TwinSight - affordable digital twin technology
Description
We empower small and mid-sized cities to become smarter, more responsive communities through AI-powered digital twins, interactive, data-driven models of the urban environment. By making smart city technology accessible to smaller towns, we also enable meaningful e-participation, giving residents a voice in shaping their city's future. Imagine you're the mayor of a small or mid-sized town—tasked with decisions on mobility, energy infrastructure, or climate resilience.But instead of cutting-edge tools, you’re left with spreadsheets, guesswork, or political pressure. That’s the reality for thousands of local governments today. Meanwhile, smart city platforms do exist—but they’re built for megacities. They’re too complex, too expensive, and too disconnected from the needs of smaller communities. And yet, these towns face real, urgent problems without the tools to model what’s coming. That’s the gap. And that’s the opportunity: to give smaller municipalities access to the kind of data-driven decision-making power they’ve never had before, and help them catch up with the larger cities. This is where TwinSight comes in. It’s a modular, cloud-based digital twin platform designed specifically for small and mid-sized municipalities.
We use real-time and historic data and AI to simulate future scenarios of real world policies. Local governments can now test policy ideas before they commit. Want to try out a bus lane? A new zoning rule?They can simulate it first—with real data—before spending real money. PolicyCraft is an interactive ‘what-if’ simulation tool that invites not just officials, but citizens, into the decision-making process. It’s like SimCity—but for real towns. It drives transparency, trust, and better decisions—through collaborative scenario planning and e-participation. It is easy to deploy and we also offer IoT sensors installation in the towns. But the vision goes beyond software and sensors. We want to empower every small city in Europe—and beyond—to make smarter, more resilient, and more inclusive decisions. TwinSight brings the digital twin revolution to the communities that need it most. Let’s make smart cities truly accessible—for everyone, everywhere.“ our product is scalable across hundreds of small towns. Enhancing e-government and e-participation options for small towns. Improving civic trust through e-participatory scenario planning.
The TAM (Total Addressable Market) are all small sized cities across Europe, aroun d8000, the SAM (Serviceable Available Market) are the cities and towns with interest in digital twin solutions, around 80% of the TAM, so 6.400. The Service obtainable Market (SOM) is the initial pilot region in Austira, the province of Lower Austria with around 3500 small cities.
Our idea is scalable, customizable and budget-friendly for small cities. Bases on a quarterly subscription pricing model, based on city size and modules accquired. For example, one module is transport, another is energy, another is disaster management, etc.
While most smart city platforms are built top-down for megacities, TwinSight flips the model—offering a bottom-up, tailored approach for the long-overlooked majority: small and mid-sized municipalities. We uniquely combine modular AI-powered digital twins with participatory scenario planning, empowering both decision-makers and citizens. Unlike one-size-fits-all systems, our solution is scalable, cost-efficient, and designed specifically for local contexts. No other platform offers this blend of technical sophistication, ease of deployment, and community engagement at a price point accessible to smaller towns. TwinSight doesn’t just bring smart city tools to smaller communities—it redefines how they plan, decide, and grow.
