What Everyone is Saying...
"SmartComment is fantastic. It combines ease of use with transparency and has upped our public engagement game significantly. It has saved huge amounts of time as we no longer have to respond to public records requests because all of the comments are already online. It has also increased the amount of comments we receive for permits and regulation changes, making government more accessible and transparent. Just what Alaska was looking for!"
Jason BruneCommissioner, Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation

The SmartComment software provides the public with easy comment entry, interactive mapping, and a comment dashboard to provide efficient management of comments and easily display comment analytics for ‘comment tracking’.
