Built for Developers
01

Clean, Documented APIs

Every dataset we ship is behind a well-documented REST API with consistent JSON responses, deep filtering, and predictable pagination. No scraping, no CSV dumps, no guesswork.

Core Principle
02

Useful Data First

We pick datasets that developers actually need but can't easily get in clean form. Congressional trades, federal contracts, corporate lobbying — datasets where the raw source exists but the clean API doesn't.

Our Focus
03

One Key, Commercial Use OK

All three datasets behind a single API key. Commercial use is included — no restrictive licensing, no bait-and-switch. Use the data in your apps, research, or products.

How We Build

Every product follows the same principles: get the data right, document the API clearly, and let developers integrate in minutes.

01

Source from Authoritative Data

Congressional trades from House Clerk PTRs and Senate eFD filings. Federal contracts from USASpending. Lobbying data from Senate LDA disclosures. Primary sources or nothing — we don't scrape blogs or aggregate aggregators.

02

Clean It Properly

Raw government filings are messy — inconsistent names, variable date formats, unstructured amount ranges. We normalize, deduplicate, and validate before anything hits the API. You get clean JSON, not raw PDFs.

03

Deep Filtering, Not Just Dumps

Every API supports granular query parameters. Filter trades by member and ticker, contracts by agency and contractor, lobbying by registrant and issue area. Get exactly the slice you need.

04

REST + JSON, Always

No SOAP, no GraphQL experiments, no proprietary SDKs required. Standard REST endpoints, JSON responses, API key auth via apikey header. curl it, fetch it, integrate it in whatever language you use.

05

Honest About What We Are

We provide data, not investment advice. Congressional trades, federal contracts, lobbying records — public filings surfaced through clean APIs. Use the data; make your own decisions.
