The school district buried its survey in a 3,000 page PDF, so I made it searchable

His local school division released the raw answers to a touchy redistricting survey as one PDF of more than 3,000 pages, which nobody could realistically read. He used AI to write scripts that pulled the answers out and built a public web page where people can search the responses and filter them by keyword and by school.

How it works

  1. Download the 3,000 plus page survey PDF
  2. Have the AI write scripts to pull out the individual responses
  3. Build a web page with search and filters by keyword and school affiliation
  4. Publish it with a guide for neighbors

Why it’s worth knowing

A document the district could call public while nobody could read it is now something any parent can search in seconds.
