About
We build the record your team works from.
POLISCOPE began as poliscope.vote, a free civic site that reads bills, votes and local-government meetings for residents. POLISCOPE Professional puts the same record to work for the people who track legislation for a living.
How we work
Four rules the product is built on.
Official sources first
Bills, text, votes and hearings come from each legislature’s own site wherever it publishes them, and every record names its source.
Receipts, not claims
Summaries quote the text they rely on. A quote that doesn’t match the stored text isn’t shown.
Say what we don’t cover
The coverage page is measured from the database every hour, and a state without bills says “Rolling out”.
Your data stays yours
Workspace data is isolated per organization in the application layer, every change is recorded, and any list exports with your notes.
The team
Two founders, in Florida.
Every demo is run by one of us, and what you ask for in it reaches the roadmap directly.
