Vienna Living Map answers the question that comes before the apartment search. A wish like “quiet, green, with a dog” — or a specific address — becomes a Living Score, an honest sense of place and the real light on the ground. Free, no account, no cookies.
This very map is walkable in the “Tech” tab of “Vienna in numbers” in the app — the whole system map with every detail →
People don’t think in “transit = 0.4”. They think in wishes. Emotion is the input, places are the output, data is the truth. The AI only translates — it never invents a score. The goal is one sentence: “That’s exactly how I’d have described it myself.”
One universal search understands addresses, housing wishes, rankings, budgets, similarity and proximity — without ever picking a mode.
Six dimensions, six perspectives. The same data, weighted differently through a family, urban or home-office lens.
The real surroundings of an address — actual building heights, trees, terrain; the sun moves, the shadows move with it.
“How it feels to live there” instead of “what’s there” — rhythm, light, people, the decision.
Up to four places (“who wins where”), a PDF exposé and a private housing diary — on your device only.
A Grätzl quiz, sausage stands, Beisl, Heurigen, cool living, “Vienna in numbers” — each with a real ranking.
No district is objectively the best. The score doesn’t say “good or bad” but who a place suits — depending on perspective. Every number opens up to its dimensions.
Eight axes capture a place’s character as a profile, not a category. From them come stories, moodboards and motion that really differ per Grätzl.
The opposite of real-estate marketing.
How do you build a useful city tool that needs no account, no cookies and no tracking profile — and can still show anonymous statistics? GDPR not as an obligation, but as a design principle.
One person, ~43,000 open data points, every Grätzl and every address scored — built on City of Vienna OGD, OpenStreetMap, GeoSphere and Statistics Austria. What’s possible with public knowledge.
Against the “AI does everything” trend: here the AI only translates language into weights and facts into prose. Ranking is deterministic, a gate rejects clichés. AI that disappears.
For numbers on a specific Grätzl, quotes or an exclusive early look: get in touch.
~15 build scripts + monthly cron jobs pull City of Vienna OGD, OpenStreetMap/Overpass, Wiener Linien, GeoSphere & Statistics Austria.
Six dimensions weighted per perspective — the same formula for address, Grätzl and district, frozen by golden tests.
Gemini turns wishes into weights and facts into prose — never rankings. A banned-words gate keeps the tone honest.
Golden tests, voice QA across the story corpus, a live smoke test and a weekly image self-healing.
Precompute instead of runtime AI wherever the space is finite: everything district × perspective is generated once and stored as a static file — consistent in the PDF and the comparison, with no running cost. Runtime AI runs only for the infinite (arbitrary addresses) and is cached.
Districts, parks, schools, doctors, tree cadastre, zoning, climate analysis.
Heurigen, dog zones, cafés, cycle routes, building heights, curated markets.
Stops & lines (GTFS).
Annual climate values + a visible warming trend.
House price index (price indexing).
