The problem

Tens of thousands of comments per rule. You can't read them all.

The comment that changes your read on a rulemaking can land any day, buried in a PDF, filed by someone you've never heard of. A missed filing today becomes a blind spot tomorrow. We make sure that doesn't happen.

can land on a single rule

Thousands of comments, no time

A significant rule can draw tens of thousands of comments. No one can read them all — but the one that matters is in there somewhere.

The substance is buried in PDFs

The real arguments arrive as attachments, scattered across a slow government site that was never built for analysis.

Easy to miss what matters

A single late-filed comment can change your read on a rulemaking. Today it means refreshing regulations.gov and hoping.

How it works

Understand any rulemaking at a glance — then go as deep as you need.

Understand

See the whole picture without reading it all.

Every comment is read and classified the moment it posts. Open a rule and the gist is already there — stance, who's weighing in, and how much is an orchestrated campaign.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What data is this built on?+

The public comment record at regulations.gov — the dockets, documents, and public comments filed on federal rules. We read and classify comments continuously as they're posted. We don't cover grants, bills, or hearings; this is about rulemaking comments.

How do alerts work?+

Follow the rules, topics, and agencies you care about. When a relevant new comment is posted, we email you the same day — with the stance, the commenter type, and whether it's part of a form-letter campaign already attached, so you can triage from your inbox.

Can I add my whole team?+

Yes. Accounts are organization-based: add as many seats as you need at $180/mo each, all on the same plan. Everyone shares the rules and topics your organization tracks.

How is this different from the big platforms?+

Broad government-affairs suites try to cover everything and price like enterprise software. We're focused: we go deep on public comments — campaign detection, stance and commenter-type breakdowns, individual-comment access, and typed alerts — and we're self-serve at a flat per-seat price.

How current is the data?+

We process new comments as they post, so a rule's breakdown reflects today's record — not a months-old export.

Stop missing what matters on your rules.
