Your AI Town Guide
Our Mission
Make Needham's public information accessible, searchable, and understandable for everyone.
How It Works
We collect publicly available information from town websites, school district pages, local news, community organizations, and more. When you search, AI finds the most relevant information and generates a clear, sourced answer. Every answer links back to official sources so you can verify. Data is refreshed regularly to stay current.
AI can be wrong — always check official sources for critical decisions (permits, taxes, legal matters).
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an official Town of Needham website?
No. This is an independent community project built by a Needham resident. Always verify important information at needhamma.gov or by calling Town Hall at (781) 455-7500.
Is my data being collected?
We don't require accounts or collect personal information. Search queries are logged anonymously to improve results. We use Pendo for anonymous usage analytics (no personal data).
Can the AI be wrong?
Yes. AI can make mistakes or misinterpret information. That's why we always link to original sources so you can verify. For important decisions like permits, taxes, or legal matters, check official town resources.
