We set out with one goal
to increase government transparency
Our Story
Abstract was founded in 2020 with a mission to increase government transparency. What began as an R&D engineering project at Loyola Marymount University has grown into a VC-backed AI company with teams in New York and Los Angeles.
For the first five years, our founding team worked closely with lobbyists, legislators, and public policy professionals to build the first version of Abstract: an AI-powered bill tracker for the state of California. Through hands-on development and real-world use, we quickly uncovered a deeper challenge—not just tracking legislation, but making sense of it. Policy analysis and interpretation proved to be a major Achilles’ heel for teams of all sizes.
This insight led us to a broader opportunity: to reinvent how policy is tracked, analyzed, and surfaced for enterprise teams operating in today’s fast-changing regulatory environment.
Today, Abstract partners with Fortune 500 companies and Am Law 200 firms across the U.S. to deliver real-time, contextualized policy intelligence. Our platform helps legal, compliance, and government affairs teams understand not just what’s happening—but why it matters, and how it impacts their organization.
