UrbanistAI tool was created through a collaboration between Toretei and SPIN Unit, bringing together advanced AI development and urban planning expertise. Our partnership aims to revolutionize the planning process, enhance efficiency, and develop innovative solutions tailored to modern urban challenges by combining research and experience in the urban planning sector with innovations in Generative AI technology. UrbanistAI is a service delivered by our founding organizations in Italy / Finland / Estonia.

- How AI is used
- UrbanistAI utilizes diverse data sources to generate insightful and actionable outcomes for urban planning. By integrating geographic information systems (GIS), demographic data, and public input from surveys or workshops, AI models analyze spatial and social patterns to propose evidence-based solutions. AI can process large datasets, such as traffic flow or air quality indices, to identify trends and visualize the potential impact of urban interventions. For example, when planning a pedestrian-friendly zone, AI combines real-time mapping data with historical urban metrics to create predictive models that guide design decisions. This capability ensures data-driven, adaptive urban planning that balances community needs with environmental and infrastructural considerations. UrbanistAI also acts as a policy simulator trained on core document sets: "When trained with policy documents, UrbanistAI Mobile enables policymakers to demystify complex urban policies by allowing participants to visualize their real-world implications."
