Acknowledgments

We would like to thank Matt Stempeck who researched the use of AI in digital participation. Stempeck is also the author of our Guide to Digital Participation Platforms and the Civic Tech Field Guide curator. The ratings have greatly benefited from his years of research into digital participation platforms. 

Further, we would like to thank the members of the Digital Participation Committee Katya Petrikevich (Czech Republic), Stéphane Dubé (Canada), Caroline Khene (United Kingdom), Bess Lee (Taiwan), and Ana Doria (Argentina), Su Yun Woo (Netherlands), Hao Xiang (China), Charlie Martial Ngounou (Cameroon), for their time, input, and feedback. 

Finally, we would like to thank everyone who has used the ratings and provided feedback to help us improve them. We especially appreciate the digital participation platform users who responded to our surveys, as well as the platform developers and administrators who shared the survey, participated in our developer surveys, and engaged with us throughout the process.
