NoiseScout

NoiseScout is a mobile + web app (traditional app with light AI) that helps homebuyers screen neighborhoods using real-world “livability signals” that listings rarely show. It aggregates public and commercial datasets (traffic volume, flight paths, rail lines, 311 noise complaints, crime, construction permits, nightlife density, school calendars) and turns them into a simple map-based score and timeline. Users can set deal-breaker thresholds (e.g., “no flight path,” “quiet after 10pm,” “low construction risk”) and get alerts when a saved listing violates them. A lightweight AI layer summarizes what’s driving a score (“expect weekend bar noise on this block; major road 200m away”) and generates questions to ask during showings. The goal isn’t to replace Zillow/Redfin—it’s to prevent wasted tours and regret by exposing hidden negatives early.
