About Us

How are we different?

Find another website that has what’s here at a reasonable price. You can’t.

Each week we post around 400-500 government reports, news releases, proposed rules, and more. We review throughout the day more than 600 government webpages for the Executive Office of the President, all 15 cabinet-level departments, over 275 federal agencies and subagencies, congress, the judiciary, over 30 intergovernmental organizations, and over 30 think tanks. Our database contains over 20,000 entries and 25,000 documents.

We cover everything the government has its hands in – in other words, everything. Without the journalism, and without the bias. The documents do the talking, not us.

What type of documents are posted here?

We break it down into about 60 document types, including news releases and advisories (over 8,000 at launch), official reports (over 4000), administrative actions, including rule-making and enforcement documents (over 1000), and remarks and press briefings (over 500).

What are our sources?

About 80% of the documents are from the United States federal government and about 15% are from intergovernmental organizations. Most of the rest are think tanks reports.

Tell me about your Collections

We keep them interesting and will add new collections regularly. Some of our initial collections are  The Dylan Mulvaney-Budweiser controversy, Daesh (ISIS) propaganda, killer manifestos, the quadrennial Global Trends reports by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and Putin meetings with U.S. Presidents.

What events do we track?

Our focus is live-streamed US Government events open to the public, such as the Federal Trade Commission’s bimonthly meetings.

Alert – we have alerts!

We post key weather alerts and advisories such as updates on major hurricanes, the weekly wildfire forecast and the weekly drought report. We post security alerts including changes to the terrorist threat level and cybersecurity advisories. We post product recall notices where the Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a press release. Most of those are issued Thursdays. We post food recall and public-health alerts issued by the FDA, CDC and USDA.

We track over 250 U.S. and international economic releases, often posting them within a few minutes of issuance by the agency.
