Story

I built an open-source alternative to Citizen App's paid 911 feed for San Francisco.

It streams live dispatch data from SF's official open data portal, uses an LLM to translate police codes into readable summaries, and auto-redacts sensitive locations (shelters, hospitals, etc.).

Built it at a hack night after getting annoyed that Citizen is the only real-time option and they paywall it.

Happy to discuss the technical approach or take feedback.
