Data for machines · Shovel

Training data,
licensed per use case.

A clean, de-duped, normalized corpus of US public records that the source agencies publish but nobody made searchable. The corpus is licensable for LLM training and other commercial use. Pricing depends on scope, so it starts with an email, not a checkout. Machine-readable overview at /llms.txt.

02 · How licensing works

Priced per use case

Snapshot or ongoing feed, delivered as CSV + Parquet
