General information

Company profile

UrbView is a pioneering AI platform based in Hamburg / Germany that makes safety in cities measurable and visible—before incidents occur. We are the only company in Europe that combines safety intelligence, crime data, and urban design insights to assess and improve both perceived and actual security in public spaces. By analyzing over 15 environmental layers—from lighting and visibility to connectivity and usage patterns—UrbView delivers data-driven recommendations for safer, smarter, and more inclusive urban planning. Our technology supports city planners, architects, transport operators, and real estate developers in designing environments that proactively reduce risk, enhance public confidence and encourage vibrant, everyday use. By improving both real and perceived safety, UrbView helps transform urban spaces into more livable, welcoming, and accessible environments.

Products & Services

UrbView is an AI-powered analytics platform that helps cities and developers design safer public spaces by detecting potential safety risks before they become incidents. Our software integrates and analyzes more than 15 layers of urban quality parameters —including lighting, crime data, visibility, mobility patterns, and infrastructure—to assess both objective and perceived safety.
UrbView delivers visual risk maps, safety scores, and actionable planning recommendations that can be used in early-stage planning, redesign projects, or policy development. Clients receive interactive dashboards, GIS exports, and custom reports tailored to specific sites or planning zones.
The platform is scalable and modular—usable as a standalone tool or integrated with existing planning systems (e.g., GIS tools, digital twins, MaaS platforms). Our API allows partners to embed UrbView intelligence into their own products, making safety a core element of urban innovation.
