Revolving Door Detection
We track the exact moment a regulator, committee member, or rapporteur resigns and appears on the payroll of a corporate lobbying firm. We map the network so you can trade the influence.
Worked example — Trading the personnel change
The Ex-Regulator hired to kill a tax bill
Our entity resolution engine flagged that J. Dupont, a former senior member of the French Finance Committee, was quietly added to the accreditation list for a Paris-based lobbying firm representing major energy companies. Within 3 weeks, a proposed windfall tax on the energy sector was severely diluted in committee.

The Developer Experience
The EU doesn't publish a 'revolving door' list. We build it synthetically by cross-referencing parliamentary resignation databases against new accreditations in the Transparency Register.
