What it does

Budget, specifically.

  1. Trace a line item to the fund, authority, and year that support it.
  2. Assemble budget requests with the statutory basis attached.
  3. Compare appropriations across years and programs.
  4. Research how other jurisdictions structure and account for comparable funds.
  5. Answer appropriations questions against the primary record, quickly.

In detail

Connect bills, budgets, appropriations, awards, payroll, vendors, and fiscal impact.

  • Draft fiscal notes for bills, separating one-time, recurring, agency, and statewide impact.
  • Trace appropriations, fund sources, revenue lines, grants, federal awards, payroll, and vendor spend over time.
  • Search audit findings, repeat recommendations, P-card records, and procurement history for risk patterns.
  • Build cost-benefit and economic-impact narratives with assumptions and source support exposed.
