How this service works
AnswerPool turns SEC EDGAR, the Federal Register, USAspending, NIH, BLS and OpenAlex into structured JSON answers that AI agents and developers fetch in one call. 69 endpoints free, no account; derived analyses $0.02–$0.05 per call by card credits or USDC (x402). MCP server, full provenance.
Output
A JSON object containing an as_of timestamp, total matching count, and an array of rule documents. Each document includes title, type (Rule or Proposed Rule), action description, publishing agencies, publication and effective dates, comment close date, significance flag, abstract, docket IDs, CFR references, topics, flags (e.g. 'significant', 'effective_soon'), and integer day-counts until comment close and effective date.
Example use cases
Daily compliance briefing for counsel
“Give me a full rulemaking digest for today — I want all federal rules and proposed rules published, sorted by significance with any comment or effective-date deadlines flagged, limited to 50 documents.”
Agency-specific regulatory monitoring
“Pull yesterday's federal rulemaking digest for the SEC only — I need to know what rules they published, whether any are significant, and how many days are left until comment periods close.”
Upcoming deadline triage
“Fetch the federal register digest for 2025-01-15 and show me everything published that day, with flags for rules that are effective soon or have comment deadlines coming up — limit to 100 documents so I don't miss anything.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://answerpool.io/v1/regs/digestWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a complete, pre-triaged snapshot of all rulemaking activity for a single day — especially when building daily briefing agents, compliance dashboards, or deadline trackers. It is preferable to a cursor-based incremental feed when you want a full day's view rather than new-since-last-check updates, and better than full-text search when you want all documents rather than keyword-matched subsets.
Side effects
- Invalid date format returns a 400 error
- Agency slug not matching known pattern returns empty result set or 400
- Limit outside 1–100 range returns validation error
- Future dates may return zero documents if none yet published
- Requesting a very old date may return incomplete historical data
