Legal Analytics - Rulemaking / eCFR / EDGAR / Citations
Aggregate rulemaking, eCFR, and EDGAR trends from keyless public sources, then count - never infer.
See it run - a worked example, 100% in this browser tab
The problem
Understanding regulatory and filing trends usually means manual tallying across Federal Register, eCFR, and EDGAR, or paying for opaque analytics that rank and summarize with models you cannot audit.
The local-first solution
A deterministic plugin pulls live keyless public sources through the GDBS server proxy and aggregates the rows entirely client-side by transparent counts and bins, with citation analysis over your own pasted text running fully in the browser.
What it does
Federal Register rulemaking trends by agency and document type across a date range
eCFR metrics: title/agency word counts and historical change counts
SEC EDGAR filing analytics by form, company, and time
Citation analysis with a co-occurrence network over a pasted document set
Counts and bins only - no ranking, summarizing, or model inference
No API key held on the client; keyless sources only
Honest scope
There is no case-law corpus, so no judge or case-law analytics. Modes 1-3 are empirical aggregations of exactly what each live keyless source returns; mode 4 is a deterministic citation parse over your own pasted text, with nothing leaving the browser for that mode. No legal advice.
Authorities cited
Federal Register API (federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1). Public, keyless. Daily journal of the U.S. government; rows carry agency, document type, and publication date.
Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (eCFR) API (ecfr.gov/developers/documentation/api/v1). Public, keyless. Current codified federal regulations and structural/word-count metadata.
SEC EDGAR full-text search (efts.sec.gov) and submissions (data.sec.gov/submissions). Public, keyless; requires only a descriptive User-Agent (set server-side). Form type, company, and filing date.
The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation - citation forms (U.S. reporter, U.S.C., C.F.R., Pub. L.) recognized by the self-contained citation parser. No external corpus is consulted.
Aggregate the trends
Run the analytics in your browser and route the counts into a Sandbox set or a Worklog case. Your pasted documents stay on your device, and the plugin holds no key.
