Policy affects your life.
BigGov makes it personal.
Policies affect millions. Almost nobody reads them.
Governments, parties, and regulatory bodies publish policy in complicated language across hundreds of pages. But people are unique. The same policy means entirely different things depending on who you are.
Complicated language
Hundreds of pages of legal and regulatory text that most citizens cannot parse, even when it directly affects their rent, pension, or rights.
Every citizen is different
The same policy means different things depending on where you live, what you earn, whether you have children, or what kind of work you do.
Manifestos need interpretation
Election programmes, coalition agreements, and legislative proposals all require context citizens do not have to make informed democratic choices.
Institutions have no feedback
No way to know how citizens engage with the policies they make or propose. Publication is the end of the line.
Personalises per citizen
Same regulation, different explanation depending on who is reading it
Section-level intelligence
Which paragraph caused confusion, not just which policy
Coverage gap detection
When citizens ask about something the policy does not address, BigGov flags it
Closed feedback loop
AI recommends what to fix. Publish a clarification. Before/after comprehension tracked. Demographics, trends, and behaviour patterns inform every decision
Alerts, events & Spotlight
Threshold monitoring, external event detection, document comparison. Push documents to citizens and track engagement. Structurally neutral
Four steps.
One continuous loop.
Institutions publish
Policies, programmes, regulatory changes, and manifesto commitments enter BigGov. The platform processes them automatically, extracting every section, clause, and obligation.
Citizens engage
Each document is explained in plain language and adapted to the citizen's personal circumstances. They read, ask questions, and interact. Every question they ask is a signal.
Intelligence flows back
Every interaction generates anonymised data. Institutions see comprehension per section, sentiment, citizen questions, coverage gaps, demographics, behaviour patterns, and engagement trends. External events that spike engagement are detected automatically.
Act and measure
AI generates prioritised recommendations. Publish a clarification and track before/after comprehension. Push documents to citizens via Spotlight. Prepare guidance before scheduled events. The loop closes.
Follow institutions. Read policies adapted to your life.
Follow institutions
Choose which ministries, parties, or regulatory bodies matter to you. See every policy they publish.
Personalised policy
Plain language summary. Concrete example with real numbers. Personal impact based on your job, location, family. What you can actually do.
Ask in your own words
AI answers from the source document. Personal impact analysis based on your profile. Like having a lawyer who speaks human.
Stay informed
Get notified when policies change, new ones are published, or a gap you asked about gets clarified by the institution.
Ask anything about any policy. In your own words.
BigGov AI answers using only the source document. Personal impact analysis based on your profile, grounded in the source document.
Grounded in the source
Every answer is traceable to a specific section of the original document. Nothing invented.
Personalised to you
It knows where you live, what you do, what your family looks like. The answer is specific to your life.
Conversational
Ask follow-ups. Change your scenario. Say "what if I have kids" or "what about Potsdam instead." It adapts.
Understand how citizens actually engage with your documents.
Portfolio overview
Reach, comprehension, sentiment, and coverage gaps across all your documents. One live dashboard for your entire policy portfolio.
Section-level intelligence
Which paragraph of which document caused confusion. Comprehension hotspots, not just document-level metrics.
Coverage gap detection
Citizens asked about it but your document does not address it. Ranked by frequency, tracked by trend.
Citizen behaviour patterns
Conversation depth, session resolution, question sequences. How citizens actually navigate your content.
AI recommendations
Which sections to clarify, which gaps to address, which documents to spotlight. Prioritised by citizen impact.
Clarification tracking
Issue a clarification and track how it changes comprehension over time. The feedback loop, closed.
Event intelligence
External events that trigger engagement spikes, detected and correlated automatically. Prepare guidance before the wave arrives.
Policy affects everyone. Understanding it should not require a law degree.
Citizens use BigGov for free. Always. Institutions pay for the anonymised intelligence that citizen engagement generates.
The platform is structurally neutral. Paying clients cannot influence how their policies are presented. The neutrality engine and mandate tracker are not modifiable by any external party.
BigGov is a company in formation, headquartered in Germany. We are targeting launch in 2027.
Built by people who care about civic infrastructure.
We believe democracy works better when citizens understand the policies that affect them.
