We Build a Council Accountability Dashboard for Your City — and It Wins You Votes

We take your city's entire council meeting archive and turn it into a custom-built, AI-powered dashboard — a public accountability tool citizens can use to hold council accountable, and a canvasser weapon your campaign team uses to win conversations at the door or on the phone.

Custom-built for your city • Public tool + campaign weapon • Free pilot

Two Tools. One Dashboard. Built for Your City.

Your city's council meeting records are public — but nobody can actually search them. We change that. We build a custom dashboard for your municipality that does two things at once:

For the public: A transparency tool where any citizen, journalist, or business can search every vote, every motion, every council discussion — with source citations. It holds council accountable. It positions you as the candidate who believes in open government.

For your campaign: The same data becomes a mobile canvasser weapon. Your volunteers type a question at the door (or on the phone), get a sourced answer in seconds, and share it with the voter on the spot.

The public gets accountability. Your campaign gets votes. Same dashboard.

One Custom Dashboard. Two Powerful Uses.

We build a single AI-powered dashboard from your city's council meeting records. You decide how to deploy it — as a public accountability tool, a private campaign weapon, or both.

Public Accountability

Civic Transparency Portal

Launch a public website where any citizen can search your city's entire council meeting history. You're the candidate who gave the public a tool to hold council accountable — that's a message that wins.

  • Full archive of council meeting minutes searchable by topic
  • AI-powered plain-English search with source citations
  • Councillor voting records and meeting summaries
  • Hosted on your campaign domain or a custom URL
  • Auto-updated weekly as new meetings are published
  • Positions your campaign as the transparency candidate

  • Share sourced answers by email or text directly to voters
  • Voice search for walking between houses
  • No app to install — works in any mobile browser

What Your Custom Dashboard Includes

Plain-English Council Meeting Search

Type any question — "property taxes 2024," "Councillor Smith on transit," "arena budget" — and get an instant AI-powered answer backed by actual council meeting minutes. Not opinions. Not news articles. The actual records.

Councillor Voting Profiles

Every motion moved, every vote taken, who they vote with, who they vote against. For incumbents, it's a highlight reel of council decisions. For challengers, it's instant opposition research from the public record.

Share Council Records Instantly

Copy, email, and text buttons on every search result. Send a voter the full history of council decisions on any issue — with citations — right from your phone.

Works on Any Device

Any phone, any browser. No app to install. No login required. Voice search for hands-free use. Loads fast even on spotty cell coverage in suburban neighborhoods.

Source Citations on Every Answer

RAG-first architecture means every answer is grounded in actual council meeting records. Every search result links to the specific meeting, date, and document. No AI hallucination.

Always Current — Updated Weekly

Our auto-updater pulls in new council meetings weekly. Last Tuesday's council meeting is searchable by Wednesday. Your archive is never stale.

Frequently Asked Questions About Council Meeting Search

How do I search city council meeting minutes?

Just type a plain-English question into the search bar — like "housing development approvals" or "Councillor Smith on transit" — and get an instant answer with citations from the actual council meeting minutes. No boolean operators, no filters, no training required.

Can you build a search engine for any city's council meetings?

Yes. We can index council meeting records for any municipality in North America that publishes meeting minutes publicly. We've worked with cities of all sizes — from small towns to major metros. If the records exist online, we can make them searchable.

How accurate is the AI-powered council meeting search?

Every answer includes source citations pointing to the exact council meeting, date, and document. Our RAG-first architecture means the AI only returns information grounded in actual records — it cannot make things up. We still recommend verifying critical information against original documents.

What is the difference between the public accountability portal and the campaign canvasser tool?

They're two uses of the same custom-built dashboard. The public portal is a website where any citizen can search council meeting records — it positions your campaign as the transparency candidate. The canvasser tool is a mobile-optimized version of the same data, designed for volunteers going door to door with share buttons, voice search, and councillor voting profiles.

How much does a custom council meeting dashboard cost?

$1,000 flat rate for most cities. I'll show you some demos first. Pay only after a) we're sure the job can be done smoothly AND b) we've completed 50% of the job. Tell us your city and we'll look into it asap.

Can I host the dashboard on my own domain?

Yes. Your custom dashboard can live on your campaign domain, a custom URL, or be embedded into an existing website. We handle all the technical setup. It's your tool — branded however you want.

How far back do the council meeting records go?

As far as the records exist online. Many municipalities have digitized meeting minutes going back 10-20 years or more. We ingest everything available — meeting minutes, staff reports, bylaws, and attached documents.

Your Opponent Doesn't Have This Yet

Every municipality is sitting on the same pile of public data — thousands of meetings, tens of thousands of documents. We turn yours into a custom-built accountability dashboard the public can use and a campaign weapon your canvassers take to every voter. Your opponent hasn't thought of this. You just did.
