Interface
An interactive interface designed to simplify communication between the town hall and its residents
Available from any page of the website or resident portal, this smart chat bubble lets people get an immediate answer, start a procedure or ask a question without going through complex forms or a phone call.
Thanks to its built-in conversational AI, the chatbot understands each resident’s needs, adapts its answers to their profile and guides them step by step to the right information or service.

Knowledge base
A resident knowledge base, rich and up to date
It brings together all of your local authority’s useful information for residents: administrative procedures, forms, processes, contacts, opening hours, required documents.
This base is dynamic and evolving: it adapts to the context of the request, filters out irrelevant information and shows only what matters to the resident.
For staff, this means fewer phone calls, fewer redundant e-mails and more time spent on human support and case processing.

Accessibility
A tool that makes public services more accessible
The AI chatbot transforms the way residents interact with the administration. It streamlines communication, simplifies procedures and offers immediate assistance at any hour of the day or night.
Combined with automated handling of mail, e-mails and procedures, it integrates with our modules and becomes the cornerstone of a modern digital administration.
- Interactive conversational assistant available 24/7
