Practical AI tools that help staff draft, summarize, route, and respond—always with human oversight.

GovOwl adds practical AI tools directly into daily workflows so staff can work faster without changing how the agency operates. AI helps with summaries, drafting, categorizing, and answering routine questions, but every suggestion is optional and reviewed by staff before anything is sent or finalized. AI in GovOwl reduces repetitive work while keeping staff fully in control. It fits naturally into permitting, code enforcement, environmental health, 311, and customer service operations.
