Founder Testimonial: Dr. Nazri Bajuri, Co-founder & CTO of CitySage | Founder & CEO of Enburj

Turning a Bold Vision into a Groundbreaking Venture

When CitySage was just a bold idea scribbled on a whiteboard, Enburj stepped in—not just as a consultant, but as a co-architect of its future. At the intersection of AI, urban planning, and intelligent automation, CitySage had the potential to revolutionize how cities are planned, governed, and evolved.

But potential means nothing without the right execution. That’s where we came in.

As the founder of both Enburj and CitySage, Dr. Nazri Bajuri had a rare advantage: a deep well of strategic clarity and technical foresight. Through Enburj, he mobilized a team of AI engineers, startup specialists, and systems thinkers to transform CitySage from concept to category creator.

The Mission: Empower Human + AI Collaboration for Smarter & WISER Cities

CitySage was designed with a singular mission: to unlock the full potential of urban intelligence by combining deep data with digital agents that work alongside urban planners, policymakers, and architects. The platform aimed to be more than a dashboard—it aspired to be a full-stack AI-powered SaaS ecosystem built for thinking & feeling cities.

But the real magic was in its architecture:

A federated system of AI agents, each with domain expertise—planning, policy, resilience, economics—collaborating in a seamless, human-first UI.

Enburj’s Contributions: From 0 to Scalable AI-First Company

Enburj's approach to startup enablement is unlike any other—we don't just advise, we build. Here's how we accelerated CitySage's rise:

✅ AI System Blueprinting - We designed the AI multi-agent architecture, integrating Responsible, Causal, Predictive, Generative, and Agentic AI into a coherent product roadmap.

✅ Technical Co-Founding & CTO-as-a-Service - Enburj provided CitySage with full-stack CTO support—product strategy, data stack design, partnership with governments and privates, and agile delivery pipelines—so the founding team could move fast without technical and connection bottlenecks.

✅ Product-Led GTM & Ecosystem Thinking - We infused a product-led growth strategy anchored in real urban challenges—turning each client use case into a scalable solution module.

✅ Agent Persona Engineering - We helped shape each AI agent—C-Siti (Urban Planner), C-Ruma (Policy), C-Kimi (Data), C-Nazri (Agentic AI consultant) and more —so they reflect deep expertise and intuitive UX.

✅ Scalable Stack Choices - From prototyping to deploying MVPs, we matched agility with enterprise-grade scalability.
