City Answers · Smart Answers AIAI

Residents get an answer before your office opens.

Trash day, permit requirements, meeting times: answered instantly, in the resident's language, with a citation.

City Answers is an AI assistant that answers resident questions from your city's own information: your website, uploaded documents and connected drives. Every answer carries a citation so residents and staff can see where it came from. When it cannot answer with confidence, it routes the question to the right person instead of guessing.

Residents ask in plain words and get an answer from the city's own content.

01

Answers your city already wrote down, found instantly

City Answers reads your website, ordinances, permit guides and any documents or drives you point it at, then answers in plain language with a link back to the source. It does not guess: a coverage scorecard shows staff which questions it can and cannot answer yet.

✓
Answers from your website and documents: not a general chatbot guessing at city policy
✓
A citation on every answer: residents and staff can check the source
✓
Coverage scorecard: shows what residents ask that your content does not answer yet
✓
Escalation routing: unanswered questions go to the right staff, not a dead end
02

On your website and in the app, in their language

The same assistant answers on your city website, in an embedded widget and in the city app. The answer arrives in the language the resident uses, not only a translated search result.

✓
Embeddable on your city website: answers where residents already look first
✓
In the city app: the same answers, the same citations
✓
250+ languages: the answer itself, not just the search box
✓
Staff stay in the loop: escalation and coverage reporting, not a black box

City Answers is Bloomz AI answering from your own content.
It answers only from the sources you connect, cites each answer, and sends what it cannot answer to staff. You decide what it can see, and a coverage scorecard shows what residents ask that your content does not cover yet.
Questions we hear

Common questions

Where do the answers come from?

Only from the sources you connect: your website, uploaded documents and connected drives. Each answer cites its source.

What happens when it does not know?

It does not guess. The question routes to the right staff member, and the coverage scorecard records the gap so you can add the missing content.

Can staff review what residents ask?

Yes. The coverage scorecard shows what residents ask and whether your content answers it.
