GovBot.ai Public Data: support page

GovBot.ai Public Data is a read-only connector from Ideation Lab, Corp. that lets an AI assistant read government public records. It needs no GovBot account and carries no GovBot charge.

Last updated 29 October 2026 · Ideation Lab, Corp.

What it reads

Public records published by federal agencies and catalogs, among them Congress.gov, eCFR, USAspending.gov, SEC, Census Bureau, Bureau of Labor Statistics, EPA, FDA, NHTSA, EIA, USGS, NOAA and FEMA, and published local hazard mitigation plans. In the recorded tests, answers name the publisher and date of the record used; check those lines in your own answers.

What it does not do

• It is read-only: it writes nothing back to any source.
• It does not establish a flood zone, insurance premium, eligibility, funding or safety for a property, and it does not take personal details.
• It is not an official product of any government agency.

Current products

The GovBot products published for AI assistants are listed on the Claude connectors page and the ChatGPT plugins page, each with its documentation, privacy policy and terms. Setup steps and example prompts are on the home page.

Data handling

• The connector receives the request the assistant sends: search terms, identifiers, state codes or coordinates. It does not receive the rest of the conversation, the user's identity, or any account.
• To answer a read, GovBot's services query the public sources and return the result. The publisher receives the query from GovBot's servers, not from the user's device.
• GovBot keeps standard request logs and per-network request counters used to enforce rate limits. It stores no account data.
• The assistant's provider handles the conversation under its own terms.

Full detail is in the privacy notice; usage terms are in the terms.
