Civilio transforms public meeting videos and documents into searchable, verifiable data, so you can instantly track issues across all levels of government. Civilio’s civic intelligence database was designed by journalists for data transparency, accuracy, and verification. All outputs have been independently benchmarked by data scientists at the University of Virginia, with all claims linked directly to source data for quick validation. 

Today, Civilio supports newsrooms, universities, researchers, and civic organizations working to expand public visibility into government decision-making and strengthen local accountability.

Key platform features: 

• Vote, public comment, and financial analysis
• In-text citations link all claims to transcript timestamps and/or document page numbers.
• Subscribe to pre- and post-meeting alerts by topic or location 
• Quarterly research consultations provide editorial insight and analysis
