documents?

They are used only for your projects and never pooled or shared. Our AI provider is contractually prohibited from training on them, and we delete your data on request.

07

What happens when I book a demo?

We’ll reply within one working day and walk you through Plumb on a site you know.

08

Can we try it on a live deal?

Yes. Start with a three-run pilot: use Plumb on three live data rooms of your choice and compare it against your current process. Ask about a three-run pilot.

For a specific report, read our due diligence guides: walkthroughs of the planning permission, title register, flood risk assessment, contamination reports, ecological appraisal, biodiversity net gain metric, ground investigation report, measured building survey and transport assessment you will find in a data room.
