Network and workflow building
Model parties, parliaments, committees, and mandates as living workflows.
Polity makes complex organizational structures visible and manageable. Users can understand who may propose, who reviews, where decisions happen, and how a mandate moves from a party branch into parliamentary work.
Map local branches, policy committees, party congresses, parliamentary groups, and public hearings as connected spaces.
Show rights, responsibilities, and handoffs directly on the graph so workflows stay understandable.
Let political work move from member proposals to amendment reviews, votes, and parliamentary motions.
Amendments and change requests
Write policy text and review changes without losing the decision trail.
Amendments connect text, tags, and innovative elements such as graphics and media files. Members can see exactly which sections change and how much support a proposal has before it moves to a vote.
Events, timelines, and decisions
Connect meetings, public hearings, agenda items, and votes.
Events are not isolated calendar entries. They carry agenda work, amendment reviews, participant activity, and decision moments into a timeline everyone can follow.
Plan assemblies, hearings, committees, and town halls in an organization-wide context.
Embedded in workflows, events enable the automation of complex decision-making processes.
Keep participants oriented with a chronological timeline of what changed and what comes next.
Votes and elections
Run votes, candidacies, and results in one decision workspace.
Polity brings active votes and elections together with deadlines, voting status, election modes, and result summaries so members know when to act and what was decided.
Make decisions in votes and elections visible in real time, from anywhere in the world.
Organize deadlines, quorums, ballot options, candidacies, roles, and election rounds in the group or event context.
Publish results with turnout, majorities, and traceability right after the decision.
3D City Design
Turn a real street into an understandable, editable proposal.
City Design loads the mapped context of a selected area and brings spatial editing, costs, and change requests into one workspace.
Select an area and load roads, buildings, greenery, and markings from its OSM context.
Place, select, hide, or remove bike lanes, sidewalks, trees, benches, and green strips.
Compare the existing street and the design, review costs, and discuss spatial edits as change requests.
Social workspace and AI
Bring discussion, coordination, and AI-assisted drafting into the same flow.
Members can coordinate with groups, chat in the event context, and use AI assistance with tools and skills to understand debates or develop motions further.
Activity timeline
Show the pulse of democratic work as and where it happens.
A compact, geo-localized timeline helps people quickly find what is happening near them. New arguments, updated change requests, upcoming votes, and results have time and place context.
Search and discovery
Find the right person, document, event, or decision path quickly.
Semantic search helps users move through dense civic work without knowing the exact folder or title. Results can combine people, groups, events, amendments, and past decisions.
Official data sources
Find reliable data and shape it into decision-ready evidence.
The data workspace combines discovery across official sources and team CSV files with a builder for charts, tables, and headline statistics.
Search Eurostat, GENESIS/Destatis, GovData, and your own CSV data in one place.
Choose measures, dimensions, filters, and aggregations and see the result in a live preview.
Insert a chart, table, or statistic with publisher, license, and snapshot date attached.
