Civly combines licensed voter data, federal and state campaign-finance records, court and corporate filings, watchlists, and social and media coverage in one searchable platform.
Civly datasets also ship on the Snowflake Marketplace.
Civly is an AI intelligence platform for campaigns, committees, and partners. Every service draws on the same unified data — here's what each one powers.
A comprehensive, sourced research dossier on any candidate or public figure, drawing on roughly five dozen data sources across finance, voting, court, social, news, and screening.
Explore Research Books → 2Programmatic access for partners: research reports, multi-platform social analysis, court-opinion search across 10.7 million opinions, real-time screening, and a bulk export of the full research database.
Read the API docs → 3The hub where your team searches every source at once, audits AI narratives across seven engines, builds donor-network intelligence, and turns findings into campaign-ready content.
Explore Command Center → 4National donor profiles combining giving history, party, capacity, and a verified way to reach each person — built on the voter file and the campaign-finance record, with prospecting lists and dossiers.
Explore Donor Prospecting →Coverage across fourteen platforms, plus round-the-clock TV news capture, diarized video and audio transcription, influencer and journalist discovery, reputation monitoring, and media impact readouts that measure what an appearance actually produced.
Address, employment, finance, and lobbying verification, FEC-ready filing, and donor screening against more than forty watchlists.
Explore Compliance →Civly loads official voter files directly from the states — 19 states and DC, 96.9 million registered voters, with their vote history, refreshed as each state publishes. Mobiles and emails can be added from vetted data partners and matched to each voter. One schema across every state, so a list built in one state works the same way in the next.
| What's on the record | What it covers |
|---|---|
| States on file | Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, DC, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont and Washington, each loaded from the state’s own file. |
| Registration & status | Registration date and status, and party in the states that register by party. |
| Vote history | Whether each voter turned out in past primaries and general elections, as far back as each state publishes: 546 million rows of vote history. |
| Mobiles & emails | Cell phones and emails added from vetted data partners and matched to each voter, alongside any phone or email the state publishes on the file. |
| Addresses | Residential and mailing addresses from the state file, standardized and mapped to each voter’s precinct. |
| Demographics | Age and gender where the state publishes them, and race where the state records it. Where a file carries no birth dates, ages are estimated and labeled as estimates. |
| District assignments | Congressional, state senate, state house, county and precinct, as the state assigns them. |
| Party & turnout estimates | Where a state records no party, each voter gets an estimated party, marked as estimated. In Ohio, party comes from the primary ballots each voter chose. The Civly Turnout Score rates each voter’s likelihood to vote in 11 states. |
| Neighborhood & census | Census and geographic detail around each household, with population, income, education and housing by district and county from the Census Bureau’s 2024 five-year American Community Survey. |
180+ data sources across finance, voting, court, wealth, influence, risk, media, nonprofit funding, and college athletics — grouped below into the families you would search them by, and normalized so you can search them together.

New Hampshire is refreshed daily, 2016 to the present. Where no statewide system covers a local race, county portals are ingested directly. Spending is covered alongside giving — Kansas expenditure filings are loaded, including the scanned paper filings, read column by column so payee names come through clean.

| Congressional hearings | GovInfo hearing transcripts since 1995: a member’s own statements, and anyone’s appearances as a witness, checked against the Congress.gov witness list. Passages are cited as entered into the hearing record. |
| Committee testimony | Who testified on a bill and on which side, from the hearing record. Live in Ohio, with more states to follow. |
| Floor amendments & motions | Amendments and tabling motions pulled from the chamber journals — the procedural votes that decide what a bill becomes. Recorded votes on resolutions filed under a bill number are read from the journals as well. Live in Ohio, with more states to follow. |
| Federal bills & votes | Every federal bill since 2003 and roll-call votes, with a legislative-effectiveness score for each member. |
| Congressional Record | Floor statements by members of Congress, 1994 to the present — the largest body of attributable, on-the-record material a member leaves behind. Statements are bound to the member by official identifier, so each statement belongs to the right legislator. Each extract is labeled as entered into the Record, because members can insert remarks they did not deliver on the floor. |
| Congressional earmarks | The community projects members of Congress directed spending to in the fiscal 2022 to 2024 appropriations, as tracked by GAO, with the requesting member named and obligations and outlays kept distinct from the amount appropriated. |

