Worked example — A real precursor from the data

Spotting the AI Act Exemptions before they are drafted

In March 2026, TechAdvocacy Partners EU rapidly scheduled 14 meetings with the IMCO Committee members across a 5-day period. This massive spike in engagement perfectly preceded a surprise amendment to the AI Act that carved out exceptions for foundational model training.

The Developer Experience

The EU Transparency Register provides basic profiles, but actual meetings are buried in unstructured CSVs or scanned PDFs on individual politician's websites. We solve the ingestion so you can just query.

1. Polling via REST

# Poll for meetings concerning the AI Act
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer alt_live_..." \
  "https://api.altdataeu.com/v1/meetings?dossier=2021/0106(COD)"
