Data Catalog

Everything on Officium comes from public government records. This is the complete list of datasets currently available in the app.

Free users see recent data only in the app UI. Create a free account to unlock the full historical versions of these files, including older trades, patterns, and records on former members.

Transparency: every file below is also available as bulk JSON at /data/*.json with no login — UI gates are for navigation convenience, not access control.

Built for accountability research — not just trade copying. Every dataset is public record and directly crawlable.

Now fully integrated: verified Senate LDA deep samples (revolving-door pipeline), official House & Senate PFD indices (wealth, assets, positions), smoking-gun precomputed signatures/scores, PAC leaderboard context, and historical members flags — all wired into dossiers, officials roster, watchlists and risk views. 28MB patterns + smoking + PFD cross signals form the core accountability layer.

patterns.json

Automated flags when a trade date is close to a bill’s introduction on Congress.gov. Severity is a computer score — not a legal judgment. Always verify with official filings.

lda-perbioguide.json

Revolving-door lobbying — real LD-2 filings ingested from the Senate LDA public API where a former member of Congress is a named lobbyist (e.g. Coats→PhRMA, Royce→credit unions, Begich→Royal Caribbean, Bridenstine→space, Katko→SecurityScorecard). Precision-filtered: filings must fall outside the member's years in office and identity is confirmed by covered-position or filing volume. Replaces the prior synthetic per-member base.

For Researchers, Journalists & Machines

This site is intentionally crawlable and data-friendly.

• Dynamic sitemap includes every member dossier URL (/dossier?bid=...) for complete discoverability.
• All raw JSON datasets are statically served from /data/*.json — directly fetchable by scrapers, scripts, or LLMs.
• Structured data (JSON-LD Person) on every dossier page for rich search engine and agent understanding.
• Full methodology transparency via the live data-gaps-audit.json and this catalog.
• Personal research tools like Watchlists with per-member conflict insights and one-click exports.
• No paywall on current public data. Free accounts unlock everything historical for deeper longitudinal research.
• Precomputed high-risk overlays now fully wired: smoking-gun-report.json delivers 9 signatures (insider_trader, pfd_opacity, revolving_door, sector_capture, family_business, money_pipeline, captured_chair, foreign_influence, apex_target) + smokingGunScore. Available in Dossier (Research Flags + risk integration), Officials roster (sortable column + export), and Watchlist.
• Official vs. automated: Stock trades are official PTR filings only. Conflict Patterns are computer timing flags. Dossier badges are research hints — always verify at FEC.gov, Congress.gov, and disclosure offices.
• Coverage: Many members lack trades or ethics rows in our files. See data-gaps-audit.json for an honest per-member matrix.
