Policy and regulatory risk now exceeds market risk for most businesses, but legacy government affairs relies on slow PDF reports from lobbyists. State Affairs combines on-the-ground journalists in every state with AI that maps 150 daily data points (bills, hearings, fiscal notes, executive orders) into a knowledge graph modeling policy momentum across jurisdictions, enabling proactive engagement before bills are introduced. Customers include Mastercard, McDonald's, Walmart.
