Rebuilding US infrastructure smarter and stronger
CEO Daniel Pelaez on how more accurate data combined with AI can help transform the built environment — and make the largest infrastructure investment cycle in seventy years count.

Daniel Pelaez, Co-Founder & CEO at CYVL, explains how more accurate data combined with AI can help transform the built environment in the US and beyond.
The United States is in the middle of the largest infrastructure investment cycle in seventy years. With more than one trillion dollars in federal funds flowing into roads, bridges, and transit, there is unprecedented potential to rebuild the systems that connect our communities. But scale alone will not guarantee success. The real challenge for cities and towns is ensuring that every dollar goes as far as possible — and that this historic investment leaves a lasting impact.
