AI-powered constituent communication

What is Civicore?

Civicore is a service that helps UK local councillors and MPs answer routine resident queries in under a minute. It uses artificial intelligence, trained on official council information, to send accurate replies by email or WhatsApp — freeing councillors to focus on the complex issues that truly need them.

This website explains how the service works, what it costs, and how councillors across the UK are already using it to serve their residents better.

Why Civicore exists

Councillors are overwhelmed with daily queries — often for information that is already publicly available. Limited time and staff make prompt replies difficult, and slow responses damage residents' trust in local public services. Civicore was built to solve exactly that.

What the service does

Four things, fully automated, on every routine query.

Receives resident queries

Residents submit their question through a short form and choose how they want to hear back — email or WhatsApp.

Finds the official answer

Civicore's AI searches official council sources to compose an accurate, reliable answer to the query.

Replies in seconds

The answer is formatted and delivered to the resident automatically — often within 30 seconds of submission.

Learns and reports

Residents rate each answer, can book a one-to-one with you, and you gain insight into the issues that matter most.
