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 with an as_of timestamp, total matching count, and an array of significant rule documents. Each document includes title, document number, type, action, issuing agencies, publication date, effective date, comment close date, significance flag, abstract, docket IDs, regulation ID numbers, CFR references, topics, URL, and computed deadline flags (days_to_effective, days_to_comment_close, flags array such as 'effective_soon' or 'final_rule_pending_effect').
Example use cases
Compliance deadline monitoring for legal team
“Pull the latest significant federal rules and proposed rules from the last 60 days and flag any that are going effective or closing for comments within the next two weeks — focus only on rules from the SEC.”
Regulatory briefing for policy analysts
“Get me the 25 most recent OIRA-significant proposed rules across all agencies so I can prepare a briefing on major rulemaking activity happening right now.”
Automated regulatory alert pipeline
“Fetch the newest significant federal rules since January 1st 2025, up to 50 results, covering both rules and proposed rules, so I can check if anything new requires our compliance team's attention.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://answerpool.io/v1/regs/significantWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need only the high-signal subset of federal rulemaking — specifically E.O. 12866 significant rules that have undergone OIRA review — rather than scanning the entire Federal Register firehose. It is ideal for compliance teams, policy analysts, and regulatory monitoring agents who need to track economically major rules with upcoming deadlines. Prefer it over a general Federal Register feed when you want pre-filtered significance, deadline flags, and per-agency scoping in a single call.
Side effects
- Invalid agency slug format returns a validation error
- since date in wrong format returns a parse error
- limit outside 1-100 range returns a validation error
- No matching significant rules in the requested window returns count:0 and empty documents array
- Upstream Federal Register API unavailability may cause stale or failed responses
