Industry Mainstay

CityScan Technologies (AssetIntel) is a high-utility B2B infrastructure platform with verified contracts across major US and Canadian government agencies (TDOT, GDOT, City of LA). While the submission itself contained significant data errors (incorrect name 'SwiftKeeper', false audience claims like 'everyone'), independent verification confirms a robust business solving critical civil engineering challenges using AI. The score reflects the project's strong real-world impact and market position, heavily penalized for the low-quality submission data.

Description
Our mission is to accelerate the world's transportation industry's transition to safe, equitable, and sustainable practices. Our vision is to create innovative solutions which combine emerging technologies with civil engineering best practices that are accessible to every community. By combining technology with analytics, automation, and engineering judgement, CityScan is uniquely positioned as an end-to-end provider of applied intelligence civil engineering services and solutions. Leveraging emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, augmented and virtual reality, the internet of things (IoT), and civil engineering best practices, we develop cost-effective monitoring and management solutions for transportation network owners and operators globally. As a result, our solutions are more accessible, and they increase the level of service for the network users (citizens) while also prolonging the life of the assets. As Civil Engineers with practical knowledge and experience, we have the insight to develop solutions that best support our colleagues and the assets they manage. Our solutions are designed to seamlessly integrate into existing practices and systems, while also being future-forward, allowing for expansion when and as needed. Data-Driven & Transparent Intelligence Our flagship solution, AssetIntel (www.assetintel.io), is the future of pavement and infrastructure asset monitoring and intelligence. Leveraging AI and engineering best practices, AssetIntel is a practical pavement and asset management system that enables data-driven and transparent decisions to increase the level of service and prolong the life of transportation networks, such as roads & parking lots, and active travel networks such as sidewalks (footpaths), trails, paths, & cycle paths. AssetIntel is designed to seamlessly integrate into existing pavement and asset assessment practices and systems, while also being future-forward, allowing for expansion.
