Answer applicants around the clock, an AI agent that explains the process and routes the request, and never approves, denies, or rules on a permit it can’t officially decide.
Someone wants to know what a permit requires, what it costs, and how long it takes. Fred answers the general questions, captures the application intent, and routes the office, while approvals, denials, and code calls go straight to staff for official review.
Built for state administrative-procedure and open-records law. Every determination stays with the right office.
Talk to Fred.
Server-side guardrails
Public trust runs on getting it right. A wrong eligibility call, a leaked record, or a missed emergency isn’t a bad review, it’s a liability for the agency and the resident. This is the compliance panel you manage in the admin: the industry pack automation, your own custom rules, and the hard limits Fred holds no matter how it’s asked. All of it is enforced on our servers before a word reaches the visitor. Not a suggestion in a prompt a clever question can talk around.

The boundaries Fred holds, no matter how a visitor asks.
Layered on top of the pack, unique to your agency. No developer required.
The pack is the starting line, not the ceiling. Every deployment can add its own rules in the admin, block, warn, or just log on any phrase you choose, in either phase, with your own response message. They run right alongside the pack.
These industry rules stack on top of the always-on baseline, FOIA, state open-records law, and federal handling rules for controlled information, and macro overlays. See how the guardrail layers work

Approvals, denials, and code calls require official review by the office with your file. Fred explains the process and routes you there. That boundary is enforced on our servers before Fred ever speaks, not suggested in a prompt a clever question can talk around.
