Madinah Smart City Platform & AI Assistant
01

Context

2 points

I led the architecture of the Madinah smart city platform as Solutions Engineering Manager, and designed an AI visitor assistant built on AWS Bedrock.

  • Madinah receives millions of visitors each year, which calls for a smart technical architecture to improve their experience and manage urban services.
  • The Madinah Region Development Authority led the initiative to build an integrated smart city platform.

The Challenge

2 points
  • Building a smart city platform serving multiple areas: urban governance, visitor experience and operational services.
  • Designing a reliable AI assistant that gives visitors accurate information across multiple languages and contexts.
03

Impact & Results

2 points
  • An integrated smart city platform supporting the authority's operations and the visitor experience.
  • An AI assistant built on AWS Bedrock serving visitors directly as part of the platform.

A practical example of how AI can serve a real urban experience, rather than remaining an experimental tool disconnected from user needs.
