FiscalNote Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: NOTE) (“FiscalNote”), a leading AI-driven enterprise SaaS technology provider of policy and global intelligence, today announced that the Company’s award-winning, AI-driven local policy coverage has reached a new milestone, with the addition of its 5,000,000th (5 million) local policy document to its proprietary database, which covers more than 16,000 local governments and school districts across the U.S. and the industry’s highest number of tracked localities in the nation.

Organizations of all types need to anticipate and understand what is happening in the thousands of local governments across the U.S., especially in light of the rapidly changing landscape. The 2024 national elections brought change not only to Washington, D.C. – with the onset of a new Trump Administration as well as a change of party control in the U.S. Senate – but also sweeping change at myriad other levels of government, including county, city, town, school district, and other municipal bodies. There are approximately 500,000 local officials – which is 96% of the elected or appointed lawmakers in the entire nation.

Local government officials are anticipating that a new cycle of active policymaking by the Trump Administration and U.S. Congress will have a direct and tangible impact on local entities – quickly impacting how municipalities enact, or challenge, these coming changes. In addition, as seen in prior years, newly elected and existing lawmakers at the local level will introduce their own agendas with a flurry of new budgets, statutes, ordinances, and codes. Taken together, this significantly impacts organizations and enterprises with a vested interest in understanding, monitoring, and aligning their objectives and goals with new local proposals and policies.

FiscalNote’s award-winning, AI-powered SaaS platform is positioned to equip customers with a full toolkit of civic intelligence and monitoring services for the city, county, municipal, and school board levels of local government. Leveraging its proprietary AI technology to collect, process, interpret, sort and tag this vast range of unstructured data, FiscalNote:

  • recently broadened coverage of over 16,000 total local entities across the U.S., including counties, cities, towns, school districts, local and regional commissions and authorities, and state boards.

  • expanded its stakeholder database of 100,000 local government contacts that empowers customers with local policy interests and agendas to contact and engage with elected officials, city and county staff, and other decision makers and influencers.

  • tracks city and county committee meeting minutes and agendas from more than 12,000 municipalities across the U.S., as well as more than 4,000 school districts and hundreds of state boards.

  • scans over 600,000 documents each week from these local governing and regulatory bodies enables customers to be able to respond and take swift action.

  • provides customers with a SaaS-based, custom dashboard and daily reports which deliver the insights to help government relations professionals save time, eliminate manual work, and stay informed on any discussion or activity around any local policy issues they need to track.

Our AI-driven SaaS platform provides customers with immediate access to accurate policy information from thousands of local entities nationwide, and actively processes hundreds of thousands of documents in thousands of municipalities and school districts.
