This core offering supports various use cases such as urban planning, infrastructure management, and environmental monitoring. The company's products facilitate enhanced decision-making by integrating data from IoT devices, GIS systems, and other data sources to visualize city dynamics and improve resource allocation. Airlook serves a diverse client base, including government agencies, urban planners, and private enterprises across global markets such as North America, Europe, and parts of Asia, focusing on cities advancing their smart city initiatives. Their digital twin platform has been instrumental since its launch, addressing the critical need for advanced urban analytics and operational efficiency.

Airlook generates revenue primarily through a subscription-based model for its digital twin platform, providing clients with tiered access based on their specific needs and usage levels. Partnerships with municipal governments and urban developers facilitate large-scale implementations that can include both software licensing and ongoing support services. The business transactions typically involve contracts negotiated over multi-year terms, ensuring a steady stream of income. Flagship services include customized analytics packages designed for specific urban challenges, priced according to the complexity and scale of the deployment, allowing Airlook to cater to a wide range of clients, from small municipalities to large metropolitan areas, thus creating a diverse revenue portfolio without reliance on a single sector.

In January 2020, Airlook Aviation Technology (Beijing) Co. Ltd. raised CNY 100 million in Series B funding, which will be pivotal in supporting its growth strategy. Future plans include the launch of advanced product features for their digital twin platform by late 2023 and targeting expansion into Europe and Southeast Asia by the end of 2024.

The recent funding will be utilized for product development and market entry preparations in these new regions.
