"Cities are alive - they speak through their people, their architecture, their stories."
citypal exists to give those voices a stage. We're building an AI that listens, learns, and guides with empathy. We believe technology should make the world feel closer, not farther apart. Every street has a story. Every question deserves an answer. Every walk should be an adventure.
