Govbase tracks bills from text to social media bias

Govbase provides a comprehensive view of federal legislation by tracking bills, executive orders, and regulations from official sources like Congress.gov and the Federal Register. The platform uses an AI pipeline to generate plain-language summaries and analyze demographic impacts of each policy.

What makes Govbase unique is how it connects official documents to real-world discourse. Users can see bias-rated news coverage from multiple outlets alongside social media posts from politicians on X, Bluesky, and Truth Social. This creates a complete picture of how legislation moves from proposal to public debate.

The free platform works across web, iOS, and Android, allowing users to follow specific bills from their original text through media framing to representative statements. The developer is actively seeking community feedback on the data pipeline and potential policy areas to expand.
