From “how do we compare?” to an answer — in minutes.
GovFeeds turns 870,000+ public Facebook posts from 5,000+ city and county governments into peer benchmarks you can take into any meeting. Here’s the workflow.
Start with a question
Search every Facebook post from every U.S. city and county government account we track. Look up a specific government, a topic (“road closure,” “hiring,” “parks”), or a phrase — across the whole country or just your state.
The index updates daily, so you’re searching what peers posted this week, not last quarter.
Narrow to your real peers
Filter by geography, population band, time window, engagement tier, and post type. The point isn’t “all governments” — it’s governments like yours. Compare a 20,000-person town to other 20,000-person towns, not to a major metro.
Save a filter set as a peer group and reuse it every month.
See exactly how you compare
GovFeeds auto-generates engagement benchmarks — reactions, comments, and shares per post — against your peer set’s median and top quartile. No spreadsheet wrangling, no manual averaging.
The answer to “are we doing well?” stops being a guess and becomes a number with context.
Illustrative. Your real numbers populate from live data on day one.
Walk in ready
Export auto-generated visualizations for your monthly comms report, download the underlying posts as CSV, or request a custom monthly report comparing the accounts you choose to the peers you choose.
When council asks “how do we compare?”, the slide is already made.
Real posts. Real engagement. Refreshed daily.
GovFeeds isn’t survey data or estimates. It’s the actual public Facebook activity of local governments, collected and measured the same way for every account so comparisons are apples-to-apples.
