Data-driven reporting for a more transparent Congress

Congressional coverage is often partisan and bereft of data or context. Legis1 exists to fix that.

Legis1 is a political intelligence platform tracking and analyzing legislation, votes, hearings, communications, lobbying, campaign finance, and the networks of influence that shape policy in Washington. Legis1 subscribers in Congress, federal agencies, corporations, lobbying firms, nonprofits, media, and academia have powerful, data-driven tools to understand, engage, and shape the policy process.

Legis1’s newsroom is built on top of that foundation. Editors determine what stories are executed; the data platform is leveraged to establish a deep fact base, AI-assisted processes act according to instructions to assemble the data into drafts, and journalists add, edit, and verify. Our goal is to bring deep, systematic, data-driven, nonpartisan coverage at scale.

We hope that Legis1 will bring a new level of coverage and insight to Washington and help it work a little better for the people.
