Parliamentary sittings generate hours of debate that must be captured with precision, neutrality, and legal integrity. Traditional Hansard production relies heavily on manual transcription, fragmented workflows, and static documents.
Common challenges included:
• Delays between sittings and published records
• Heavy reliance on manual or third-party transcription
• Time-intensive speaker identification and formatting
• Limited public access to searchable debates
• Archives locked in static PDFs or paper records
For small and mid-sized legislatures in particular, these constraints slowed transparency and increased operational costs.
Evoluut worked closely with parliamentary stakeholders to understand reporting standards, editorial controls, and public access requirements.
The goal was clear:
• Preserve Hansard accuracy and neutrality
• Support live and recorded sittings seamlessly
• Reduce editorial workload without sacrificing control
• Improve transparency and citizen access
The result was WhoSaidWhat—a system designed to assist, not replace, parliamentary clerks and editors.
