This AI system scores residential buildings in New York City on their likelihood of tenant harassment or landlord-related hardship. Scores are used by outreach workers to decide which buildings to visit proactively and which to connect to tenant-organizing programs. The system ranks buildings — it does not directly determine any benefit or penalty — but the selection it drives shapes who receives proactive help.
