Trust, security and ethics

AI your council can stand behind.

myLot is built for public-sector accountability: records stored in Australia, council data that never trains a model, planners who make every decision, and a tamper-evident record of what the AI did and why. Every policy is public.

Why It matters

Planning decisions are statutory, contestable and permanent

The AI that helps make them has to meet a higher bar than a chatbot. This hub sets out how myLot meets it, in plain English, with the evidence linked.

1

AI ethics and governance

The planner decides, the AI drafts. How we keep it that way, and how our policies map to Australian government AI frameworks.

Planners decide, always

Privacy and data

Where your data is stored, where it is processed, what our AI providers can and cannot do with it, and how long we keep it.

Zero data retention

Written deletion at exit

Accuracy

Why myLot’s AI only reasons from your scheme and your documents, how we test it, and how your planners’ feedback makes it better.
