Inventory Thing

Create an inventory of your local government services.

About

Understanding what services your government offers—and how they’re described—is essential for transparency, usability, and service design. A services inventory helps you see every service you provide, who it’s for, how it’s described, and where people find it.

Inventory Thing is an AI assistant that helps you quickly assemble and refine a service inventory so you can:

  • See all your government services in one place
  • Standardize service names and descriptions
  • Identify gaps, overlaps, and inconsistencies
  • Start writing action pages for them

How

  1. Go to the chat
  2. Upload or paste your list of services (URLs, titles, spreadsheets, PDFs)
  3. Get a structured service inventory you can edit and export
  4. Use the inventory to plan improvements and governance

Tips

Start with your raw lists

Begin with anything you already have, such as:

  • Website navigation or sitemap
  • PDFs listing services
  • Spreadsheets from departments
  • URLs

Inventory Thing can ingest mixed formats and help turn them into one clean list.

Review for accuracy

Don’t rely on it to write perfect and accurate content. Sometimes generative AI makes up information. Review it carefully with subject matter experts.
