Reykjavík, Iceland, 22.11.2024 – Ceedr is proud to announce the launch of Spjallgrímur, a first-of-its-kind AI-powered chatbot designed to simplify Iceland’s 2024 parliamentary elections. This multilingual groundbreaking tool allows users to ask questions in almost any language and receive accurate, real-time answers tailored to their needs.
Spjallgrímur bridges the gap between complex political information and the public, making elections more accessible. With a focus on clarity and ease of use, the chatbot empowers voters to make informed decisions by explaining party policies, interpreting polling data, and even breaking down political jargon into simple terms.
Transforming Elections with Technology
Unlike general-purpose AI tools, Spjallgrímur focuses exclusively on Iceland’s 2024 elections. Drawing from reliable sources, including political party websites, Wikipedia, and polling agencies like Gallup and Maskína, it ensures users receive accurate and up-to-date information. The chatbot is refreshed with news every two hours and updated with critical statistics weekly, providing users with insights they can trust.
“Our vision with Spjallgrímur is to simplify politics for everyone, regardless of their level of familiarity with the subject,” says Haukur Jarl Kristjánsson, the creator of Spjallgrímur. “It’s more than a tool – a way to empower people to engage with democracy in their language.”
Breaking Barriers with Multilingual Accessibility
Spjallgrímur’s unique multilingual capabilities allow users to ask questions in their preferred language and receive responses tailored to their understanding. This feature ensures that Icelandic elections are accessible to international observers, expatriates, and Iceland’s diverse population.
“We wanted to create something beyond Icelandic politics – a tool that anyone can use to understand and engage,” says Kristjánsson.
