Introducing GeopoliticsSim: AI Meets Geopolitical Simulation

We're launching GeopoliticsSim — an AI-powered platform where you set geopolitical assumptions and watch quarterly projections unfold on an interactive 3D globe.

Today we are launching GeopoliticsSim — an AI-powered geopolitics simulator that lets you explore “what if” scenarios with real-world data and watch the consequences unfold quarter by quarter on an interactive 3D globe.

The Problem We’re Solving

Geopolitics is endlessly fascinating but impossibly complex. You can read all the analysis, follow all the experts, and still struggle to answer basic questions like: “What happens to European energy markets if the Strait of Hormuz closes?” or “How does a Chinese invasion of Taiwan cascade through global supply chains?”

These questions have no single right answer. But they can be explored systematically — and that is what GeopoliticsSim does.

How It Works

  1. Set your assumptions. Define what changes from today’s status quo — a military escalation, a trade embargo, a leadership change, a resource disruption.
  2. Choose your depth. Standard covers 48 major countries. Premium simulates all 195.
  3. Watch projections unfold. The AI generates quarterly projections, showing cascading effects across economic, military, and diplomatic domains.
  4. Explore on the globe. Every projection updates the interactive 3D map, letting you see shifts in alliances, trade flows, and resource control spatially.

What Powers It

Under the hood, GeopoliticsSim combines:

  • Claude AI (Anthropic) for multi-step geopolitical reasoning
  • Real-world data from World Bank, SIPRI, IISS, and FAS covering 48 countries and 73+ resource deposits
  • MapLibre + deck.gl for interactive 3D globe visualization
  • .NET 8 backend for robust API orchestration
  • Stripe for simple pay-as-you-go credit packs

Try It Free

Anonymous users get 3 free simulation steps — no signup required. Just set an assumption and see what happens. If you want to go deeper, credit packs start at $5.

We built this for anyone who has ever wondered “what happens next?” when reading about geopolitics. We hope you find it as fascinating to explore as we found it to build.
