About OCN

OCN Technology builds AI-native software that helps UK councils operate more efficiently, effectively and openly.

OCN Technology (OCN) is a UK software company on a mission to give local government software as good as the services it’s meant to support. Councils today run on ageing, disconnected systems that make everyday work slow and public information hard to find.

CivicOS puts a council’s democratic and administrative work (meetings, decisions, records, resident requests) on one AI-native platform. The result: less time lost to admin, lower running costs, and a public record that’s easy to search and impossible to lose.

Open Council Network, OCN’s public platform, makes local democracy easy to follow, transcribing and surfacing council meetings, decisions and committees so residents and journalists can see what their council is doing.
