Planning commission approvals are public record. The approval happens 12-18 months before the store opens. Almost nobody reads those meetings. We do.
I pulled Hillsborough County's full property appraiser database — 1 million residential transactions — and ran a repeat-sale analysis. Every grocery anchor in the county. Three independent time windows spanning 2010 to 2022.

On a $300,000 home near an approved Publix: +$38,700 in expected premium appreciation vs. a comparable home two miles away. The approval — the moment it's actually knowable — happens at a government meeting most people ignore.
The signal is consistent across a decade of market cycles. We built the pipeline to catch it the same day it happens.
Across every county in Florida and Georgia. When a new agenda is posted, we download and process it within hours — not days, not weeks.
National grocery chains don't appear in meeting titles. Their name is buried in staff reports and applicant filings. Our pipeline finds it — Publix, Aldi, Walmart, Kroger, Lidl, and more.
Location, lead time to opening, historical premium data for that specific area, and a heatmap of the parcels inside the 0.5-mile signal ring.
This is the exact format. Real data, real structure. The address below is a placeholder — the next approval is the real one.

I'm a data scientist. My day job involves public infrastructure data and planning documents that nobody outside the industry bothers to read. I got curious about whether planning commission minutes contained signals that real estate investors were missing.
So I tested it. I downloaded a million property transactions from the Hillsborough County Property Appraiser FTP. I mapped every grocery store. I ran a repeat-sale analysis across three independent time windows. The signal was real and it was consistent.
Then I built the pipeline to catch it in real time. PlanEdge is what that became.
