This week, UrbanToronto relaunched the ultimate tool for anyone looking to dig deep into real estate development across the Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH). UTPro, our advanced business intelligence and mapping service, now offers unprecedented access to real-time data, in-depth project details, and tools designed specifically for professionals who want to track and analyze growth trends across the region.
Fully integrated with UrbanToronto.ca, UTPro combines the latest municipal data, enhanced mapping features, historical documents and customizable reports to provide an up-to-the-minute look at developments from the core of Toronto to the outer edges of the GGH — from Bowmanville to Niagara, and Kitchener to Barrie.

Standout elements of UTPro include:

Updated daily with information sourced directly from municipal documents, UTPro delivers the latest details on developments from Bowmanville to Niagara and Kitchener to Barrie. UrbanToronto Co-Founder and President Edward Skira describes UTPro as “the most comprehensive data and research service in the GGH,” covering residential, hotel to retail, office, transit, and public space.
UTPro now offers three tiers of access, ranging from those seeking quick insights to professionals requiring in-depth analysis:
- Instant Reports allow users to drop a pin anywhere on the map for a rapid summary of projects within a one-kilometre radius. They offer key details like project names, addresses, heights, unit counts, and developers involved.
- UTPro Lite, a month-to-month subscription, provides access to five Instant Reports per month along with advanced map features, such as transit layers and enhanced filtering options for more precise searches.
- UTPro All Access delivers the full range of UTPro’s capabilities. All Access subscribers benefit from unlimited, fully customizable reports, access to over 144 data fields per project, including active and historical planning documents, and exclusive tools like custom shape drawing on the map for targeted geographic analysis.
UTPro All Access offers the ability to create custom reports based on precise geographic areas and project criteria. Subscribers can draw any custom shape on the map, instantly generating a detailed report on every project within that boundary. Paired with advanced filters, this lets users hone in on exactly the data they need — whether they’re analyzing development trends in a specific neighbourhood or comparing similar projects across different areas of the GGH.
All Access subscribers also benefit from Data Streams, a real-time feed of updates on new and modified project documents. This feature keeps users at the forefront of development news, offering immediate access to planning application changes, approval updates, and newly filed documents as they enter the pipeline. This "first-to-know" advantage is invaluable for professionals who need to stay informed about shifts in the market.
The enhanced visualization tools available to All Access users make it easier to understand development patterns in the context of regional infrastructure. With access to a range of map layers — covering transit routes, zoning areas, municipal boundaries, and more — subscribers can analyze projects like never before.
Real estate developers, city planners, policymakers, investors, and market analysts all stand to benefit from the comprehensive insights UTPro offers. As Ash Navabi, UrbanToronto’s resident economist, notes, “For local entrepreneurs and policymakers, nothing beats local data.”
Whether you’re a developer, planner, or investor, UTPro offers the clarity and depth needed to understand growth patterns and seize new opportunities. Explore the full capabilities of UTPro to see how its powerful insights can support your vision for the future of the GGH.
