AI
AI that pulls its weight.
Not a paid add-on.
Most community platforms shipped a chatbot, called it "AI", and added a tier. Civup is different: AI is built into six core workflows so the platform actually does the busy work — importing, moderating, drafting, matching, surfacing, summarizing.
Included on every plan
AI is core to the product, not an upsell. We don't gate moderation behind "Premium AI" or charge per generation.
Editable, not autonomous
AI drafts. Humans publish. Every AI output is review-able and revertible. We surface confidence scores so you know when to trust the model and when not to.
Your data stays yours
We do not use Your Content to train any third-party foundation model. AI processing happens server-side; outputs and inputs are not retained beyond the request unless you explicitly save them.
Pluggable providers
We default to a sensible model per task. Operators can swap providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, local) per workflow if they have compliance or cost preferences.
Capability 01
AI imports
Bulk-import any source. AI handles classification, dedup, and the descriptions you didn't have time to write.
- Source: CSV, JSON, OpenStreetMap, competitor exports, web scrapes
- AI category assignment from name + description, with confidence scores
- Fuzzy duplicate detection across name, address, phone, and geo proximity
- Auto-merge or hold-for-review based on configurable confidence threshold
- Generates missing descriptions in your tenant's tone of voice
- Geocodes street addresses; reverse-geocodes lat/lng pairs
Capability 02
AI moderation
Real-time scoring on every member submission. Obvious spam disappears; edge cases surface to a human queue with the AI rationale attached.
- Comments, listings, reviews, profiles, and event submissions all scored
- Configurable thresholds for auto-remove vs. queue-for-human
- Multi-signal: spam, off-topic, profanity, PII, impersonation
- Each flag includes the AI's reasoning so moderators can second-guess fast
- Auto-suspend repeat offenders after configurable strike count
- Daily moderation digest emailed to community admins
Capability 03
AI content drafts
A one-line prompt becomes a draft. For listings, blog posts, event copy, or email campaigns. Always editable, never auto-published.
- Tone calibration learns from existing published content
- "Generate descriptions for these 50 listings" runs in batch
- Image alt text generation from the photo itself
- SEO meta title + description suggestions per page
- Translates content into other languages with editorial review queue
- Drafts marked clearly until a human approves and publishes
Capability 04
Conversational search
Members and visitors ask questions in plain language. Civup answers from your own listings, posts, and events.
- Semantic search via embeddings beyond keyword FTS
- Geo-aware: "near me" actually means near them
- Multi-intent: "kid-friendly Italian with outdoor seating open Sunday"
- Cited results — every answer links to source listings
- Per-tenant tuning: boost categories, suppress others
- Falls back gracefully to traditional search if confidence is low
Capability 05
AI member matching
Surface the connections members didn't know they wanted. Vendor-to-customer, mentor-to-mentee, neighbor-to-neighbor.
- Profile + activity signals drive match scoring
- Configurable matching criteria per tenant (industry, interests, geography)
- Scheduled "people you should meet" emails
- One-click intro requests with consent on both sides
- Mentorship program scaffolding (pairs, cohorts, structured prompts)
- Match outcome tracking — which intros led to real conversations
Capability 06
AI insights
Community health scoring, churn warnings, and weekly summaries delivered to your inbox so you don't have to live in the dashboard.
- Engagement score per member: are they active, lurking, or about to leave
- Listing performance: views, click-throughs, contact-form fills
- Anomaly detection: spike in spam, drop in posts, unusual traffic
- Weekly digest emailed Mondays — wins, concerns, next-best-actions
- Top contributors leaderboard for recognition
- Cohort retention reports without exporting to a BI tool
