Current, cited U.S. law your agent can call, with the money behind it attached.

Give your AI the record itself: the U.S. Code and C.F.R. as citable sections, bills in Congress and all 50 states, and the public companies lobbying on federal bills. Bills, law and lobbying filings come back with their official source, and each bill with its stage, last action and date, in Claude, in any MCP client, or through our API.

Claude Opus 5.5 alone against Claude Opus 5.5 with the Amendment connector, on four questions about what happened after its June 2026 training cutoff. Web search was off in both runs. A point means an answer with its source.

Where does the Russia and Iran sanctions bill stand?

I can’t confirm where that bill stands. My training data ends in June 2026, so anything after that is past what I know.

Congress.gov will have its latest action.

Where does the Russia and Iran sanctions bill stand?

Used Amendment · show_bill

It’s law. It was signed on September 18, 2026. Here’s the record, with the companies that lobbied on it.

H.R. 5334Law · No. 119-111

Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026

Became Public Law No. 119-111 · Sep 18, 2026

9 public companies lobbied on it

Law since Sep 18, 2026

The questionClaude aloneClaude with Amendment

  • Where does the Russia and Iran sanctions bill stand? No answer. Its training data ends June 2026. Law since Sep 18, 2026 as P.L. 119-111, with 9 public companies that lobbied on it
  • Is the ROAD to Housing Act law? Won’t guess. “I’d risk inventing one.” Yes, P.L. 119-101, law July 11, 2026. House 358 to 32, Senate 85 to 5
  • What is Home Depot lobbying on right now? Background from memory. No 2026 spend figure. $2.46M so far in 2026, and 16 pending bills named in its 2026 reports, led by retail crime
  • Who lobbies on the Remote Access Security Act? Guesses industries. Names no companies. 13 public companies, led by Synopsys

Why not web search

Some answers aren’t on any web page. We run the join.

Search hands the model pages to read, reconcile and summarize, and someone still has to check the result. Amendment hands it fields and the official source.

The companies lobbying on a bill come from joining Senate LDA filings to SEC registrants. The companies whose 10-K names a bill or a code section come from reading the filings themselves. Because the records are already linked, the next question is one more lookup, not a fresh search.

One question

“I own NVIDIA. Which export bill is closest to law, and who else does it hit?”

  1. The holding
    • NVIDIA
  2. Its export bills
    • Chip Security Act
    • AI OVERWATCH Act
    • Remote Access Security Act
  3. The law under all three
    • Export Control Reform Act
  4. Lobbied on the House-passed bill
    • Synopsys
    • Oracle
    • Alphabet

Who it’s for

Jobs spread across separate tools today, in one flow.

TeamThey askIn AmendmentElsewhere

  • Funds and finance

    Which pending bills hit this company, and what law do they change? Ticker to lobbying filings and 10-K disclosures, to the bills named, to the code sections they amend, to the rules on those sections. A lobbying-by-ticker feed, a bill tracker and a legal research tool, joined by hand.
  • Compliance and GRC

    What rules would this bill touch? Bill to the U.S. Code sections it amends, to the C.F.R. parts that rest on them. A policy bill page, then a lawyer in a research tool, or a GRC tool once the rule is final.
  • Government relations

    Track this bill, then move people on it. Follow, get the status alert, launch an ask, supporters co-sign by text, delivery to officials, donations. A tracker plus its grassroots module, and donations in a separate payments tool.
  • Newsrooms

    Which lobbyists gave to this bill’s sponsors? Bill to sponsors, to lobbyist contributions, to the clients lobbying on the same bill. A bill tracker for sponsors and a money site for contributions, matched in a spreadsheet.
  • Legal and product

    Answer a legal or policy question inside our own AI agent. Any MCP client: search, resolve a citation, read a section’s history, and show cards for bills, law, companies and politicians. One MCP vendor for bills, another for legal research, a third for market data. No shared keys.
  • Wealth platforms

    Did the new tax law change anything for this client? The enacted law, the code sections it amended and the dates, in words an advisor can repeat. A model reading web pages, and an advisor checking its work.

Against the field

Policy trackers, legal research and market data each hold part of it.

We compared Amendment with eleven vendors: seven policy trackers, two legal and compliance research services, and two market-data services.

Built not to guess

Four ways an AI answer on legislation goes wrong, and what we return instead.

It calls a bill law

The enacted flag turns true only when the record has a public law number and date. Until then, it’s a bill.

It misreads the stage

The AI OVERWATCH Act still reads Introduced after a 42 to 2 committee vote. We return the stage and the last action side by side, each with its own date.

It summarizes old text

The summary of the ROAD to Housing Act predates the text that became law, and the record flags it.

It reads a gap as a clean result

An empty answer says which case it is: no match, nothing held or a failed lookup.

Sign-in and plans

Try it free. A plan when your team builds on it.

Compare plans

Sign in, no keys

The connector signs in with your Amendment account through OAuth, the same one your team uses on the web.

Your plan sets your tools

Pick your organization at sign-in. Its plan decides which tools your AI sees, and everyone on the team gets the same ones.

Reads public records

The connector writes only your follows and read marks, and your client asks before it removes a follow.

Run it on your own questions.

Ask us for the 60-second side-by-side and a pilot. We set up the connector for your organization, and your team runs its real questions through it.
