When accessibility is automatic, engagement is easy.
OpenBill turns raw government data into something you can actually use. Users can read bills and other public records, track movement as bills progress through Congress, receive updates when status changes, and engage with candidates by sharing support or opposition, asking questions, and comparing stated positions to legislative activity.
Political information is abundant but impractical: bills are spread across portals, updated constantly, and written in technical language. Citizens need a single, trustworthy place to read the current text, see where a bill is in the process, and understand who supports what—without the noise.
OpenBill turns “raw data everywhere” into “clear answers in one place.”
