1. Problem Statement

Governments and civic organizations are increasingly using AI to guide policy, budgeting, and service delivery. Most of these systems are black boxes — their reasoning is hidden, and outcomes are hard to question or verify. This leads to:

⚠️ Public distrust in AI-driven governance

⚖️ Unfair or biased decision outcomes

🚫 Lack of accountability

🗣️ Exclusion of citizens from digital decision-making

2. Our Solution: CivixAI

A transparent and Explainable AI platform that allows policymakers and citizens to:

Understand why an AI made a certain decision

Detect and reduce bias in governance models

Build trust through clear, visual, and interpretable insights

Enable collaborative civic participation in decision-making

3. Key Features

Feature

Description

🧠 Explainable Insights

Translates AI predictions into plain, human language

⚖️ Bias Detector

📊 Civic Dashboard

Shows real-time, visual transparency reports

🔍 Decision Trace

🗣️ Citizen Portal

Lets citizens view, question, and learn from AI-driven policies

4. How It Works

Input: Civic datasets (e.g., housing, education, healthcare)

AI Model: Uses decision trees or NLP models for predictions
