Research planning and public policy with PIA's own positions at the centre

PIA Policy AI searches the Institute's Google Drive collections, distinguishes approved PIA positions from external policy intelligence and contextual reference material, and answers questions with citations staff can verify.

Policy AI

Ask questions and get answers grounded in PIA's approved positions, with every claim cited to its source document.

Document library

Browse and search the indexed Google Drive collection, filtered by source authority, jurisdiction and topic.

Policy intelligence

Track government, ministerial and agency announcements captured in the CCH collection.

Drafting workspace

Prepare briefings, submissions and talking points that separate established positions from proposed language.

Access is restricted to accounts approved by a PIA administrator. Policy AI supports staff judgement and does not approve policy; drafts have no official status until reviewed through PIA's processes.
