Frequently asked questions

Bill Radar tracks legislation and regulations across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Congress — bills, sponsors, roll-call votes, committee referrals, action history, similar bills across states, and full bill text, plus federal rulemaking with comment deadlines.

Yes. Alongside relevance-ranked full-text search, Bill Radar offers semantic search that matches on meaning — so a search for "gig-worker pay" can surface a bill titled "independent contractor classification." Semantic search is available on the Professional and Enterprise plans.

Yes. Every bill gets an AI plain-language explainer — a one-line summary, a short TL;DR, a deeper read, and "what this means for you" notes for the audiences you choose. It's a fast way in; the official bill text is always one click away.

We sync from official sources on a recurring schedule, with hot-bill sweeps for fast-moving legislation, so new actions typically appear within hours of being published by the source.

Directly from official, first-party government sources — each state's own legislature website, Congress.gov, the Federal Register / Regulations.gov, ProPublica Congress, the SEC, and the Senate Lobbying Disclosure database. We don't editorialize the underlying records.

Yes. Public bill and regulation search is free, and a free account includes a saved search with email alerts and one branded embeddable widget — no credit card required.

Yes. The Professional plan includes a 14-day free trial so you can use multi-state coverage and semantic search before you commit.

Bill Radar, the embeddable widgets, and the Bill Radar API have published tiers on our pricing page. Advocacy software and campaigns-as-a-service are scoped to your goals, so those are a custom quote — book a strategy call and we'll put together pricing.

Yes — the Bill Radar API is a clean REST API over bills, votes, legislators, regulations, scorecards, search, and advocacy-org target discovery, with cursor pagination and an updated_since parameter on every collection for incremental sync. See the developer docs.

Drop a snippet on your site to show a live, auto-updating bill tracker. The free tier includes one branded widget; paid tiers add white-labeling, more widget types, embed analytics, and lead routing to you.

It lets your supporters send one-click, personalized messages to their own legislators based on their address. You can publish a branded Advocacy Hub — your own colors, logo, and custom domain — with bill-linked campaigns, a find-your-legislator lookup, and micro-surveys. It's sold as a custom quote scoped to your audience and goals — book a strategy call to get started.

Yes. The Advocate CRM keeps your contacts, their consent, and a bill-linked timeline of every action they take — email, call, petition, survey — and moves them through advocate stages automatically. You can import contacts by CSV, build segments, and sync with Salesforce. It rides on the advocacy quote, sized to your plan.

A done-for-you option: we identify the right targets and run the advocacy play for you. Like advocacy software, it's a custom quote — book a strategy call.
