LIVE — STORIES ON THE RECORD

The EMT who saved your dad.
The DMV clerk who lost your form.
On the record.

A public record of every cop, EMT, firefighter, DMV worker, hospital nurse, school board member, mayor, and governor — written by the people they serve. Anonymous if you want. Public forever either way.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps. The whole thing.

1
❤️
You had a moment with a public servant.
Maybe the EMT held your mom's hand at 2am. Maybe the DMV clerk made you come back three times for a form their website didn't even mention. Maybe the school board voted no on the bus route your kid needed. Write what happened. Two minutes.

🛡️
You stay anonymous if you want.
Default is anonymous — you get a private handle like Anonymous-4471. Speak the truth without exposing yourself. Add your real name later if you decide it's safer than silence. Your call, always.
3
👀
Everyone in your town sees it.
Your story joins the public record under that person's name. Neighbors searching that officer find it. Reporters covering that agency find it. The mayor running for re-election finds it. Patterns become impossible to ignore — and agencies are forced to actually respond, because the whole community is now watching.
WHY THIS HAS TO EXIST

You have 47 reviews for the pizza place down the street. Zero for the cop who pulled you over last month.

We review restaurants. We review Ubers. We review dentists, plumbers, hair salons. We trust those reviews so much that they change which businesses live and die.

But the people who actually run your community — the cop, the EMT, the DMV clerk, the school board member, the mayor — you have no place to say "this person saved me" or "this person treated me like dirt and got away with it."

That's what CivicTab is. One public record, by the people, for the people, of the people who serve them. Recognize the good. Document the rest. On the record. Forever.

Got a moment that should be on the record?

A 30-second story changes what other people in your community know about a public servant. Right now, today.

Partnership Opportunity

Why Partner With CivicTab?

CivicTab is the public record of every interaction with a public servant — police, EMT, fire, DMV, hospitals, government. We turn the most emotional moments people have with civic institutions into a structured, shareable record. The people here aren’t scrolling memes — they showed up because something happened and they want it written down. That’s an audience advertisers don’t reach anywhere else.
