One place for every voice in every neighborhood — captured first, understood second.
Your neighborhood directors already gather an enormous amount from the districts: street conversations, info evenings, paper surveys, online projects, recordings. Today it scatters across tools and projects. Go Vocal is the single hub where all of it lands, is logged with full traceability, and is coded to the city's own themes — so that sensemaking, later, rests on data you trust.
Capture
Every channel feeds one place — a street chat recorded on a phone, a stack of paper forms, an online idea, an uploaded recording.
Any source · any neighborhoodManage
One repository. Every item logged with where it came from, who collected it, and which theme it belongs to. Traceable end to end.
The priority for GhentMake sense
Cross-neighborhood summaries, trends toward the elections, and reports — every insight tracing back to a real thing a resident said.
Toward 2027–2028Capture — 360° input, from every channel
Not everything residents say arrives as a tidy “idea” or survey answer. A recorded conversation with five people is a transcript, not a form. The hub accepts them all and ties each to a neighborhood the moment it lands.
Bring input into the hub
Any kind of input — a recorded conversation, an information-evening recording, photographed meeting notes, an uploaded document or form. Capture it on a phone or connect a source, and we process it into the monitor.

Connect a source once; new input then syncs into the hub automatically, coded like everything elseNeighborhood Input Repository
Every signal from every neighborhood — logged, traced, and coded to the city's themes. One pool across projects and neighborhoods, not locked inside a single engagement project.
City sensemaking
Once the repository is trustworthy, the picture emerges across all neighborhoods — not one project at a time. Reports, trends, and a place to simply ask.
