How it works

1

Collect voices at scale

Input can be survey responses, interviews, meeting transcripts, social media discussions, or structured conversations.

2

Analyze with Large Language Models

Broad Listening uses large language models to identify themes and summarize specific claims.

3

Ground insights in quotes

Each summary links back to participant statements, so you can always see the source.

4

Interactive reports

Results are shared in an online report, where you can explore themes and dive into the details behind them.

Why Broad Listening is Different

Depth and scale, together

Focus groups capture nuance, and polls capture scale. Broad Listening does both.

More trustworthy than standard AI

By grounding every claim in verified quotes, Broad Listening minimizes the hallucination problem that plagues other LLM tools.

Proven in practice

Governments, organizations, and advocacy groups have used Broad Listening to turn thousands of individual voices into clear, actionable agendas.

Democratically accessible

No complex setup or expensive licenses. Simply provide your data and get instant insights that empower inclusive decision-making.

The Broad Listening Collective is an open source movement pioneering democratic AI for governance and sensemaking. We democratize access to sophisticated analysis, ensuring every voice is heard in the decision-making process.
