Municipalities pilot AI-driven road infrastructure platform

geoRoad.ai, an AI-driven road infrastructure platform, has announced it is running active pilot defect detection programmes across more than 20 road networks across the globe.

With a strong belief that safe roads are a fundamental right for every citizen, geoRoad.ai says it is on a mission to “democratise road safety technology” and make it accessible to cities and communities everywhere.

Overlooked contributors to traffic incidents

According to the platform, road hazards like potholes, cracks, water ponding, stray animals, and road debris are often overlooked contributors to traffic incidents, injuries, and fatalities. geoRoad.ai was developed to change that reality.

Using AI, edge computing, and real-time video and sensor analysis, the platform identifies road and traffic safety risks before they cause harm, enabling local authorities to take preventive action quickly and efficiently.

“Our goal is to make this technology inclusive and adaptable for every place that people walk, ride, or drive – from dense urban neighbourhoods to underserved rural roads”

The ongoing pilots, conducted in partnership with municipal agencies and infrastructure teams, aim to demonstrate geoRoad.ai’s ability to streamline hazard reporting, prioritise high-risk areas, and reduce the burden on City maintenance operations. By integrating seamlessly into existing systems, the platform empowers cities to shift from reactive to proactive safety management.

“We believe safer roads should not be a privilege of wealthier cities,” said Armi Majid, founder of geoRoad.ai. “Our goal is to make this technology inclusive and adaptable for every place that people walk, ride, or drive – from dense urban neighbourhoods to underserved rural roads.”
