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 disclosures for civic tech and research. Financial data for analysts. Datasets where the raw source exists but the clean API doesn't.

Our Focus
03

Free & Paid, Clearly Labeled

Some products are free because the data should be accessible. Others carry a price because they require proprietary modeling. We're upfront about which is which. No bait-and-switch.

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

The congressional API ingests directly from official House Clerk Periodic Transaction Reports and Senate Electronic Financial Disclosures. We don't scrape blogs or aggregate aggregators. Primary sources or nothing.

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 congressional trades by member, ticker, party, chamber, state, date range, transaction type, and amount. 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. curl it, fetch it, integrate it in whatever language you use.

05

Honest About What We Are

We provide data, not investment advice. The congressional API surfaces public STOCK Act filings — it doesn't imply trading signals. Use the data; make your own decisions.

Let's Talk.

Questions about our APIs, data methodology, or integration help? We're building in public and actively talking to developers who want to shape what comes next.
