Infrared City

Homepage prototype — not the live site.

The climate intelligence layer for buildings and cities.

Fast metre‑resolution simulation for wind

3M+ simulations run 2,500+ accounts < 10 s small site, end to end Live in Vienna · Stuttgart · London

01 · What it is

Climate you can measure,
before anything is built.

We simulate the climate around and inside buildings — wind, heat, sun and daylight — at metre resolution, in seconds.

Below: real measured results over Wan Chai, Hong Kong. Pick a scale, then point anywhere — the number under the mark is the model's value at that spot.

Interior daylight · per floor
Daylight factor · 45 floors · 0.25 m grid

How much daylight actually reaches a desk on this floor, once the neighbours block the sky. Resolved floor by floor.

Buy the layer.
Don't build one.

Everyone else ships an application. We ship the capability — so a product, a practice or a city becomes climate-aware without hiring a simulation team.

Per-model studiesUnderway; a consolidated overview is in preparationIn progress

Screening-grade. Good enough to compare options and find problems — not a certified measurement. We say so because it is what makes the rest trustworthy.

Tiles run in parallel — a district costs barely more time than a single site. Timings are typical and vary with connection.

05 · Live

A whole city, updated through the day.

The layer answers street by street, 72 hours ahead — and with the what-if engine you plant trees and watch the answer change.
