Help Citizens Find the Right Information. From Your Own Official Content.

Citizens expect the same instant, accurate answers from their government website that they get anywhere else online. AddSearch gives your public sector website the AI search experience residents already expect, drawing entirely from your own official content, nothing else.

AI SEARCH & CONVERSATIONAL CONTENT DISCOVERY FOR GOVERNMENT WEBSITES

Citizens No Longer Call Their Council. They Search.

The way people interact with government has shifted permanently. People now open a browser before they ever pick up the phone or walk through your front door.

They expect to find permit requirements, benefit eligibility, planning applications, bin collection schedules, and emergency notices online, quickly and on their own terms. AddSearch makes that possible.

Privacy-First

Your official content and data stay in your environment. Never shared, never used to train third-party AI models. SOC 2 Type II certified.

No AI Hallucinations

Every answer comes strictly from your own indexed content. No invented information, no external sources, nothing your institution hasn't approved.

Contextual Intelligence

People can ask follow-up questions and get answers that build on the conversation, just like they would with ChatGPT, but grounded entirely in your content.

Testimonial

“We were pretty amazed at how quickly it just got everything. And it was hard to stump it. We were throwing a lot of different things at it that were obscure, and it would find that content.”

When a Resident Gets an Answer from Your Website, It Has to Be Right.

Government & public sector websites carry a level of responsibility that commercial sites don’t. A wrong answer about benefit eligibility, a missed planning deadline, or an inaccurate regulation reference has real consequences for real people. That’s why AddSearch operates exclusively on your indexed content.

  • Every generative answer cites the exact source page it came from
  • If an answer isn’t in your published content, AddSearch tells the resident, no guessing
  • Your team controls which content is indexed and which is excluded
  • No resident data or content is used to train external AI models
  • Full audit visibility into what’s being asked and how it’s being answered

Your Digital Team Stays in Control. Without a Developer Ticket.

Search on a government website can’t run on autopilot. Services change, policies update, emergencies happen. AddSearch gives your communications and digital team the tools to manage search without waiting on IT.

  • Pin service pages and emergency notices to the top of results at any time
  • Set synonyms that residents use in plain language
  • Promote seasonal content: planning deadlines, grant windows, consultation periods, exactly when residents need it
  • Restrict which content appears in search results by page type, department, or access level
  • Update, expand, or recrawl your content index without engineering involvement
  • Configure generative answer scope: define which pages it can draw from and which it cannot

The Questions Residents Are Asking Tell You Exactly What Your Content Is Missing.

Government websites accumulate content over years and across departments. Policies change, services are restructured, and new needs emerge.

The AddSearch Analytics dashboard shows you exactly what residents are searching for, where searches return no results, and which questions AI Answers couldn’t resolve from your current content.

  • See the most common resident searches across your entire site
  • Identify no-results queries to find content gaps before residents hit dead ends
  • Review full conversation logs to understand what residents are asking in their own words
  • Track which generative answers are resolving queries and which are falling short
  • Spot seasonal spikes: planning submissions before deadlines, benefit queries before payment datee, and make sure your content is ready

Turn Every Search Into a Step Toward Service Completion.

A resident searching your website already wants to do something. AddSearch makes sure they find exactly what they need: the right service page, the correct form, the eligibility criteria, the opening hours, and keeps them moving toward completing it.

Implementation Support From Kick-Off to Go-Live and Beyond.

AddSearch manages the entire implementation process, so your team reviews and approves, while we handle the rest.

  • Onboarding, index creation, and UI build managed by AddSearch
  • Prompt engineering and AI answer configuration included
  • CSS styling and CMS integration handled without burdening your IT team
  • Full training provided at go-live, so your team is confident from day one

FAQs About AI Search for Government & Public Sector

Yes. AddSearch is built to index large, complex site structures — including multiple departments, subsites, subdomains, PDFs, statutory documents, and portal pages, and surface results from across all of them in a single unified search experience. There is no practical limit on content volume, and the index updates automatically as your content changes.

Give Every Resident the Answer They Need. Instantly.

Government & public sector websites carry a responsibility that commercial sites don’t. AddSearch makes sure every person who searches your site gets an accurate, sourced answer, drawn entirely from your official content, available 24 hours a day, without putting more pressure on your team.
