Civis is a startup that aims to help governments communicate more effectively with Indian citizens by providing an interface for them to engage with policy changes. The platform uses social media platforms and gamification to collect feedback from citizens, which is then presented to legislators in 3-minute sessions. Civis was founded on the principles of public sector tech, driven by the need to bridge the gap between citizens and policymakers, particularly in India where access to information and participation are limited. The founders leveraged Bubble, a website builder that offers flexibility and customization, to create the platform. Civis has found success in engaging citizens through cultural factors and mass media partnerships, and is now exploring new features such as gamification, video explanations, and translation APIs to expand its reach. The startup plans to introduce these features over the coming months, with a focus on scaling up its impact to shape a new narrative for democracy using technology.