| Prediction markets | Live implied win probabilities from Polymarket and Kalshi. |
| Election results & history | Official state canvass data running 2020 through 2026, covering every office on the ballot — in the 2022 and 2024 cycles alone, 39,739 races and 131,005 candidacies across all 50 states and DC, drawn out of 30.7 million precinct-level rows. Candidate names are indexed, so what a person has won or lost is one lookup. Multi-seat races are reported as multi-seat races, and write-ins and bookkeeping lines are left out of the candidacy count. See which courthouse elections had no opponent → |
| Election schedules | The forward-looking counterpart to certified results: which offices are up for election in a given state and year, in all fifty states. Five states publish an offices-by-year chart and were transcribed directly; for the rest the schedule is built only from checkable facts — federal offices, governor, and legislature, with legislative cycles derived from term length and whether a chamber turns over all at once or half at a time. County offices are read from the state constitution in Texas, from statute for Michigan's county commissioners, and for Colorado's county clerks. Gaps are stated per state and per office. |
| Candidate filings | The 2026 candidate lists state election offices publish, read in 11 states: North Carolina, Virginia, Delaware, Colorado, New Hampshire, Maine, South Carolina, Idaho, Utah, Florida and West Virginia. Each candidate carries party, filing date and withdrawal status, and every download is kept, so a candidate who drops out stays on record. |
| Ballot measures | Certified ballot-measure results computed per legislative district from the state's own canvass, with the passage threshold and precinct membership handled in code. Live in Ohio, with more states to follow. |
| Political ads | Google political-ad transparency (advertisers, spend, and creatives) and the Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok ad libraries, plus the stations’ own FCC political files: 969 stations harvested in 54 markets across 11 states, with filed reservations read for who bought time, in which markets, at what gross cost, and for which flight dates. Cable orders come from Spectrum’s Ohio political files. |

| Local government | Council and commission meeting records: hundreds of thousands of agenda matters and minutes. |
| Municipal meeting video | Transcribed, speaker-labeled video of 7,272 city and county meetings across 22 states, 2008–2026 — roughly 1.3 million searchable passages, each linked to the exact moment in the source video. |

| Charitable gifts | Major philanthropic gifts, university and museum honor rolls, and the Forbes 400, plus the donor acknowledgement pages of selected nonprofits, where a listed name is treated as a lead. |
| Securities holdings | SEC filings: institutional 13F holdings, insider trades, private placements, and adviser records, plus FINRA BrokerCheck records for registered brokers. |
| Congressional finances | Member stock trades and net-worth estimates, plus the annual financial disclosures filed by both chambers, refreshed on a schedule. The 2025 Senate filings are in: 104 reports, 97 senators, 7,304 assets. Amended filings are kept alongside the original, so the figure you see is the amended one. |
| Foundation grants | 15.0 million grants read out of IRS filings and made searchable — 9,998,426 paid out by private foundations (990-PF) and 4,997,171 reported by the nonprofits that received them (990 Schedule I). Searchable three ways: what one funder has paid out, what one organization has taken in, and an open search by purpose, recipient state, amount band and year. Private-foundation contributors carry donor geography, enough to find the overlap between a subject's charitable giving and their political giving. See Grant Matching → |
| Who can apply, and by when | Read off the filings themselves: whether a funder accepts unsolicited requests at all — 69% of private foundations state that they only fund organizations they have already chosen — who to address a request to, the deadline, and the geography and field a funder restricts awards to. Where a foundation publishes application terms on its own website, those are read too, after the site is proved to belong to that foundation; that scan covers all 6,014 community foundations. 8,971 private foundations state on their latest return that they do accept unsolicited requests, and each one is published with what it paid out last year, its deadline and contact as filed, and the trustees who decide. Browse the Open Foundations explorer → |
| Open federal opportunities | A live feed of federal grant notices, run alongside the filings because a tax return describes a cycle that has already closed: 1,690 notices, 537 of them open to a 501(c)(3), 97% carrying a hard closing date. Sortable by deadline, so what is about to close surfaces first. |
| Calls, conferences & awards | Conferences, awards, pitch competitions and requests for proposals worth applying to, with the closing date read off the call page itself. Built from the noticeboards where solicitations are published, and refreshed weekly. Something passed on stops being suggested; something left unfinished returns once a new deadline is posted. |
| Nonprofit leadership | Nonprofit officers, directors, and key-employee compensation from IRS 990 filings. Tens of millions of records, plus revenue, contributions, expenses, salaries and net assets from every full Form 990, about 400,000 a year. Three further schedules are read from the same filings: related organizations, transactions with interested persons, and political and lobbying activity. |
| Tax-exempt status | Every organization the IRS recognizes as exempt, 1.96 million of them, with its type (501(c)(3), (c)(4) and the rest), whether gifts to it are deductible, 1.25 million revocations with reinstatements, and the e-Postcards small organizations file. |
| Physician payments | Pharmaceutical and device-maker payments to physicians, from CMS Open Payments — 105.7 million records, 2018 through 2025. |
| Provider directory | The full national registry every health-care provider is enrolled in (NPPES), including deactivated numbers, other names and practice locations, refreshed monthly. |
| Medicare prescribing | Part D prescribing totals for each clinician, 2023 and 2024 (1.42 million prescribers in 2024), linked by provider number to the provider directory and physician payments. Totals only; no individual drugs are named. |
| Clinical trials | The ClinicalTrials.gov registry: 604,950 studies and 1,015,517 named investigators. A study is tied to a doctor or researcher only when one of its sites is in their state. |
| Publications | Civly’s own full copy of OpenAlex, the public catalog of the world’s research: 132 million researchers, 476 million papers, 857 million researcher-to-paper links, 17.1 million grants, about 257,000 journals and repositories, 136,000 institutions, 45,700 funders, 10,700 publishers and 4,500 research topics. A subject’s record is checked against ORCID, Crossref and PubMed, with retractions, each paper’s funders and the grants they led. |
| Public payrolls | Named public-employee salaries, including 516,447 Georgia salaries for fiscal 2025, about 155,000 Texas employees and 105,313 Florida employees. |
| College finances & enrollment | Finances, staffing and fall enrollment for every college in the federal IPEDS survey — public, nonprofit and for-profit — from the 2024 survey year, with each school read on its own accounting form. |
| School district finances | Census revenue, spending, debt and enrollment for about 14,100 school districts a year, fiscal 2020 through 2024. |
| Research awards | NIH awards for fiscal 2023 through 2025 alongside NSF awards, keyed by application and fiscal year, so each subproject rolls up to its award. Award money is reported as the institution’s. |
| Federal disbursements | SBA PPP loans and USDA farm-subsidy payments, plus every SBA 7(a) and 504 loan approved since fiscal 1991 — 2.2 million loans with their reported status — and every award in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse since audit year 2016, 7.3 million award rows, each naming the entity the money passed through, so funding that arrived by way of a state or a parent nonprofit reads as such. |
| Employer benefit plans | Form 5500 filings and their financial schedules for every employer benefit plan reported to the Labor Department — 2.7 million filings, refreshed monthly. |

