ABOUT TWINHOODS

Twinhoods (twinhoods.com) is a map that shows any city in the neighbourhood names
of a city you already know. It covers 180 cities and 4,004 neighbourhoods on six
continents, is free to use with no ads, accounts or tracking cookies, and grows
through Add my city, where the most-backed city joins the map at each departure.
Twinhoods is made by Kerem Özcan at Space Island Ltd, a small studio registered in
England and Wales.


KEY FACTS

- Status: launching soon at twinhoods.com, in English. Launch date to be announced.
- 180 cities in 78 countries; 4,004 neighbourhoods (14 to 34 per city).
- Each neighbourhood has 17 traits scored 0-100 (nightlife, creative, upscale,
  historic, waterside, LGBTQ+ and more) plus how central it is. Profiles are
  researched with AI help (Anthropic's Claude), validated and checked against
  OpenStreetMap.
- The whole map is matched at once: each name from your city is used once, and every
  pair gets a "% same vibe" score.
- Free. No ads, no accounts, no cookies, no third-party trackers. Runs in any browser.
- Add my city: back a city that isn't on the map yet with $5 to $1,000; at each
  departure (at least once a day) the most-backed city is added. Backers pay only if
  their city wins.
- Made by Kerem Özcan, Space Island Ltd (company no. 17270833, England and Wales).
