A free weekly newsletter
The right AI tools for local government, and how to use them.
You keep getting told to adopt AI, with no budget and no tech team to pull it off. Each week I pick one AI tool that fits a real task in your office, and show you how to use it. Straightforward, honest, and with no one trying to sell you anything.
Free. One email a week. Unsubscribe anytime. No spam, no sales pitch.
Bonus for subscribing: a free AI Use Policy Template for local government offices, ready to fill in and adopt.
One AI tool for a real task
Records requests, meeting minutes, permits, citizen questions. I name the tool that fits, often one already sitting in the software you pay for, with honest costs and whether it is even worth it.
How to actually use it
The plain steps to put it to work, usually starting with tools you already pay for. No jargon, no consultant required.
The Rulebook
A quick, sourced heads-up on the AI rules landing on local offices, like public records and use policies. The part that keeps you out of the newspaper.
Who should subscribe?
Anyone who wants to use readily available AI tools to make working in local government a little easier. No technical background required, and no big budget either.
