CYVL

We're pleased to announce three new CYVL partners: the City of Utica, New York, the City and County of Broomfield, Colorado, and the Town of Natick, Massachusetts! Utica, New York is a city of 63,000 in the Mohawk Valley of central New York. Founded on the site of historic Fort Schuyler and situated along the Erie Canal, Utica was home to the first post-Prohibition alcohol sale in the nation. Broomfield, Colorado is home to 79,000 residents and sits between Denver and Boulder at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Uniquely consolidated as both a city and a county, Broomfield has become a hub for the aerospace and tech industries. Natick, Massachusetts, a town of 37,000 just west of Boston, is one of the oldest towns in Massachusetts, having been established in 1651. Its main street is part of the storied Boston Marathon route, marking roughly mile 11 of the historic 26.2-mile course. Partners like these are the reason we do this work! We're honored to bring Infrastructure Intelligence to their streets.

The pavement management plan just got rewritten. Today we're releasing Cyvl Pavement Management Plans. Dynamic, multi-year plans that use real PCI data to schedule projects year by year, track budget and completion, and shift paving from reactive to preventative maintenance. Public officials have been carrying their communities through years of deferred infrastructure investment. With static plans, spreadsheets, and maps marked up by hand. Their work is the backbone of American infrastructure, but legacy tooling hasn't served them the way they deserve. We built something that does. Join us for an announcement webinar, tomorrow Tuesday June 30, from 2-3pm ET. Registration link in the comments.

CYVL's making our Honky Tonk debut this summer: Infrastructure Intelligence is coming to the Music City 🤠🎸! A big welcome to our newest partner, the City of Nashville, Tennessee. Known for its world-class country music scene, Nashville has become one of the most forward-thinking metros in the country, consistently investing in smarter systems and services to keep pace with the people who call it home. We're thrilled to be working alongside some of the nation's most innovative public servants at the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County. Here's to safer streets and smarter infrastructure for every Nashvillian!

Concrete is here. We just shipped a new AI model that automatically detects and maps concrete road distresses and conditions: cracking, joints, patching, spalling, and scaling. Across an entire street in a single drive. No crews, no windshield surveys. Learn more ➡️ www.cyvl.com

Please join us in welcoming three new CYVL partners: the City of Lindon, Utah, the City of Estacada, Oregon, and Boone County, Indiana! Lindon, Utah is a city of roughly 12,000 in the Provo metro area. First settled in 1861 as a pioneer town, the city is known for its picturesque views of the Wasatch Mountains. The City of Estacada, Oregon is a small city of 6,000 located in the greater-Portland area. Estacada has a rich logging history and is the birthplace of geocaching! Boone County, Indiana sits just northwest of Indianapolis with a population of 80,000. Known as an agricultural stronghold, it has seen a 14% population increase since the 2020 census. We’re thrilled to bring Infrastructure Intelligence to these communities!

Ever crept out past a stop sign because a parked car or an overgrown bush was blocking your view of traffic? That blind corner is what SightLine finds, and it took first place at our first Physical AI Hackathon. Right now cities still check these corners by hand, one consultant walking one intersection at a time. Every stop sign has a zone drivers are legally supposed to see across before pulling out, and when a tree or a parked car blocks it, people end up guessing. The city is the one on the hook when it goes wrong. One overgrown corner in Nashville ended up costing $293,200. SightLine checks a whole city overnight instead. It runs on Cyvl's existing street assets and lidar data and years of crash records, then rebuilds each intersection in 3D so you can actually see what a driver can't. The worst corner it found in Somerville already had 18 crashes behind it. From there every flagged corner turns into something a city can act on: trim the bush, repaint the stop line, pull a parking spot, or move the sign, all from inside the Autodesk Viewer. Built by Rohan Walia, Philip Smith, Shibani S., and Pranay Katyal. See it: https://lnkd.in/eMhn4WbP GitHub: https://lnkd.in/eeX_Eiea

Missed our hackathon, but still itching to build with CYVL this summer? Applications close NEXT MONDAY for our six-week Summer Innovation Program in partnership with The Public Innovation Institute. If building at the intersection of public policy, infrastructure data, and Physical AI sounds dreamy, then this is the place to be. Apply now: https://lnkd.in/emFQrdQP

Most hackathons end with a demo and a dead repo. Ours ended with teams that are still building. At our first Physical AI Hackathon, students from Harvard, MIT, Carnegie Mellon, Columbia, Olin, WPI, and more built on real infrastructure data and real city problems. No toy datasets. No fake challenges. No throwaway demos. Just real Physical AI problems with real-world stakes. We’re doing it again, but this time double the prize and double the time to bulid. $24,000 cash prize pool. Full weekend to build. Real data. Real problems. Real startups. Comment your email below and we’ll add you to the mailing list.

We just had our first Cyvl Hackathon! We had over 150 applicants with only 48 students getting in. $12,000 in cash for our winners!!! 💵 Thank you to everyone who came out. We hope you learned a ton and keep building on top of Cyvl's physical world data. Congrats to First: Pranay Katyal, Rohan Walia, Philip Smith, & Shibani S. Second: Kevin Yuan, Nilli M., Mohammed Albarakat, & Eric Truong Third: Premkumar Sethumadhavan, Yong Lu, Yixin Zhou, & Akil Pugalenthi Huge thanks to our sponsors and partners as well which this event wouldn’t have been possible without 💪 Autodesk NVIDIA City of Boston
