Welcome to Cittopia
Cittopia is a platform that turns cities into measurable, comparable, knowable instruments of collective progress — a free public atlas for citizens, and a paid SaaS for the municipalities that run them.
What is Cittopia? #
Cittopia is two things at once. For citizens, it is a free, beautifully designed open atlas of cities — population, transport, environment, education, jobs and quality of life — drawn from open municipal data and Eurostat's Urban Audit. For municipalities, it is a SaaS dashboard that turns those same metrics into action: AI-driven sister-city matchmaking, the Pulse (CityPulse) score, district lenses and project boards.
Why this existsMost "smart city" platforms either lock data behind enterprise paywalls or reduce cities to dashboards no citizen can read. Cittopia keeps the data public and the tools sharp — a knowable city, not a smart one.
