I’m really happy with the contact data I got from success.ai. After talking to a bunch of other providers, they were either way too expensive or didn’t offer the best implementation options. But success.ai was a great fit for me!

Data Sources & Collection

This data is sourced from the Senate Office of Public Records, which is the official repository for lobbying registration and disclosure information. The Lobbying Disclosure Act (LDA) REST API is a publicly available API that allows for access to data that is reported to the U.S. Congress under the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995, as amended. We use proprietary algorithms to query for data from the LDA REST API, transform it, and productize it.

Key Differentiators

We created LobbyingData.com to address the need for more transparent and accessible information into the world of lobbying. Many people know that companies like Google, Pfizer, and Lockheed are lobbying the federal government, but few know the extent to what is happening. How much are they spending on it? Which agencies are they targeting? and most importantly, what bills are they lobbying on, and why?

We answer all of these questions by transforming difficult to understand government information into easy-to-understand and actionable datasets and information. As an example we’ll use the recent CHIPS Act that was passed by Congress. We tracked every company lobbying on the bill in real-time, allowing our users to quickly identify potential opportunities with firms that supported the bill, such as which one could receive an advanced manufacturing tax credit, and who sought to secure chips act funding.

When the CHIPS Act hit Congress, we saw research firms publishing reports on the potential impact of the legislation on the semiconductor industry. With lobbying data, you could tie this back to the individual company level. And recently, a new lobbying ETF was launched, built off the notion that political capital is an overlooked intangible asset that could produce excess stock returns.

To summarize, our data makes it easy to see, both on a real-time and 24 year historical basis:

  • Every entity that has ever lobbied the federal government.
  • The dollar amount they spend on it
  • The names and prior government experience of the exact lobbyists they hired
  • And most importantly, why: the exact bills and specific issues lobbied on.

We’ve mapped out every entity involved in lobbying across time, from 1999 to present, and to their ticker symbols so you can easily gain insight from money in politics, whether its another variable in your research, a new input for your models, or another layer in your due diligence.

LobbyingData.com provides exclusive access to alternative data on American lobbying, by turning government information into user-friendly, adaptable datasets. With over 1.6 million lobbying contracts, 13,000 lobbying firms, 109,000 clients, and 78,000 lobbyists in our database, it’s the most comprehensive source of lobbying information available.

Data Privacy

LobbyingData.com doesn’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it, and we don’t share your personal information with anyone.

LobbyingData.com does not collect any personally identifiable information (‘PII’) or other personal data as part of its products and services, with exception to the names of the lobbyist’s working on individual lobbying contracts as well as past government professional experience, which is publicly available information published from our original data source (LDA.SENATE.GOV).
