Gilytics

Gilytics provides a 3D visualization and geospatial planning platform called Pathfinder, designed to automate infrastructure planning, routing, and monitoring for energy transmission, power utilities, and transportation projects. The SaaS platform enables engineering teams to design optimal routes for power lines, pipelines, and other linear infrastructure by integrating geospatial data, satellite imagery, LiDAR, and drone images with technical, environmental, socio-economic, and regulatory parameters. Pathfinder supports feasibility studies, cost estimation, and stakeholder engagement through interactive 3D visualizations and collaborative tools. The platform delivers results in minutes rather than weeks or months, saving over 50 percent on project management time and costs. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, Gilytics has raised approximately $1.2 million in funding from investors including Europa, EIC Fund, Venture Kick, HTGF, Swiss Ventures Group, Zurcher Kantonalbank, ESA Business Incubation Centre Switzerland, AIT Startups, Serpentine Ventures, and Free Electrons. The company's clients include major transmission system operators and engineering firms such as Axpo Grid, TenneT, Swissgrid, Elia Group, SBB, and Arcadis, who use Pathfinder to accelerate planning processes and improve public acceptance of infrastructure projects.
