From a question to a finished deliverable.

No GIS software and no layer panels. Ask the way you’d ask a colleague, and Thorn Street works out the data, the analysis and the map.

01 · ASK

Start with a question

“Which lots near UCSD can add an ADU?” “Plan my eight showings tomorrow.” Name a place or paste a list of addresses.

02 · ANALYZE

It finds the data and does the work

Zoning, parcels, hazard maps, transit and drive times, pulled from official public sources. Every step is logged, so you can check how it got there.

03 · DELIVER

Refine it, then hand it off

Follow up in plain words, like “start from home” or “leave my address out”. Walk away with a map, a spreadsheet, a GIS file or a printable PDF.

Built for explorers.

Keep a project going for the work you do every week, or ask a single question when you’re curious.

Curious about a place

THE MODEL
Leif

A model that understands space.

Most models can talk about a place. Leif can analyze it. It can tell you how far a property is from the nearest fire station, whether it sits in a flood or fire zone, what’s around it, and how it stacks up against others. Every answer links back to the records it came from, so you can check it yourself.
