Livestreaming allows local authorities to demonstrate a commitment to transparency and accountability for all residents. It encourages engagement and debate. Thanks to features such as subtitling, councils can reach high accessibility standards.
Public-i pioneered local government streaming, helping our first council webcast in 2000. We have a deep understanding of the needs of the local government sector and we work closely with local authorities to develop solutions that make meetings better.
Our automatic meeting transcription feature means that each meeting has a full, searchable transcript available on archive. This saves time when minute taking and responding to FOI requests. The transcript can be displayed as subtitles: helping to create accessible meetings.
We offer a dual-language facility for Welsh clients who need to simultaneously provide facilities for Welsh and English speakers, too.
Connect Webcasting works with Modern.Gov and CMIS, the leading providers in paperless governance, to simplify all aspects of meeting management. Webcast booking syncs automatically from the committee management system, and all documents, agenda points and metadata is automatically synced too.
Our camera tracking solution automates with all up-to-date microphone systems, meaning that the camera focuses on the live-speaker automatically. There’s no need for an operator.
Every local authority is different. That’s why we offer truly bespoke features to suit each client. For example:
“In the many years we’ve been using Public-i’s webcasting system, I am pleased to say the service received has been excellent. I do not believe that there is another webcasting company that could offer us more.”

“I can’t speak highly enough of this solution. Dead easy, dead straightforward. You’re able to webcast anything, anywhere: it is what is says on the box.”
