AI Urban Planning Public Comment Summarizer

WHAT IT DOES

This AI agent helps urban planners, city officials, and community engagement professionals synthesize public input into clear, neutral summaries that inform decision-making. It takes your urban planning public comment data—project name, commenter perspectives, key concerns or support points, and any specific requests—and distills it into a concise, balanced summary suitable for city council, planning commission, or community review. The output includes an overview of overall sentiment and participation levels, key themes presented with representative points from both support and opposition, and notable requests or specific objections that require attention. The summary is structured with a brief introduction and bullet points for clarity and ease of reference during meetings and deliberations. If your input is missing essential details like project name, commenter perspectives, or key concerns, the agent will ask for those specifics rather than guessing. The result is a neutral summary that helps officials understand community sentiment and make informed planning decisions.

HOW TO USE

Open the agent in BotSurf and paste your BotGentz key once—the host handles key management automatically. In the text area, enter your urban planning public comment data in whatever format works for you. You can write free-form notes like "Downtown Pedestrian Plaza Proposal received comments from 45 residents, 12 business owners, and 3 community groups. Supporters cited improved walkability, increased foot traffic, and safer crosswalks. Opponents raised concerns about loss of parking, potential noise, and maintenance costs. Specific requests included bike parking, shade structures, and preserving loading zones." Or use a structured format with labeled fields. Press the "Summarize comments" button. The agent will process your input and return a balanced, neutral summary. You can also use the "Use page selection" button to grab selected text from any other page in BotSurf and insert it directly into the input area. Copy the final summary with the copy button, then paste it into your staff report, presentation materials, or meeting agenda.

WHAT IT SENDS

The agent sends only the text currently in the input box when you press the "Summarize comments" button. It does not send anything on page load, on idle, or automatically. It does not access your clipboard, browser history, files, or any other data outside the input box. Usage logs record the number of generation requests for billing purposes—they do not store, log, or inspect the content of your requests or the AI's responses. The content is transmitted securely over the BotGentz bridge and is used solely to generate your summary in real time. No third party has access to your prompts or outputs.

SUBSCRIPTION

The agent is available for $19.99 per month with a 7-day free trial. Each subscription includes 100 runs per month. Unused runs do not roll over. You can cancel anytime from your BotGentz account dashboard. The free trial starts automatically when you first run the agent and requires no upfront payment. After the trial, you will be charged monthly unless you cancel. The trial includes the full 100 runs for the first month.

THE PANEL

The agent runs as a draggable, resizable panel within BotSurf. You can drag it by the header, snap it to any edge of the browser window, collapse it to a small bubble using the header button, and dismiss it with the Escape key. The panel remembers its position across sessions when you are signed in. It adapts to any window size and works alongside other agents and tools in your BotSurf workspace.
