About this app

HeyCity is an independent service. It does not represent any government entity and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or an official communication channel of any city, agency, or school district.

All government information in HeyCity is summarized from the public meeting records (agendas, minutes, meeting recordings, and public notices) published by the governments listed below on their official websites and channels. These are the only sources of government information in this app.

The decisions that shape your neighborhood are buried in 200-page agendas and 3-hour meetings. HeyCity reads them so you don't have to. HeyCity turns the public meetings of the governments listed above (city council, planning commission, city commissions, and school board) into clear, scannable summaries, ranked by how much they matter to your community.

WHAT YOU GET
• A feed of plain-language summaries from every covered meeting, sorted by date or by news rank
• Deep dives on the biggest stories: the background, the stakes, and what happens next
• Topics that matter to you: budget, housing, schools, safety, environment, infrastructure
• Bookmarks, a calendar view, and search across everything we've covered
• A bi-weekly AI-hosted podcast recapping the top stories in your city

HOW IT WORKS
HeyCity runs an automated pipeline powered by large language models. It ingests the agendas, minutes, recordings, and notices published by the official sources listed above, then writes summaries that are automatically checked against those same records before and after publication. Every summary carries an AI mark, links back to the official record, and includes a one-tap way to report an error. Verified corrections are re-published with a versioned record of what changed.

THE FINE PRINT
HeyCity is not a government entity. Summaries are AI-generated and are a starting point for awareness, not an official record. For any decision that matters, verify against the official agendas, minutes, and recordings published by the sources listed above.
