What it is
CivicCA is board and meeting management software for government agencies. It covers agenda preparation, live meeting operations and voting, minutes, public portals, and open-meeting compliance. The agenda builder provides drag-and-drop sections and items, automatic numbering, packet creation, autosave, and keyboard shortcuts. During meetings, a clerk-controlled console manages navigation, votes, motions, public speakers, and records; members can vote from tablets and use session links for remote voting and conflict declarations. Public speaker registration and eComment are also available. CivicCA can draft minutes from transcripts with speaker attribution and recorded votes for clerk review. Its AI features include summarization, plain-language rewriting, conversational Q&A, and transcription with speaker diarization. The maker says it checks 51 state and local open-meeting frameworks when agendas are published. Integrations include Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Laserfiche, YouTube, SentraCheck, and Municode. CivicCA says customer data is hosted in US AWS regions and encrypted at rest; pricing is quoted per agency rather than published. A 14-day trial is available, with no free plan.
