Cities
Informed residents — without a newsroom.
Residents see this week’s meetings across council, commissions, and special districts — with links to the official agenda — while comment windows still matter. You pay; they stay free.
What do residents open — and what’s coming for staff?
The resident brief is what ships today: this week’s meetings they can finish in a few minutes, then open the official packet. A staff pulse — who’s meeting, what’s posted — is on the roadmap and not available yet.

Why do cities buy this?
Transparency residents can finish
Posting agendas isn’t enough if nobody finds them. You get a single, readable week view that points back to official packets.
The bodies residents actually live under
Special districts and commissions shape water, fire, and land use. Catchment coverage means you’re not only advertising your own meeting page.
Cited, not spun
Highlights link to the source. We don’t invent votes or dollar claims from agendas alone — so you aren’t stuck defending fiction.
| Signal | What “working” looks like |
|---|---|
| Week one | Staff can open the place site and see every confirmed body with an official agenda link |
| Month one | Residents (or subscribers) mention a hearing before it hits the paper |
| Ongoing | Broken agenda URLs get fixed in ops — the map doesn’t silently rot |
How do you go live?

Map the catchment
We start from a statewide starter set of boards and confirm your town’s sources by hand — an operator opens every agenda page and checks it points at the real meeting calendar, usually within two business days.

Weekly email, a place-branded subdomain, or both. Same facts either way.
