Follow the money in politics worldwide
Every contribution tells a story. We trace the financial flows that shape elections around the globe, connecting the dots from donors to candidates to outcomes. Because democracy works better when citizens can see who's funding what.
Sunlight is the best disinfectant. We believe the public has a right to understand who finances their elections and where that money goes.
When financial relationships are visible, elected officials and donors alike are more accountable to the voters they serve.
An informed electorate makes better decisions. We equip citizens, journalists, and researchers with the data they need to ask good questions.
We're creating the most comprehensive, traceable map of money in political systems worldwide. By processing official filings across jurisdictions and connecting the dots between donors, parties, candidates, and committees, we reveal the financial networks that shape democracies.

We maintain rigorous quality standards. When you cite our data, you can trust it's accurate and up-to-date with official sources.
Every data point links back to its original filing. Verify anything yourself. We show our work.
We process the complete historical record, not just samples. Bulk files, electronic filings, amendments, everything.
