About This Site

What We Do

The House Oversight Document Explorer is a free, public research tool that makes large collections of government documents more accessible. We use artificial intelligence to generate summaries, extract keywords, and enable full-text search across thousands of documents released by the U.S. House Oversight Committee.

Our platform allows users to quickly find relevant documents, understand their contents at a glance through AI-generated summaries, and access the original source materials for detailed review.

Who This Is For

This resource is designed for anyone interested in reviewing publicly available government documents, including:

  • Researchers: Academic researchers studying government oversight, policy, or related topics
  • Journalists: Media professionals investigating stories or fact-checking information
  • Legal Professionals: Attorneys and paralegals researching relevant documentation
  • Students: Those studying government, law, or political science
  • General Public: Citizens interested in transparency and government accountability

We believe public documents should be publicly accessible. This tool helps bridge the gap between document availability and document discoverability.
