Verge gives every suburb in South East Queensland one card: what is being built, planned and done there, who represents it, what was promised and when, and what the record says happened. Every line links to where it was read.
Verge is made by Planada. It is independent: it is not a government site, and no council or department runs it or checks it.
What is checked, and how
- Quotes are the source's own words, at most 100 words, with who said it, when, and a link to the document.
- A line's section (being built, planned, done, changed along the way) comes from the status the record gives it, not from a judgement made here.
- "Late" means the promised date has passed with no record of completion as of the card's date. "Dropped later" means a later official document removed it.
- Each card shows the date it was read.
What is not covered
- Only what the harvested records say. Some councils and some years are not harvested yet; each card's "What we can't see" lists the known gaps.
- Records can change between reads. Check the linked source before acting on anything here.
- Not legal, financial or planning advice.
Ask
- Answers are drafted by an AI model from this suburb's record, then checked by code against the quoted sources; anything that fails the check is cut.
- Your question is sent to an AI provider (DeepInfra, US) and not stored by Verge.
- Ask does not answer on conduct, private addresses or prices.
Corrections
Found an error? Email with the suburb and the line. Corrections are reviewed within two weeks and noted on the card.
Privacy
- No accounts. Saved places live in your browser only.
- The server and Cloudflare log visitor addresses for up to 14 days, as any website does.
- The map tiles come from Mapbox and the fonts from Google; those services receive your address when the page loads.
- Questions typed into Ask go to DeepInfra (US) and are not stored by Verge.
