AI Transcription and Meeting Records for Municipalities
Bronko AI helps municipal clerks, administrators, and governance teams capture accurate records of council meetings, committee hearings, and public consultations — and manage them through review, approval, and controlled publication.
Records management designed for municipal proceedings
Municipal governments are required to create and maintain accurate records of their public proceedings. Bronko AI supports the complete record lifecycle — from live transcription during a council meeting to approved minutes, searchable archives, public portals, and protected records for closed sessions. The result is a more consistent, searchable, and governable record without replacing the clerk's professional judgement.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can Bronko AI help prepare draft municipal meeting minutes?
- Yes. Bronko AI can generate structured AI-assisted draft content from a meeting transcript, including summaries, decisions, and action items. This material should pass through the municipality's standard review and approval process before becoming official minutes.
- Can protected portions of a council meeting remain restricted?
- Yes. Protected Session Mode allows the system to continue capturing a complete record during a closed session while automatically restricting that content from the public portal and external access.
- Can residents search approved meeting records?
- Yes. Bronko AI supports organisation-specific public portals where approved transcripts, summaries, and meeting metadata can be published and searched by members of the public.
- Does Bronko AI replace the municipal clerk?
- No. Bronko AI supports the clerk's work by reducing manual transcription effort and creating searchable records. The clerk retains responsibility for reviewing, correcting, approving, and publishing the official record.
- Can existing recordings be processed?
- Yes. Previously recorded audio and video files can be uploaded securely and processed through the same transcription, review, and archiving workflows.
