In the ever-evolving landscape of public policy, quickly identifying impactful bills and developing policy intelligence is key. With thousands of bills introduced each session, policy pros are familiar with this time-consuming task. Identifying legislation that directly impacts your interests is not just critical—it’s a race against time. Staying organized amidst this legislative avalanche is complex. You need innovative tools to streamline this process.

The Challenge of Keeping Up

Imagine trying to navigate a maze without a map, where each turn introduces hundreds of new paths. For policy pros like yourself, this is a daily reality. Hours are invested in not just finding relevant bills, but also understanding their implications. Plural’s AI-detected bill topics mark a turning point in how policy teams approach this daunting task.

AI-Detected Bill Topics: A Game-Changer for Policy Intelligence

Plural’s suite of AI-powered features are designed to complement the work of policy teams. AI-detected bill topics automatically detect and categorize bills into topics using advanced machine learning algorithms. This feature offers a panoramic view of the legislative landscape. Bill topics enable Plural users to quickly hone in on bills that matter most to their work.

How It Works

Human Insight and AI Modeling

Our Policy and Research team defined a list of common and useful topics and applied them to bills from previous sessions. Our Insights team then trained an AI model on those data to identify the topics of bills in new sessions.

Instant Categorization

Plural gets to work as soon as bills are introduced, classifying the bill based on its title and summary as provided by the original source.

Personalized Alerts

Users can set up alerts for specific topics, ensuring they never miss an important bill. This real-time notification system is pivotal for timely analysis and action.

Where to Find It

Find bill topics in two places in Plural:

  1. Advanced search. When searching for bills, utilize Plural’s new “Bill Topics” filter to isolate only those bills with specific topic(s) of your choosing.
  2. On a Bill Detail page. Quickly identify a list of topic(s) associated with a bill in the “Details” tab of its page.
