For councils and district assemblies
Fewer residents out of work. More local firms. More spending kept in the district.
Shown ward by ward, every month, from payment records.
The problem
Local jobs and spending leak out of the district, and councils have no live view of their local economy.

Questions councils ask
What results can we see today?
CivicGrid 1.0 is built to production standard and ready to license. Each licensee's results are measured from its own payment records and published only once measured. The research on our Evidence page is published research, not a CivicGrid result.
Who holds the money?
Only licensed payment providers, under the licensee's own accounts. Neither Sceamdo nor the platform ever holds anyone's money.
Who owns the data?
The licensee, as data controller. Sceamdo is a processor only when it hosts the licensee's copy.
Is there any capital cost?
No. You license the system. Nothing needs to be bought or built: no vehicles, buildings or equipment.
Can it run in our own cloud?
Yes. CivicGrid Sovereign runs in your own cloud, so personal data stays in your country.
What does it cost?
A setup fee and an annual licence, plus hosting paid in advance if Sceamdo hosts it. Some licences add optional revenue share or results fees. Prices are shared with verified institutions after the demo.
