Tianjin's 'City Brain' has given officials one dashboard over the city since May 2021 — policy payouts, elder services, ride-hailing oversight, dispute mediation, all on one screen. Every figure here is the platform's own account of itself.

The strongest source is the operator's or the city's own reporting — an official report, dataset or press release. It grades who did the looking — not how well the project went.

Tianjin's municipal 'City Brain' launched on 20 May 2021 at the 5th World Intelligence Congress, built and run by the Tianjin Municipal Big Data Management Center on a '1+5+N' structure: one overview screen of city operations, five thematic dashboards (city overview, economic development, government services, urban governance, public welfare), feeding 'N' application scenarios. Named deployed scenarios include direct-to-citizen and direct-to-farmer policy-benefit delivery, digital services for elderly residents, oversight of ride-hailing compliance, and mediation-dispute triage. Tianjin's own housing and urban-rural development commission cited the platform as a 'digital city excellence case' in a 2023 report. All facts here are the operator's own account; no independent evaluation of the platform's effect on service delivery was found.
