Disclosed Capitol is a platform that tracks and analyzes stock trades made by members of the US Congress. We aggregate data from official government sources, enrich it with market data, and make it searchable and transparent.
Members of Congress have access to non-public information through briefings, committee hearings, and legislative drafting. Studies have shown that congressional portfolios have historically outperformed the market. Whether this reflects skill, luck, or access to privileged information is an ongoing debate — and the data is now available for you to decide.
Yes. All STOCK Act filings are public records. However, they're scattered across multiple government websites, often buried in PDFs, and lack any analytical tools. We aggregate, parse, and enrich this data so you don't have to.
Our systems continuously monitor government disclosure portals and process new filings as they become available, providing near real-time updates. However, the STOCK Act allows politicians up to 45 days to disclose trades, so there is an inherent lag between when a trade occurs and when it becomes public.
We use automated parsing with AI-powered processing for scanned documents, followed by multi-step verification against market data. Matches that don't meet our confidence threshold are flagged for review. That said, source filings are self-reported by politicians and may contain errors.
The STOCK Act requires disclosure in value ranges (e.g., "$15,001 - $50,000"), not exact amounts. We use statistical methods to estimate values within these ranges. Annual Financial Disclosures (AFDs) also use ranges for asset values.
It means the trades you see are not real-time. By the time a trade appears on our platform, the market may have already moved significantly. This data is best used for research, transparency analysis, and pattern detection — not for real-time copy-trading.
Please use our Contact page or email disclosedcapitol@gmail.com with details. Include the politician name, trade date, and what appears incorrect. We take data accuracy seriously and will investigate promptly.
