Address-level intelligence
We don't estimate. We pull permits, parse complaints, model traffic routes, and measure noise — then score the things that actually affect your daily life.
Traffic
Rush-hour friction on your actual routes, not city averages.
Median commute 24 min. But 38 min one day in five.
Noise
Venue density, late-night activity windows, and the quiet blocks between them.
Low weeknights. Spikes Friday–Saturday from 3 venues within 200m.
Transit
Walk time to stops, line reliability, and real coverage — not just ‘near BART.’
4 stops within 10 min walk. BART + Muni. 96% on-time weekdays.
Construction
Active building permits within earshot. How long, how disruptive.
2 active permits within 500m. Estimated 8 months remaining.
Amenities
Places you’d actually use, weighted by what you care about, within walking distance.
Grocery 4 min walk. Gym 7 min. 3 parks under half a mile.
See the things you'd only discover six months after moving in. Noise patterns, commute volatility, hidden construction, block-level safety. All before you sign.
