Daylight

A public records request portal inside your own site: tracking numbers, your state's response clock, extensions with reasons, denials with exemptions, and a public log that never names who asked.

For small cities, counties, school districts and special districts.

The state presets cite their statutes on the Settings screen; have your attorney confirm the one you use. Not legal advice.

What it does

Inside Daylight

The form

[daylight] - what records, in what form, and an email or mailing address. No name required. A tracking number and the answer-by date come back at once.

Check on it

with the tracking number and the email it was made with.

The clock

a preset for your state or your own numbers, in business days (skipping weekends and your holidays) or calendar days. Overdue and due-soon requests are named on the staff screen.

Extensions

once, with a reason the requester sees, no further than the law allows.

Closing

with the date answered; anything withheld only with the exemption cited; and a public summary that may not name the requester.

The public log

[daylight_log] - number, what was asked for, dates, outcome. No names, no emails.
