We’ve partnered with GAIA the UK's Leading Biodiversity Unit Marketplace

Our integration brings GAIA’s marketplace for natural capital assets into the Searchland ecosystem - letting you search and compare appropriate biodiversity units, check out the UK’s largest array of habitat banks, and find BNG sellers - while you source and assess land opportunities.

All of the BNG data, comparison & calculation tools, and search filters you need under one roof

With Searchland you’ll get access to a comprehensive suite of BNG tools - letting you assess off-market land for existing habitats, calculate unit requirements against chosen land parcels and even source new off-market habitat banks.
