What is Visita Intelligence?

Visita is a Civic Intelligence Platform that provides ward-based intelligence, community engagement tools, and business directory services. Unlike social networks that optimize for engagement, Visita optimizes for awareness and participation in local civic matters.

​
Core Philosophy

Visita is NOT a social network. We are a civic intelligence platform that:
  • Optimizes for awareness, not engagement
  • Sells intelligence tools, not user attention
  • Builds critical infrastructure, not features that “move fast and break things”

​
The “Civic Window” Metaphor

The interface is a window into the user’s physical reality:
  • Input: “Where am I?” (Location)
  • Output: “What is happening?” (Intelligence)
  • Action: “How can I help?” (Participation)
