About City Transcripts
Making local government accessible through technology. Built by the team at Recap Innovations.
Our mission
Local government decisions shape our neighborhoods, schools, and daily lives. But most residents don't have time to watch 4-hour council meetings. City staff shouldn't have to choose between accessibility and efficiency.
City Transcripts exists to make every public meeting searchable, summarized, and accessible to everyone. We believe that when civic information is easy to find, more people participate in local democracy.

What we believe
Transparency by default
Public meetings should be easy to access. We make content public by default, not hidden behind logins.
Accessibility for everyone
Captions, transcripts, and audio descriptions aren't optional. Every resident deserves equal access to civic information.
Simple for cities
Government workflows are complex enough. We handle the technology so staff can focus on their communities.
Privacy and security
We process public meetings only. We don't track residents, sell data, or show ads.
