What is Ordinal?

Ordinal is an AI-powered research assistant designed specifically for local governments. Built by BreakGround Technologies, it solves the problem of staff spending up to one-third of their week researching and responding to inquiries. The tool pulls accurate answers only from approved documents, GIS data, municipal codes, and other city-specific resources, ensuring consistency and reliability. Its core capabilities include instant question-answering, reference viewing, email draft generation, and federal grant searching from SAM.gov. Ordinal requires no IT setup, is low-cost, and secures data. It fits workflows for mayors, city clerks, planners, council members, 3-1-1 teams, code enforcement, communications, administration, economic development, and city attorneys. The tool also helps preserve institutional knowledge and train new staff efficiently.
