Records requests are coming in record numbers for many public agencies, and it's often difficult to keep up. Manually tracking these requests through spreadsheets or paper forms is inefficient and no longer viable due to resulting in late responses or lost requests.
NextRequest streamlines the process of fulfilling FOIA requests and puts your tasks all in one place.
Records Request Management is All We Do
Our only product is records requests software for governments. We continuously update our FOIA request platform and services to meet the legal compliance and technical needs of government bodies across the United States.
Handle Requests from Start to Finish with NextRequest
Receive requests
Accept requests through a modern online portal. Make receiving FOIA requests and seamless as possible. NextRequest even connects requesters with self-serve information, making records previously published immediately available and avoiding a request submission entirely.
Track and process
Route to staff automatically and remind them when tasks are due. Keep up with the status of requests through every stage of your workflow. Redact a few, or hundreds, of documents at once. Work collaboratively and review for risk.
Release records
Send documents of any type or size to an individual or release to the general public. Create custom invoices and accept payments for large requests.
Best-in-class Redaction Tool
NextRequest's RapidReview is the most advanced document redaction on the market
RapidReview offers true draft and bulk redaction, setting it apart from other redaction tools
Draft redactions are autosaved, and you can move, edit, or delete them. Timestamps show when actions were taken, and teammates can pick up where you left off. Finalize redactions when you’re ready, individually or through bulk actions.
With bulk redaction, you can redact information from not one but hundreds of documents at one time, make comments, and give reasons for batches of redactions. When documents are ready, you can take bulk actions to move, delete, download, zip, finalize, or release many documents at once.
