AssemblyAI · x · 2026-10-21
Civic intelligence platform Hamlet, powered by AssemblyAI's Universal-3.5 Pro speech model and speaker diarization, converts lengthy US city council, planning commission, and school board recordings into structured data. Key numbers:
- 10,000+ local official profiles at launch, searchable by residents and journalists
- 100,000+ meeting transcripts indexed
- 3x value on speaker identification accuracy
City councils decide on real estate development and rezoning in meetings almost nobody watches—Hamlet turns that opaque record into searchable civic intelligence, a notable voice-AI deployment for government transparency.
