CitiesAI turns images of streets into data for businesses making decisions about locations and outdoor advertising. Based in Warsaw, Poland, the company says it collects and processes daily views of the city to provide information about pedestrian flows, venue locations and billboard visibility.1
Its services include pedestrian-traffic analysis, heatmaps with movement and demographic measurements, and monitoring of outdoor advertising campaigns. The company says its data can be broken down by hour, day of the week and season, and that it collects 15 million images a month, with city data updated daily.1 CitiesAI also describes a method for measuring foot traffic along pavement sections as short as 30 metres, distinguishing between the left and right sides.1
The company’s founders are Piotr Ejdys, Kamil Adamczyk and Krzysztof Krygiel, who, according to CitiesAI, previously worked at research company Gemius.1 LinkedIn lists CitiesAI as founded in 2019 and gives its headquarters as Warsaw.2 The company’s stated international experience among its founders and a LinkedIn profile describing work on digital representations of 100 cities suggest ambitions beyond its home market, though the available sources do not establish the current geographic coverage of its services.16
CitiesAI cites Empik and Pasibus among its customers. Empik says it uses the company’s data to assess store-location attractiveness and pedestrian traffic; Pasibus describes using historical and location-level traffic data to compare sites for expansion.1 These examples show the company’s focus on commercial location planning rather than municipal digital services.
