Govbase tracks every bill, executive order, and federal regulation from official sources (Congress.gov, Federal Register, White House).

Media coverage is optimized for outrage, not insight. The Solution. I built a digital public infrastructure that: 1. Ingests & Sterilizes: Parses raw bills (PDF/XML) from US & PL APIs. Uses LLMs (Vertex AI, temp=0, strict JSON) to strip political spin. 2. Civic Algorithm: The main feed isn't sorted by an editorial board. It's sorted by user votes ("Shadow Parliament"). What the community cares about rises to the top. 3. Civic Projects:…

Congressional trading data is relatively commoditized, but I couldn't find any open-source version with the features I wanted. The data is lagged (median 28 days from trade to disclosure, and 19% miss this deadline), but there's still interesting patterns to explore.
