How Does KYF Work?
Step 1:
Citizen Calls Dispatch or Officer Initiates Traffic Stop
The citizen receives a SMS message or the officer provides a QR code for the citizen scan and share their feedback on their interaction. The call or incident ID will allow the feedback to be tied to the specific incident.
Step 2:
Citizen Provides Feedback and a Rating
After receiving a SMS message or by scanning the QR code, citizens will be able to rate their experience on a scale of 1-5. They’ll also be able to provide direct feedback.
Step 3:
Department Analyzes Feedback Data
Departments have on-demand access to their officers' feedback. Continuous feedback data provides up-to-the-minute community sentiment and captures the positive feedback officers receive.
