CurbPulse

CurbPulse is a mobile + web app that helps cities, NGOs, and neighborhood groups measure and prioritize urban ecosystem fixes—street trees, shade, permeable surfaces, and habitat corridors—using evidence instead of vibes. Residents and field staff capture quick “micro-audits” (tree canopy gaps, heat exposure, standing water, pollinator plants, litter hotspots) with GPS photos and short forms. The platform merges these observations with public layers (heat, impervious cover, flood risk, traffic) to produce a ranked, block-by-block action list and simple before/after reporting. It’s not a citizen-science toy: it’s designed to generate defensible outputs for grant applications, capital planning, and maintenance routing. The AI component auto-tags photos (tree health, trash, invasive plants) and flags low-quality submissions, reducing staff review time. Expect messy data and politics; the product wins by making decisions auditable and repeatable.
