Amendment started when a friend—a professional lobbyist—had to research land dedication rules across Texas. We realized: if even a lobbyist struggles with this, what chance does a small business owner have? Or a concerned citizen? Or a nonprofit volunteer?
We’re software developers who’ve been building civic tech since 2010. We knew there had to be a better way than deciphering raw legal code or buying enterprise software from the last century. So we built our own legal database and AI from the ground up. No outdated sources, no hallucinations—only current law and legislation direct from the source.
And we made it accessible to everyone, from concerned citizens to policy professionals. Give us a try, or tell us what you need.
