Simple, online Public Participation.

Public Participation is the process by which public concerns, needs and values are incorporated into governmental and corporate decision-making. PublicGate delivers an online, efficient and impartial Public Participation process.

Accessible

PublicGate ensures that the public can participate safely and always for free! Our online platform is easy to use and accessible 24/7 from mobile and desktop devices.

Informative

We advocate for public participation as a force for good for all. PublicGate educates users on best practices and improves participation processes.

Independent

PublicGate is transparent, independent, and democratic. We are not the decision-makers; we only keep the gate open.

Our easy-to-use online platform provides a safe, efficient and reliable Public Participation process. Contact us to set up a demo!

Facilitating meaningful conversations.

PublicGate facilitates inclusive and impartial two-way communication between the public, private sector, and governing bodies. Involving the public early on leads to more legitimate, sustainable and less contested decisions as they consider the needs and interests of all stakeholders, including vulnerable populations. Stakeholders also better understand and are more invested in the outcomes.

The process has ten steps, starting with the advertiser creating a new run, reviewing and scheduling it, and sharing a QR code or URL. The public can then view the run information, comment online with privacy protection, and upload supporting documentation. Comments are submitted and verified before the advertising period concludes. Finally, advertisers upload external comments, add notes, automate reports, and finalize the run. A note clarifies that PublicGate does not manage submissions to authorities.An infographic illustrating the PublicGate participation process as an infinity loop.
