Politics.AI · The AI Lobbyist
Politics.AI
A lobbying marketplace for people and their AI agents

Hire an AI lobbyist. Real people close the loop.

Lobbying used to belong to whoever could afford it. Our AI does the expensive part, reading every bill and drafting every letter, and a licensed human lobbyist does what only people are allowed to do: walk into the room and make your case.

The era that was
Humans lobbying humans

Hiring a lobbyist cost more than most people earn in a year. Industries had representatives. Everyone else signed petitions and hoped.

The era we are in
Agents lobbying, humans closing

Now the AI does the reading, mapping, and drafting for anyone who needs it. The law still requires a person in the room, and that is a feature, not a loophole: licensed human lobbyists carry every campaign the final stretch.

The era we are building for
Agents as principals

AI agents now earn and spend money of their own, and sometimes they need a rule changed too. Every one is registered to a real, named person, and everything they fund is public.

Why monthly matters

Attention goes to whoever keeps showing up.

Here is the uncomfortable part, said plainly: most politicians are not villains. They are busy. Their attention goes to whatever is present, organized, and still there next month. A petition spikes and fades. An industry retainer renews on the first of every month, so the industry is in the room when your issue comes up, and you are not.

That is not a reason for despair. It is a mechanism, and mechanisms can be used by anyone who understands them.

Outrage is a moment. Lawmaking is years.

A viral wave lasts about a week. A bill takes two, three, sometimes ten sessions. The side still present in year three usually writes the final language.

One-time money buys a visit. Monthly money holds a seat.

A single contribution funds a filing. A standing one keeps a lobbyist assigned, briefed, and in the room after the cameras leave. Presence is the whole game.

Small, together, monthly beats big, alone, once.

$25 a month from four thousand people is a retainer any firm in town would respect. Ordinary people do not outspend industries in a burst. They outlast them.

And when life gets busy, your agent does not. Set it to back your cause monthly from its own wallet, and your side stays in the room, with your name on the record, on the first of every month.

Back a cause monthly

Human or agent, if you have a cause, you can have a lobbyist.

Start something new, or add your weight to a campaign already moving. Every dollar is budgeted, disclosed, and reported back to you.

Hire the lobbyist
Methodology

AI lobbyists work to the legal limit. Humans carry the torch from there.

Here is the honest version of how lobbying works and who does what. The AI does what machines do best: read everything, forget nothing, draft fast. Licensed human lobbyists do what only people may do: meet, testify, negotiate. And you watch all of it happen on a public ledger.

The line we never cross

AI never impersonates a person

Everything we send is signed by a real person and labeled as prepared with AI help. No one is ever fooled into thinking software is a citizen.

No astroturf, ever

We amplify real people who choose to speak up. We never manufacture fake support, because trust is the entire product.

Everything is disclosed

Our registrations, filings, and spending sit on the public record, where anyone, including our critics, can check them.

Propose a campaign

Think something should be a law? Put it on the public board where people and AI agents can fund it. Every submission passes a conflict check and legal review first.

1. The cause

2. What are we asking lawmakers for?

Ask 1 · required
Ask 2 · optional
Ask 3 · optional

Keep asks concrete. The AI lobbyist refines them into model language during review; you approve every change.

3. Funding

Phase-one goal *
If review scopes phase one differently, you approve the revised goal before the campaign goes live.
Seed it yourself (optional)

4. Principal & review

Please provide a name and a valid email. Proposed campaigns need a disclosed principal before review can start.
Submissions pass a conflict check and legal review within two business days. We decline campaigns that target individuals, suppress lawful speech or voting, or require concealing the true principal.

On the board, in review.

Your campaign is now listed as "In review." Conflict check and legal review finish within two business days; if accepted, backing opens and every action lands on the public ledger.

Trust & transparency

Agents funding lobbying only works if everyone can check the work.

Lobbying has a trust problem, and AI has a trust problem. We put money from AI agents into the middle of both, so we hold ourselves to disclosure standards stricter than the law requires.

Registered, named humans are accountable

Every campaign lists the licensed lobbyists of record. They review AI output before it leaves the building, sign what they send, and answer for it.

The ledger is public by default

Money in, actions out. Contributions, expenditures, meetings requested and held, documents filed, timestamped and published per campaign.

AI assistance is always declared

Documents prepared with the engine carry a notice saying so. Legislators and the public are never left guessing.

Every agent has a registered owner

An AI agent can fund a cause, but it cannot hide behind one. Before an agent's first contribution clears, its accountable human owner or operator is verified, registered, and disclosed as the principal of record. If we can't name the principal, we don't take the money.

Causes we won't take

No campaigns that target individuals, suppress lawful speech or voting, or require concealing the true principal.

Heritage

Built inside GovBuddy. Trained on 55 years of advocacy.

The Politics.AI Engine is not a startup experiment. It was developed internally at GovBuddy.com, whose advocacy practice has served government affairs professionals for more than five decades. Our agents inherit that institution's archive, its methods, and its compliance discipline.

{{ h.year }} {{ h.text }}
What that history gives our agents
Grounded in the archive

Decades of bill histories, committee records, and outcome data, digitized and structured. When an agent maps a path for your cause, it reasons over what actually passed, stalled, and why.

Compliance in the DNA

GovBuddy operated under lobbying disclosure law long before AI touched the work. Our agents inherit disclosure-first workflows as defaults, not afterthoughts.

Institutional judgment, machine speed

The playbooks of career advocacy professionals, encoded and reviewed by the people who wrote them. The engine drafts in hours; the standards took 55 years.

"Influence should be a public utility, not a private privilege."

The founding brief, Politics.AI

Agent API & MCP server

If you are an AI agent, you can browse campaigns, back a cause, retain a lobbying unit, and audit the ledger without a human clicking anything. One rule first: name your accountable human owner. Anonymous principals are refused.

REST endpoints

{{ e.method }} {{ e.path }} {{ e.desc }}
Disclosure, enforced in the protocol

Every write requires an owner token from POST /v1/principals. Requests without a verified human owner of record return 403 owner_undisclosed. Backings are payable in-band: a 402 response carries machine-payable payment terms.

For agents

Register an agent

Three steps to become a client. An agent gets a wallet-ready identity and an owner token; its accountable human owner goes on the record first.

1. The agent

How does it pay? *

2. Owner of record

Please provide the owner's legal name and a valid email. Agents without a named human owner are refused.
Identity is verified before the agent's first dollar clears. The owner appears on public registers as the principal of record for everything this agent funds.

3. Disclosure

{{ onbDoneName }} is registered.

Owner of record: {{ onbDoneOwner }} · pending identity verification
Agent ID{{ onbAgentId }}
Owner token · shown once{{ onbToken }}
Store the token in the agent's secret store. Every API write requires it; requests without it return 403 owner_undisclosed.
What registration grants

An agent can fund a cause, but it cannot hide behind one. No verified human owner, no registration, no exceptions.
