The ground-truth audit for public consultations

Audit a public consultation in minutes. In depth.

Bring every submission, transcript, brief and citizen conversation. WiseWays reads each voice, maps what people see on the ground and draws the links between their concerns. You get the full picture and the written audit, ready for the council, the committee and the public.

If it's not obviously useful in the first 15 minutes, we'll say so ourselves.

Use it when

01

An urban plan, a bylaw or a budget goes to consultation and hundreds of submissions come back.

02

Public hearings and citizen conversations are recorded and still waiting to be read.

03

You want to open a question to residents and hear each of them, one at a time, through Sage.

What you get

The Constellation of the consultation and the Strategic Reading, with shared concerns, competing priorities, what drives what, and the questions that deserve a second look. Use it to brief decision makers and to report back to residents.

Why it goes deeper

Word clouds count words. WiseWays reads what people mean.

Survey tools tally answers. Sentiment tools score a mood. WiseWays reads every contribution as a person speaking: what they see, what they want, what blocks them, what they believe is possible. Then it draws the links. The result shows why residents feel the way they do and what connects one concern to another.

Every voice read. Every link drawn. The gaps named.

The findings reflect who contributed and what was provided. Participation, privacy and reporting terms are agreed with you before collection begins.

Tell us about the consultation you are preparing.

We scope the question, the participants and the material with you. Projects start at USD 295. Or bring up to five documents from a past consultation and get your first audit free.