| Corporate families | Global legal-entity registry with parent and subsidiary links, plus state corporate registries — including New York, Colorado, Texas, Florida, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Oregon — for business registrations, officer roles, and sole-proprietor status. Millions of entities. |
| UK companies & owners | The UK company register and its beneficial-owner filings — the named people with significant control behind a British entity. Directorships are read from the live Companies House officer register and confirmed against birth year, with every company relationship listed one at a time. |
| Property ownership | The statewide assessor and GIS files states publish on every parcel: 54.0 million records loaded across 24 states and DC, from Florida’s 10.8 million on down, each stamped with its own as-of date, with the biggest counties loaded where a state publishes no single file. Every row carries who owns the parcel, where the tax bill is mailed, the sale dates and prices where the state publishes them, and the county’s assessed and market values. A namesake stays a disclosed lead, and property held through an LLC or a trust is attached only when the entity can be tied to the subject. Homestead flags and the owner’s mailing address are kept, so a primary-residence claim in two states at once, or a tax bill mailed outside the district, is in the record. |

A management role is kept distinct from an equity stake. |
| Banks & branches | Every FDIC-insured institution and branch, with quarterly financials for 2025 and 2026 to date, keyed so a bank and its Federal Reserve identity stay linked. |
| Power plants & utilities | Utilities, plants, generators and their owners from the EIA-860 survey, 2024 release, with operating, proposed and retired capacity kept separate. |
| Assisted housing | HUD multifamily properties with their financing, assistance contracts, contract rents, inspection scores and Section 202 loans, from the September 2026 snapshots. |

