Solution
A compliance OS, not another scanner
PublicProof treats public-service pages, PDFs, agenda packets, forms, vendor systems, and evidence generation as one workflow. The system is designed to support service teams, county leadership, procurement, and legal reviewers at the same time.
Workflow architecture
| Module | Deterministic record | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Inventory | Entities, surfaces, assets, sources, and scan runs | PublicProof starts with the real resident-facing footprint instead of a partial crawl. |
| Findings | WCAG-mapped issues with service criticality, owner, and due-date visibility | Operators and county teams can prioritize service risk without opaque scoring. |
| Remediation | Tasks, workstreams, and vendor accountability milestones | Fix ownership survives handoff across departments and third-party vendors. |
| Evidence | Compiled scope, remediation, exception, and vendor dependency summaries | Leadership and procurement teams can review proof instead of waiting for manual report assembly. |
Core modules
- Surface inventory across websites, document repositories, and vendor-managed services
- Document and PDF risk scoring for high-volume public records and meeting materials
- Finding normalization by WCAG reference and service criticality
- Remediation planning with owner assignment across internal teams and vendors
- Evidence pack generation for pilot reporting and ongoing compliance governance
What stays human-reviewed
- Severity, exceptions, and evidence issuance remain deterministic and operator-reviewed.
- AI can help draft workflows internally, but it does not make final compliance judgments.
- The product is optimized for county and city operations, not generic accessibility scanning.
