> a connected graph of federal law with tens of millions of edges across millions across hundreds of thousands of sections, and I think there will be a lot of powerful applications of that dataset
I am mostly curious because I built similar graph, but in different domain, so I am wondering what are the applications and what would be go to market strategy.
- SebRollen 12d agoYeah, it's a good question, let me know if you figure out a good answer :) Honestly, my focus right now is to make the site useful rather than profitable. This is a side-project that spawned out of needing something like this for my own research, so haven't figured out how/if I'll monetize it yet. The one idea I have related to the graph structure that I think could be valuable right now is letting users "subscribe" to particular sections of the law, with alerts for when there are new bills in Congress that might affect or alter it. The graph currently goes from bills > public laws > USC > CFR, so users could monitor a regulation and get notified as a bill moves its way through congress
