Know your neighborhood
before you sign.
PickYourPlace helps homebuyers and real estate agents make smarter decisions with verified municipal data — property assessments, crime statistics, school access, and demographics — in Calgary, Vancouver, and Edmonton.
Built from experience.
The idea for PickYourPlace started in 2018 when co-founders were searching for a new home. Most real estate platforms focused on what was inside a property — bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage. But what mattered most was the surroundings: how safe is the neighborhood, how close are the schools, how accessible is transit.
A working prototype won recognition at an AWS-sponsored hackathon, with one commenter calling it "MVP of the year." After user interviews, a full technology rebuild, and months of late nights, version 1.0 launched in October 2024 covering Calgary. Vancouver followed shortly after.
Today, PickYourPlace combines AI-powered analysis with verified municipal data to give homebuyers and agents a complete picture of any neighborhood — not just the listing.
