Problem Statement 

A mid-sized American municipality faced a critical obstacle: essential public documents—such as zoning codes, infrastructure guidelines, and development standards—were buried inside hundreds of pages of dense PDFs. This made it difficult for staff, residents, and developers to access the information they needed, leading to:

  • Long response times for routine inquiries consume staff bandwidth.
  • Frustrated citizens and builders who couldn’t easily interpret legal and technical jargon.
  • Inconsistent answers, risking misinterpretation of vital regulations.
  • Barriers to development, slowing down permitting, and discouraging potential investment.

In essence, the municipality didn’t lack transparency—it lacked accessible transparency.

Our Solution

We built an AI-powered CX Agent designed specifically for local government—transforming complex municipal documents into an interactive, on-demand knowledge source.

Intelligent Document Ingestion
  • The CX Agent ingests and processes city documents such as municipal codes, policy manuals, and compliance guidelines—breaking down even lengthy, technical texts into structured, searchable knowledge.
Contextual, Source-Linked Responses
  • Instead of vague summaries, the agent delivers precise, source-linked answers enriched with tables, diagrams, or direct clause references—ensuring every response is backed by original documentation.
Inclusive Access for Staff & Citizens
  • Whether it’s a resident checking fence height restrictions or a developer verifying stormwater drainage standards, the agent supports both public queries and staff workflows through simple, natural-language interaction.
Always On, Always Accurate
  • Operating 24/7, the system provides consistent, compliant, and reliable answers—reducing staff workload while improving transparency and service delivery.

Results We Delivered

The transformation was immediate and measurable:

  • Response times dropped from hours to seconds for information retrieval.
  • City staff productivity improved, freeing up time for strategic planning and complex decision-making.
  • Developers and businesses gained clarity on local regulations—accelerating permit timelines and boosting confidence in working with the city.
  • Citizens gained self-service access to key policies and standards—improving transparency and engagement.
  • Accuracy and consistency are guaranteed, as the agent pulls directly from official, approved documents.
