SmartCity
Connected services, mobility and IoT platforms that make city services faster and more accessible.Akkurat Softwarehouse builds smart city software — connected services, mobility platforms and citizen apps — for public agencies, operators and startups in Atlanta, Georgia and beyond. A smart city is not about gadgets; it is about using data and connected systems to make daily life smoother: getting people where they need to go, delivering public services without the friction of paperwork, and giving decision-makers a clear view of what is happening in real time.
Atlanta is a natural home for this work — a major metro with real mobility, transit and infrastructure challenges, and a strong technology and research community working to solve them. We help turn that opportunity into working software that citizens actually use.
Smart city solutions we build
- Citizen apps that put services, information and requests in residents’ pockets instead of in line at an office.
- Mobility and transit platforms — routing, schedules, real-time tracking and multi-modal trip planning.
- IoT dashboards that collect and visualize data from sensors and connected devices across the city.
- Service and operations portals for agencies and operators to manage requests, assets and teams.
- Data platforms that turn raw signals into insight leaders can act on.
Built for scale and reliability
Public-facing systems have to work for everyone, on any device, at any hour — including for residents on older phones and slower connections. We build smart city software to be accessible, resilient and available, with architecture that handles thousands of concurrent users and streams of device data without slowing down. Reliability is not a feature here; it is the baseline expectation of anything a city depends on.
Our process
1. Discovery & stakeholders
We map the problem, the people it affects and the agencies or operators involved, so the software serves real needs rather than assumptions.
2. Prototype
We prototype the citizen and operator experience early and test it with real scenarios, because public software has to be usable by everyone, not just the tech-savvy.
3. Agile development
We build in sprints with working increments, so stakeholders can see and steer progress every two weeks.
4. Integration, testing & rollout
We connect the sensors, data sources and existing systems, test under realistic load, and roll out carefully with monitoring in place.
5. Operation & growth
We monitor and maintain the platform and extend it as new services and data sources come online.
Technology we work with
We work with IoT data pipelines, real-time messaging, mapping and geolocation, and cloud infrastructure that scales with demand. Native and cross-platform mobile apps give citizens a fast, accessible experience, while robust back-end services ingest device data, expose secure APIs, and power dashboards for operators. We build with privacy, security and open standards in mind, so systems can interoperate rather than becoming isolated silos.
Why choose Akkurat in Atlanta
You get a team that understands both the technology and the reality of building software the public relies on, working in a metro that lives these mobility and infrastructure challenges every day. Communication is clear and in English, with senior engineers and one point of contact. You own the code and infrastructure, and you get a predictable plan because we scope the integrations and reliability work before we build.
Frequently asked questions
What kinds of smart city software do you build?
Citizen service apps, mobility and transit platforms, IoT dashboards, operator portals and data platforms — the connected systems that make city services faster and give leaders real-time visibility.
Can you integrate with sensors and existing city systems?
Yes. We build data pipelines that ingest signals from sensors and connected devices and integrate with the systems agencies and operators already use, through secure APIs and open standards.
How do you make public software accessible to everyone?
We design for accessibility and for real-world devices and connections, test with realistic scenarios, and build resilient systems that stay available and usable for every resident, not just newer phones.
Do you work with public agencies and private operators?
Yes. We work with public agencies, private operators and startups building for the public sector, and we shape the process around the stakeholders involved in each project.
Will we own the platform?
Yes. You own the source code and control the infrastructure. We hand everything over and can continue to operate, maintain and extend the platform as it grows.
