Summary
Polimill began with Surfvote, a platform where citizens can exchange views about politics and society. To expand civic participation, Polimill first needed to make government work itself more efficient. The company started building a generative AI platform for public-sector workflows and released QommonsAI in October 2024. One of the biggest obstacles to bringing generative AI into government was fragmented data. Polimill collected and standardized assembly minutes from across Japan, then used AI to add metadata and build a high-precision search foundation that works across municipalities and time periods.
