**Zone**: Yellow · **Municipalities and the public sector**

## The situation

A proposal for the municipal council is long and hard. Citizens should be able to understand it.

## How it works

1. You paste the text of the proposal.
2. **The Schleuse replaces secrets.** Names, addresses, identifiers and credentials are replaced with stand-in words. This happens on your side, not in the cloud. Amounts and dates stay as they are.
3. **The AI answers, the Schleuse translates back.** The answer contains the stand-in words. On your side they turn back into the real names.

## Example

**Your question to the AI:** Explain this proposal in plain language. What is to be decided? What does it cost?

**What is in your text:**

> Proposal of **Gemeinde Beispielburg**:
> Renovation of the outdoor pool, cost 1,250,000 EUR, decision on 18 November 2026.

**What the cloud AI sees:**

> Proposal of **Municipality Alpha**:
> Renovation of the outdoor pool, cost 1,250,000 EUR, decision on 18 November 2026.
