About

Civic transparency for Pittsburgh.

ClearGov PGH is a free, independent platform that makes Pittsburgh City Council activity accessible and understandable for everyday residents. We believe informed citizens make stronger communities.

What We Do

  • Track all legislation introduced to Pittsburgh City Council
  • Display meeting schedules with links to agendas, minutes, and video
  • Provide AI-powered plain-language summaries of ordinances and resolutions
  • Let citizens comment on and discuss legislation
  • Analyze trends in council activity

Data Sources

All legislative data is sourced from the City of Pittsburgh’s public Legistar system via their public API. Data is synchronized daily to ensure freshness.

AI Analysis

AI-generated summaries and insights are produced by Anthropic’s Claude. These summaries are intended to make legislation more accessible — they are not legal advice and should not substitute for reading the official documents.
