International students relocating to Savannah face information fragmentation and high-stakes uncertainty when selecting housing. Without local context, they must manually cross-reference SCAD’s decentralized academic buildings, public transit schedules, and safety data. This lack of a unified tool often results in students choosing locations that are unsafe, inaccessible, or over-budget, leading to significant arrival anxiety and logistical friction. SCADhood provides a centralized, trustworthy, and personalized guide to help students navigate the spatial relationship between their home, their major-related classes, and reliable transit routes.

I developed a no-code AI agent that automates the "neighborhood discovery" journey. The solution uses a centralized Data Hub to process user inputs and triggers parallel logic streams: mapping academic buildings by major, extracting safety scores from proprietary research, and fetching live transit schedules. The final output is a dynamic, scannable digital report that provides immediate, actionable clarity on a student's potential neighborhood.

SCADhood transforms hours of manual research into a 30-second automated experience. It provides students with spatial certainty, ensuring their home-to-class commute is viable whether they walk, bike, or use the Bee Line. By grounding recommendations in objective safety data and real-time Zillow listings, the tool empowers students to make informed financial and security decisions, significantly reducing the cognitive load of international relocation.

APPROACH
My approach focused on modular logic and data grounding:
Architecture: I designed a Linear-to-Parallel workflow in Google Opal to ensure data consistency.
Centralization: I built a Student Profile Doc as a "Single Source of Truth" to prevent variable drift across nodes.
Knowledge Integration: I integrated proprietary PDF research (safety) and live web assets (SCAD Bee Line) to ground AI responses in factual, local data.
Conditional Logic: I implemented transport-specific branching, allowing the agent to pivot between cycling, driving, and transit calculations based on user status.