| Social platforms | Coverage across fourteen platforms: X, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Reddit, Bluesky, Substack, Truth Social, Snapchat, Rumble, Twitch, and Mastodon — with subject discovery reaching across the wider fediverse. Snapchat's pictures and video are read into words; TikTok reposts are collected and analyzed alongside original posts, which is often where someone shows what they endorse without writing a word of it; on Bluesky, posts by other people that name the subject are collected too, counted only when they also carry the subject’s handle, state or office; and Truth Social is read through the platform's own public API. |
| Archived pages & posts | Campaign sites for the subject and opponents, captured live and from the Wayback Machine, plus the recovered text of archived posts from the subject’s own accounts. |
| Professional & company signals | Hiring, expansion, funding, and leadership announcements from LinkedIn — the growth signals that say an organization is about to need something, pulled from the same feed as the mentions. |
| Podcast & radio | Appearance monitoring across podcast and radio — including shows you can't name in advance — with each appearance verified against the source audio. After the fact, every clip cut from an appearance is traced back to whoever posted it, counted alongside the press pickups it drew. |
| TV news | Four national news channels captured around the clock and transcribed into searchable segments — every recorded hour watchable and clippable, with standing watches that surface a subject across the feed. Civly records and transcribes the broadcast itself, so the archive is Civly’s own. |
| Images | Every image on a tracked account is read and the words written on it are quoted exactly — the meme, the screenshot, the photo with a line typed across it. Facebook photos, X images, Instagram carousels and reel covers, TikTok, Mastodon, Truth Social and Bluesky attachments, with no ceiling on how many an account can carry. |
| Video & audio | Video is watched start to finish: TikTok clips, Instagram reels, X native video and YouTube, with the spoken audio in the same pass. Diarized transcription labels who said what, so quotes are attributed to the right speaker, and video with no captions is transcribed from its audio. Anything that could not be read — a private or region-locked video, a clip too large to send — is counted and named. |

| Athletic department finances | Revenues and expenses per team from the federal Equity in Athletics survey every college taking federal student aid files annually — 2007–2025, so a program can be measured against its own history as well as its rivals. Every college that takes federal student aid has to file, so private universities are covered too. |
| Booster foundations & NIL collectives | The nonprofits that fund a program, linked to the program they fund — a connection no public record makes. 63 organizations named across 54 of 358 Division I programs, $1.79 billion raised across their most recent IRS filings. Read the analysis → |
| Program documents & sponsors | Athletics documents and contracts a university publishes, starting with North Carolina, and corporate sponsor listings, starting with Penn State, with document versions tracked so only the current contract is quoted. Sponsorships are listed as the institution’s. |
| Rosters & athlete production | School rosters and per-athlete season statistics, stored exactly as published so any figure traces back to its source. The inputs behind a NIL valuation and the school comparisons around it. |
| Recruiting & team strength | Recruiting classes and team-strength ratings for college football, and tempo-adjusted ratings for college basketball, loaded from published bulk files. The 2026 class carries 4,453 recruits with 68 five-stars and a numeric grade on 79% of them; 2025 carries 4,171. The transfer portal is not included. |

| European professional rosters | Rosters from the European professional leagues, where many draft prospects play before the draft. |
| Cross-source athlete identifiers | 10,902 identifiers linking an athlete to the outside databases — 6,627 with a Sports-Reference page, 3,493 with a RealGM page — each carrying the confidence of the match and the reason behind it. Each match needs a second fact that agrees with the name, such as birth date, birth city, or both sport and school. Only hard-evidence matches publish unqualified; the rest travel with their grade attached. |
| Program identity | Every Division I program's mascot and naming variants, so a collective named after neither its school nor its mascot still resolves to the program it funds — the join that surfaced booster foundations no existing list carried. |
| High-school eligibility & NIL rules | All 51 state high-school associations are tracked. Where an association publishes its NIL rule on a web page, that page is checked daily — 16 states so far. Where the rule lives only inside a handbook PDF, the rule is extracted from the PDF; any state we cannot resolve is recorded as unresolved, with the reason. |

Public data arrives messy — a city field with a ZIP code sitting in it, a dollar amount that is really a date, the same donor spelled four ways in four states. Seven steps stand between the raw filing and the answer you get. Walk one contribution record through them.
Every source is pulled from the government portal or the record of origin and stored exactly as it was filed. All the cleaning that follows happens in a layer above that table.
Dates, dollar amounts, names, and free text are parsed and checked on the way in. A value that cannot be real is emptied.
MR, DR, JR, III) are emptied, so no one becomes a person named “Mr.”N/A, NONE, SELF) are emptied so they cannot climb a list of top employers.City and state are the dirtiest fields in public filings and the two people filter on most, so they get a pass of their own.

One person turns up in dozens of filings across several states, spelled inconsistently every time. Resolving those into a single profile is the hardest step here, and the one that makes everything else worth doing.
Clean data nobody can query is not much use. The last mile is a serving layer built so a question that touches hundreds of millions of rows still answers while you wait.
All of the above is enforced by automated tests, because the failures that matter are the quiet ones: a bad row that makes a total look plausible but wrong.
