Copilot and Gemini can draft your next agenda or notice, but not on the first try. Plus: Albuquerque's vendor AI disclosure rule, and Maryland's 120-day deadline for school AI policies.

Prompt Local

A free weekly newsletter for the people running small government offices. Each week, one AI tool that fits a real job in a small government office, records requests, meeting minutes, permits, resident questions, that kind of work. I'll show you exactly how to put it to use, plus what to watch for so it doesn't bite you later. I also flag any new AI rules landing on offices like yours. That's it. No fluff, no sales pitch.
