Abstract

The issues of infrastructure and other public services like roads, electricity, water supply, and waste management are some of the common causes of complaints by citizens that are experienced by municipalities all over the world. Paperbased systems of complaint handling can cause delays, record duplicate, poor categorization and prioritization. This paper will solve these problems by proposing CivicSense, an AIbased platform that applies Generative AI and sophisticated Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify, rank, and summarize massive amounts of citizen complaints automatically. The system transforms unstructured textual information into structured actionable insights that can help authorities make a decision. An example of this is that of CivicSense, which can automatically produce weekly analytical reports like; Ward 5 has 42 road-related complaints this week - High Priority. This automated intelligence allows redressing of grievances promptly, provides better transparency and facilitates datadriven urban governance. Finally, CivicSense is expected to enhance the effectiveness of the municipalities through providing prompt responses and enhanced allocation of resources, depending on the trend of complaints in real-time.
