At Manitou Research, we explore how new, transformative technologies can advance the greater public good. The tools we build harness innovation to address real challenges — fostering a future where technology elevates and empowers the people it serves.
We're a team of policy and technology professionals who build tools for policy experts — while making it easier for everyone to track and understand how their elected representatives are working for them. We take privacy seriously and are committed to transparency in how we collect, use, and share data.
Former House Appropriations, Ways & Means, and Budget Committee staff — plus federal law enforcement, corporate, and legal experience across our core and advisory teams.
The first AI-native policy intelligence platform approved for use in the U.S. House of Representatives — citation-anchored, with guardrails appropriate to government use.
A Delaware C Corporation based in Arlington, Virginia. U.S. citizens, U.S. investors, and all data hosted on U.S.-based cloud infrastructure.
We use AI where it belongs — responsibly and effectively. For government users, that means clear limits, like a prohibition on AI providing vote recommendations to Members of Congress.
Our outputs are citation-anchored and traceable to verifiable sources. No "magic box," no hallucinations dressed up as insight.
We do not sell, trade, or share individually identifiable user data, and we use models that don't train on — or unnecessarily retain — your organization's data.
We adhere strictly to federal guidelines, including refraining from unauthorized use of official seals or implied government endorsement. It's a matter of professionalism.
