Building Atlas Connect
Building intelligence inside your own workflow.
Get programmatic access to the same engine that sits behind every Portfolio Plan and Pulse report. It is built for lenders, real estate portals, consultancies, and platforms that want building risk, retrofit, cost, and climate intelligence inside their own systems rather than another dashboard to log into.
What Building Atlas Connect makes available
Connect gives your systems direct access to Building Atlas intelligence through API endpoints and MCP tools. Use it to enrich your own workflows, power internal portals, support AI agents, or pull building-level and portfolio-level insight into the tools your teams already use.
Asset and portfolio data
Query buildings, units, addresses, floor areas, use types, heating systems, ratings, constraints, and other core asset attributes. Keep your own systems connected to the structured building model behind Building Atlas.
Performance and ratings signals
Access energy use, emissions, annual cost, EPC-style ratings, benchmark or meter-backed data status, and confidence levels. Use these signals to surface risk, prioritise review, or enrich existing asset records.
Retrofit measures and feasibility
Retrieve recommended retrofit measures, unavailable measures, capex ranges, savings, payback, carbon impact, rating movement, and feasibility logic. Bring Building Atlas recommendations into your own diligence, lending, or asset-management workflows.
Plans and scenarios
Create, retrieve, and compare scenarios such as MEES compliance plans, net zero pathways, budget-led roadmaps, or custom intervention bundles. Expose the cost, carbon, rating, and timing implications without forcing users into another dashboard.
Risk, compliance, and transition indicators
Surface building-level and portfolio-level signals for MEES exposure, stranding risk, retrofit burden, emissions trajectory, and climate-related constraints. Use them as decision inputs for underwriting, valuation, asset review, or portfolio monitoring.
Reports, extracts, and agent workflows
Generate reports, pull structured outputs, or let approved AI agents query Building Atlas through MCP. Connect can support internal tools, customer portals, credit workflows, consultant dashboards, and automated review processes.
A sample call
Authentication is via API key. Provide addresses or UPRNs and receive a detailed asset output in a structured format. Documentation and schema are provided to customers when you request an API key.

}REST or MCP
The same data behind a different surface. Pick whichever fits the way your system is built.
REST API
Single calls or bulk batches, JSON in and JSON out. Sandbox API key available on request by Building Atlas customers.
MCP server
The same intelligence exposed as a Model Context Protocol server, so an LLM agent inside your workflow can query buildings, screen risk, and assemble plans without leaving its context.
