Your dashboard opens with a welcome built for your government: recent high-engagement posts from communities near you, shown as live embeds with their real numbers. It is the fastest possible answer to “what are our neighbors doing that works?”

• Curated to your state and comparable governments automatically
• Engagement counts are measured by us, not self-reported
• Scroll on for search, filters, and analytics

Type any topic, phrase, or hashtag to see how thousands of governments are messaging on it — and check Trending this week for what is moving right now. Open More filters to narrow by state, county, unit type, date range, engagement level, platform, or population band, then hit Apply filters.

• Start broad: “road closure,” “budget vote,” “fall festival”
• The Borrow List keeps posts you want to adapt later
• Filter by population band to compare with similar-sized communities

Results rank by relevance, in list or grid view. Every post shows the government, location, date, the post itself as a live embed, and its measured engagement. Open any post to view the original on the agency’s own page.

• Switch between list (more context) and grid (scan faster)
• Sort by top engagement to see what actually landed
• Click Download current posts as CSV for your own analysis

Charts always reflect your current search and filters — run a search, then generate exactly the views you need.

• Top 20 Hashtags — the tags peers actually use for your topic
• Word cloud — the language that resonates with residents
• Theme Treemap — what your peers post about most

Ask GovFeeds AI anything about peer communications and it answers with real, cited peer posts and their live engagement, as shown here for “what is earning the most engagement near us right now.” It also drafts ready-to-edit posts grounded in those examples.

• Try: “How are other cities announcing water main breaks?”
• Ask for a ready-to-edit draft, then copy it to Meta Business Suite from the Post Composer
• Paste an image (Cmd/Ctrl+V) and ask for a caption

Subscribers receive a monthly GovFeeds Benchmarking Report — a polished PDF comparing your posting volume, engagement, and content themes against statewide peers, with specific recommendations. Find every report under Client Reports; on a trial you’ll see an anonymized sample so you know exactly what is coming.

• Ranks you by percentile against comparable governments
• The Bottom Line Up Front gives you the headline in seconds
• Colleagues you add see your organization’s reports too
