Ask Ottawa Council
A free public tool that answers questions about Ottawa City Council's official record: meeting minutes, motions, recorded votes, and staff reports.
- .NET 10
- React
- Azure OpenAI
- Azure AI Search
- Azure SQL
- MCP
- Every answer is cited
- An agent searches the record and links each answer to the source meeting document.
- Refuses rather than guesses
- Low-confidence questions get a plain "not sure" instead of a confident wrong answer.
- Costs capped by design
- About a cent per answer, with per-visitor limits, bot protection, caching, and a hard daily cap.
- Open to other agents
- The same record is exposed through its own MCP server.

How it works
From first call to working software.
- 01
A 30-minute call
Free, with the person who'd lead the work. You describe the problem; you get a straight read on whether it's worth solving and how.
- 02
A written scope and a real number
What will be built, what won't, and what it costs, in plain language. No sales deck.
- 03
A working version in 2–4 weeks
Something you can use and test early, not a roadmap. Changes happen while they're still cheap.
- 04
Handover, or keep it running
Documented and handed to your team, or maintained with you after launch. Your call.
Who you'll work with
Biju Rajan
Founder, Veom Ventures. Biju is a technology and business consultant with more than two decades of experience turning big-picture vision into small, predictable deliverables. He leads every engagement personally, from scoping and architecture to hands-on build, and brings in trusted specialists when a project needs more hands or a particular skill.
That's deliberate. Most AI projects go wrong in the gap between the people who sell them and the people who build them. Here, the person you meet on the first call stays accountable for the work through to launch.
