Technical Updates

AI developments are advancing rapidly. Together with Polpo users, we are constantly exploring how the latest innovations can make working with political information even easier. Over the past period, our IT experts have been hard at work developing an entirely new feature for the Polpo platform. We are proud to introduce automatic debate transcriptions. Waiting for an official report of a parliamentary debate is now a thing of the past. With the latest advancements in generative AI, you will quickly receive a transcript of relevant topics discussed during the debate. This way, you can stay informed about the latest political developments faster and more easily.

“The Dutch Parliament has a packed meeting schedule. For professionals, attending or re-watching several relevant debates is time-consuming. Automatic debate transcriptions make this process far more efficient and accessible. AI converts the debates into text and makes them easily searchable. Additionally, email notifications keep you proactively informed whenever one of your topics is discussed in Parliament.” – Caspar Pille, Co-founder.

Plenary and Committee Meetings

With this latest addition to the platform, you can now review what was discussed during plenary and committee meetings in the Dutch Parliament even before the official verbatim reports are published online. Furthermore, Polpo also provides transcriptions of procedural meetings—meetings where only a summary of decisions is provided but no verbatim report. This means you can still easily review what was discussed regarding your relevant agenda points without having to watch the entire meeting.

Discover the Benefits:

  • Efficient – Stay updated on multiple debates simultaneously through email notifications, easily review what was discussed, and save a significant amount of manual work.
  • Fast – Access debate transcriptions quickly after a parliamentary debate ends—no more waiting for the official report.
  • Comprehensive – Also gain access to transcriptions of meetings where no verbatim report is produced (procedural meetings).
