Developers
MCP-native access to NYC public-record context.
Akil gives compatible AI clients, internal tools, and developer workflows access to source-backed public records with anchors, caveats, and follow-up paths preserved.
Tool Families
Public-record tools organized around civic work.
Places and property
Address, BBL, zoning, permits, DOB/DOB NOW, HPD, OATH, ACRIS, 311, nearby records, and district context.
Money and procurement
Grants, awards, contracts, budgets, payments, vendors, authorities, procurement records, and public funding context.
Organizations and rules
Nonprofits, business licenses, campaign finance, lobbying, legislation, rules, hearings, regulatory directories, and source-specific identity facets.
Developer Contract
The answer should carry its provenance.
Structured, cited outputs
Tool responses are designed to preserve source names, verify links, query scope, result limits, and interpretation notes so downstream agents do not invent record meaning.
Honest degraded paths
When a query times out, returns a capped page, or hits a source limit, Akil should say what happened and keep the relevant caveats visible instead of implying full clearance.
Trust Checks
Integrate a tool layer with live trust checks.
Akil's MCP layer is checked for source-aware behavior: coverage disclosure, identity separation, metric interpretation, regulatory boundaries, source footers, empty-result wording, and degraded paths.
Source and caveat checks
Checks whether tools avoid overclaiming public-record signals as clearance, ownership, verified incidents, total measurements, or final determinations.
Coverage and no-result checks
Checks that live responses keep source attribution, caveats, broad-query guards, and degraded-path context visible.
Public status endpoint
Clients can reference the public snapshot at mcp.askakil.ai/trust/status for current trust-check status.
Build With Akil
Good fits for developer pilots.
Copilots
Embed NYC civic context in internal assistants for real estate, legal-services, community, policy, or government-affairs work.
Dashboards
Use Akil to power the public-record context behind address, district, organization, vendor, or agency views.
Reports
Generate diligence packets, district briefings, funding scans, or site-screening outputs with source and coverage notes included.
