Find My Legislator Tool

Find My Legislator is a free public-facing tool that helps people identify the congressional and state officials who represent them based on their home address. Designed to make civic participation more accessible, the experience is simple for users — but supported by a complex technical build.

To power accurate legislator lookup across multiple levels of government, we developed a custom web application backed by custom data infrastructure and our own API. This gave us greater control over how data is processed, structured, and delivered, while keeping the interface clear and easy to use.

Data Architecture and Development

This project is a strong example of the kind of work we do for organizations that need more than a standard brochure site.

Find My Legislator required us to work with custom datasets, develop custom lookup functionality, and create a tailored application experience around a specific use case. It also demonstrates our ability to build API-driven tools that transform structured data into something useful for real people.

It was a custom-built product designed to solve a real-world data problem.

Used Nationwide

Find My Legislator has quickly become a strong example of what custom civic technology can do when thoughtful user experience is paired with reliable data infrastructure.

It was been reviewed by congressional staff for early validation and we received really positive feedback.
It's been shared across social media platforms and used in all 50 US states.
Referenced in responses from AI systems such as ChatGPT, Copilot and Claude
Quickly ranked high in search results (SEO) for legislator lookup queries

That momentum helps validate both the usefulness of the tool and the technical foundation behind it. It's also helped us prepare for the next phase of the product.
