July has been another very busy month for FastDemocracy. Not only did we have team members on the ground in four different states for legislative conferences, but we also launched a new feature that, to me, is one of the best tools available to anyone tracking state government. Read more on that below.
I will be in Chicago for the NCSL Legislative Summit, along with Grant Campbell, Sara Baker, Anatolij Gelimson, Nicole Rollins and Raymond Ludwig from our team, and I will be joining Tuesday morning’s fun run and the walking challenge. If you will be there, or you just want to nerd out about state legislative policy and procedure, let’s connect.

Watch legislative sessions live with TranscriptAI
TranscriptAI already gives you video, transcripts and clipping for every hearing. Now you do not have to wait for the recording: FastDemocracy this month launched LIVE video monitoring with TranscriptAI.
Professional users can now watch committee and floor debate live and get a transcript that updates as people speak, plus a running AI summary of what is being discussed.
Set an alert on a bill or topic and you will get an email within a minute of it coming up in session, wherever it is happening.
This feature is now live in all 50 states. If you want to see it in action, book a demo and we will walk you through it on a real hearing.
