Cognata Smart Cities is a digital twin and traffic simulation platform that models urban environments for municipal planning and road safety analysis. It uses AI-driven traffic agents to generate scenarios involving vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and static objects, supporting Vision Zero programs that examine accident rates, safety distances, and occlusion. Users can explore the resulting three-dimensional environment from static, driving, or aerial viewpoints and integrate outputs with external systems through open standards such as OpenDrive and OpenScenario. The platform draws on the same simulation engine Cognata applies to its automotive and defense product lines.

Streetmix is a web-based platform for designing cross-sections of city streets. Users drag and drop segment components such as bike lanes, sidewalks, parking, and transit lanes to build a street layout and view changes in real time. The core application is free and open to the public, while a paid Streetmix+ tier adds renamed segments, custom environmental backgrounds, additional vehicle types, and watermark-free, print-resolution image exports. City planners, transportation agencies, and consulting firms use the tool to create and share street redesign proposals.

Cubic Synchro Studio is a Windows desktop software package for designing, modeling, optimizing, and simulating traffic signals, corridors, and networks. It combines Synchro, a macroscopic analysis and optimization tool, with SimTraffic, a microscopic simulation application, and supports optional add-on modules for 3D visualization and MUTCD signal warrant analysis. The software applies multiple analysis methods including Highway Capacity Manual 7th Edition, 6th Edition, and 2010 standards, and can import trip-generation data from ITE's TripGen tool. It also integrates with ATMS Central Transportation Management Software and is used by municipal traffic departments, state transportation agencies, and engineering consultancies.
