Civic intelligence infrastructure for a transparent democracy.
Every vote. Every dollar. Every trade. One platform.
Capitol Trace aggregates 25+ public government data sources into connected, searchable intelligence that any citizen, journalist, or researcher can use — completely free. We track the current congressional roster — how they vote, who funds them, what they trade, who lobbies them — and surface patterns that no single database reveals.
We don't tell you who to vote for. We show you the record. You decide what it means.
