AI for government’s hardest work

Mesa is an AI agent that works across the law, your systems, and your office’s practices, taking on everything from deep regulatory research to public records requests.

What agencies use Mesa for.

Mesa Research

Research across the law and your agency’s systems.

  • Plans the whole job

    Mesa breaks a project into steps and adjusts the plan as it goes, like when a provision turns out to rest on a past council vote.

  • The law and your systems

    Statutes, codes, and regulations for more than 10,000 jurisdictions, alongside Legistar, ArcGIS, and your shared drives.

  • Work ready for review

    Mesa drafts the memo, dataset, or amendments, checks them, and flags the judgment calls for your staff.

Mesa Public Records

Public records requests, from intake to release.

A public records request to the City of Westover for emails and files about the Lakebridge Ave resurfacing, January to March 2026, moves from arrival to release. Intake logs it as PRR-2026-0418, received Monday, April 6, and counts ten business days to a due date of Monday, April 20. Collection pulls 1,847 items from three mailboxes, SharePoint, and a shared drive; removing duplicates leaves 903, and grouping threads leaves 212 review units. A reviewer approves Mesa’s proposed redactions and one withholding. The release, a production of 204 records with a response letter and an 18-entry withholding log, is ready to send on April 14, six business days in.
  • Log and scope the request

    Mesa sets the due date from your statute and drafts an acknowledgment that narrows a broad request.

  • Collect and review

    Mesa gathers email and files from your systems and proposes redactions across documents, audio, and video. Staff approve each one.

  • Send the release

    Mesa assembles the release with its withholding log and cover letter.

One agent that gets to know your office.

Mesa is one agent across every workspace, so what it learns on one job carries into the next. It picks up how your attorneys approach redactions, which requests your team triages first, and which peer jurisdictions your analysts compare against. Over time, your staff can hand it harder work with less explaining.

Explore the platform
  • The law

    More than 10,000 jurisdictions of statutes, codes, and regulations, kept current and cited to the passage.

  • Your systems

    Connectors to ArcGIS, Legistar, Laserfiche, SharePoint, Microsoft 365, and the other systems where your records already live.

  • What it learns

    How your systems are laid out, what has worked before, and how your staff like things done, picked up as Mesa works and carried into every job after.

99.8%

Recall on a federal statutory research task

On a peer-reviewed benchmark, Mesa found 99.8% of the criminal provisions in the U.S. Code. The next-best system found 63%.

“Five years ago, this sort of research would have likely taken years. Mesa processed New York’s entire legal code in an afternoon.”
