Polilens
Client services

Know what happened in the room and how it connects to the record.

Polilens provides legislative video research and record-linked analysis for campaigns, PACs, parties, and political organizations. Scope can follow selected proceedings, members, bills, or issues.

Capabilities

Defined research and analysis, built around the decisions your team faces.

Coverage, timing, sources, and output format are agreed before work begins.

01

Floor and committee video research

Review selected proceedings and surface consequential remarks, exchanges, commitments, and procedural moments with official video locators.

  • Timestamped clips and reviewed quotations
  • Member, issue, bill, and hearing tags
  • Findings, briefs, or maintained research files

02

Speech-to-record analysis

Connect a floor or committee statement to the exact bill version, amendment, pending question, journal entry, vote, and affected members.

  • Action-level legislative mapping
  • Official source links and record locators
  • Member and caucus response analysis

03

Campaign record intelligence

Review agreed public campaign sources, then test emerging claims, defenses, or position changes against the underlying record.

  • Claim-to-record findings
  • Overbreadth and counterevidence checks
  • Strongest identified record-based defenses
Research output

A usable finding, not a transcript dump.

Output can be organized as a concise brief, a set of findings, a searchable research file, or a combination defined for the engagement.

Additional scoped work

Focused campaign and legislative-record projects.

Claim audit

Break a proposed or newly published claim into testable propositions and identify what the record supports, limits, or contradicts.

Incumbent record audit

Review a defined incumbent record across agreed sessions and source families, identifying supportable findings and claims the record does not sustain.

Challenger public-source review

Review agreed campaign-site and publicly accessible social changes, then check new record claims against the incumbent’s underlying record.

Custom legislative analysis

Reconstruct difficult datasets, map actions across sources, and answer a defined member, caucus, issue, or session-level question.

Define the scope

Start with the jurisdiction, proceedings, members, issues, and delivery window.

Polilens will use those details to define a pilot or scoped research engagement. Availability depends on scope and potential conflicts.
