Public Media Network is proud to be featured in a new case study by TelVue showcasing how we are using their SmartCaption™ AI technology to strengthen civic engagement and make government more accessible for everyone in Kalamazoo.
With SmartCaption™ AI, we’re able to automatically caption government meetings, create searchable transcripts, generate chapter points, and even summarize meetings — all with the goal of saving time and making information easier for the public to find.
“People no longer have to sit through a multiple-hour hearing or meeting. They can quickly find the part that matters to them.”
This innovation is helping:
- Community members find the topics they care about faster
- Reporters locate specific public comments or votes in seconds
- Municipal clerks save hours on documentation
- Residents with hearing needs fully access local government meetings
At Public Media Network, our mission is to increase access to local information and empower residents to participate in their democracy. This technology is another way we’re helping make that happen.
