Full-text search across every meeting you've ever processed. Find specific discussions, decisions, and votes from months or even years ago.
How ClerkMinutes Works
ClerkMinutes indexes every meeting you process. Full-text search across your entire meeting history with relevance-ranked results and actual context
Search by concept, not just exact wording: Type "park renovation." Get results that mention park improvement, park redesign, park construction, or community space updates. The search understands related terms and finds relevant discussions even when the exact phrase doesn't appear.
Cross-meeting results: One search queries your entire meeting archive. A resident can quickly see every meeting a topic was discussed.
Context included: Results show the surrounding discussion with enough context to know if it's the right meeting without opening the full minutes.
Use cases where meeting minutes search matters
Board member asks about a previous decision mid-discussion. You search and find the context. The meeting continues without delay without having to follow up later.
Request: "All discussions and decisions related to the downtown parking ordinance changes over the last 8 months." You search "downtown parking ordinance." Get chronological results across the last 8 months. Export the relevant sections. Fulfill the request in minutes instead of days.
New board member needs context on an ongoing municipality initiative. You search the initiative name. Pull up the full discussion history. They can read the actual decisions and context instead of getting secondhand summaries that might miss important details.
Long-term employee retires. New person takes over. They ask, "Why do we handle X this way?" You search the topic. Find the meeting where the policy was established. Show them the original discussion and rationale. Institutional knowledge isn't locked in people's heads.
