FAQs

Got questions? We’re here to help.

How does PublicInput help us reach underserved or hard-to-reach communities?

PublicInput makes it easy to connect with more people through multilingual surveys, mobile-friendly tools, and outreach by text, phone, or email. You can even overlay Census data to identify who you're missing and adjust your outreach in real time.

Can PublicInput support both virtual and in-person engagement?

Yes. You can host live virtual meetings with captioning and translation, set up hybrid events, and collect in-person feedback with digital forms and QR codes all in one platform.

How does the platform help me track who’s engaging and identify gaps?

Every interaction is logged and can be linked to demographic insights. You’ll see who’s participating by location, race, income, and more so you can compare feedback to Census data and make engagement more representative.

What kinds of projects or departments is PublicInput best suited for?

PublicInput is built for teams across government from long-range planning and capital projects to transportation, public health, and communications. You can use it for one project or scale it city- or agency-wide.

How does PublicInput integrate with our existing tools and workflows?

You can export data in multiple formats and integrate with the tools you already rely on. We integrate with leading Content Management Systems like CivicPlus, Granicus, and Revize, as well as GIS platforms like ESRI.  Our no-code integration option connects to over 1,000 external platforms and can automate connections with your agenda management, planning, permitting, and parks & recreation tools as part of your implementation.
