Meetings and your municipal code
The Knowledge Base behind every answer — every public body's meeting history, agendas and minutes, plus your entire municipal code.
Files & Vault
Bring in your own documents
Your team's private workspace — upload and share files, connect SharePoint, OneDrive, or Laserfiche, and scope questions to just your Vault.
Drafting
From records to document
Describe the document you need — a memo, a resolution, a report — and Prophecy writes it straight from your records, cited and ready to export to Word.
Templates
Match your city's format
Upload a real document and Prophecy learns its structure and rules — then every draft matches your city's exact format, graded rule by rule.
Staff Report
From a prompt to a finished document
Two ways to a complete staff report — just ask, or use the guided form — with subject, background, fiscal impact, and recommendation written from the record.
Benchmarking
Compare other municipalities
Build a comparison table across cities, fill it with real cited figures from the record, keep extending it, and export to CSV or PDF.
Settings & Admin
Manage your workspace
The admin control center — invite people, organize groups, set roles and guardrails, and tune benchmark defaults for the whole municipality.
